Asilah is an artsy beach town located in northern Morocco near Tangier. Throughout its long history, the town has been under Arab Muslim, Portuguese and Spanish control. All of these influences can be seen in the mixed styles of architecture and the diverse cuisine in Asilah today. Start your exploration in the heart of the city: the medina. The walled town center has windy streets lined by historic buildings decorated with colorful murals. This neighborhood is where you will find authentic Moroccan souks, marketplaces full of treasures such as spices, jewelry, and custom artisanal crafts. Venture beyond the walls of the medina to explore Asilah’s iconic ramparts. They are the ideal location for a stroll or a bike ride. You can also head down to the few sandy beaches for a dip in the sea. Read on for our picks of the top Airbnb vacation rentals in Asilah, Morocco.
