Salé lies on the Atlantic coast, along the northwestern edge of the country, just across the Bou Regreg River from the bustling capital, Rabat. This historic city, often overshadowed by its more famous neighbor, captivates visitors with its charming blend of rich history, vibrant culture, and picturesque landscapes. Known for its medieval medina, which feels like a step back in time with its maze of narrow streets and traditional Moroccan architecture, Salé offers a more relaxed and authentic atmosphere compared to the tourist hotspots. The Great Mosque of Salé, one of the largest in Morocco, stands as a testament to the city’s ancient religious significance, while the nearby Corsair Republic Museum provides intriguing insights into its past as a haven for pirates. Visitors can stroll along the quiet beaches, explore the traditional souks filled with local crafts and aromas, or visit the enchanting Salé Medersa, an ancient Islamic school adorned with exquisite tilework and ornate carvings—all contributing to the city’s unique charm.
