Coastal Morocco continues heating up
The coastal destinations of Morocco have achieved the accolades of being the tourist hotspot for international tourists.
The vast majority of tourists and residents come to Morocco to laze about on the beach and in the coastal resorts. The fabulous climate all through the year and its picture perfect beaches has been highlighted as the main reasons for its popularity among holidaymakers, allowing them to spend the winter months relaxing on a beach. A visit to Morocco also has a number of other benefits, such as the chance to experience an exotic culture.
The increase in tourism drives the real estate market in Morocco as International visitors to Morocco were increased to 13% in 2007 and have led to increased need for rental properties in the country. Fleewinter.com stated that the proximity to beach maximizes the appeal of a rental property to visiting leisure travelers.
European tourists are venturing beyond Spain to areas like Costa Vista which indicates that Morocco could soon outshine many established European markets. Morocco also offers a wide choice of homes at affordable prices and it is perfect for different types of buyers, such as holiday home buyers and property investors.
East accessibility makes it much easier for holidaymakers to explore the region, potentially making it a more attractive destination for foreign property buyers as well. Therefore, Alisdair Luxmoore has suggested that prospective investors look at coastal areas in easy reach of international airports, such as Marrakech.
Statistics show that the largest group of foreigners to visit the country are French followed closely by Spaniards. Due to increased tourism, the Minister of Moroccan Tourism and Craft Industry stated that tourism is now the chief source of investment and job creation.
