Morocco Welcomes Record 17.4 Million Tourists in 2024, Boasting 20% Increase from 2023
In a significant boost to its tourism industry, Morocco has announced a record-breaking 17.4 million tourists in 2024, marking a substantial 20% increase from the previous year. According to the tourism ministry, this impressive growth can be largely attributed to the large number of Moroccans living abroad who visited their home country, making up nearly half of the total tourist arrivals. This surge in tourism is expected to have a positive impact on Morocco's economy, with the tourism sector being a major contributor to the country's GDP. With its rich cultural heritage, beautiful beaches, and vibrant cities, Morocco continues to be an attractive destination for travelers from around the world, including those interested in cultural tourism, adventure travel, and eco-tourism. The country's efforts to improve its tourism infrastructure and services are also paying off, making it an ideal destination for tourists looking for a unique and memorable experience. As the tourism industry continues to grow, Morocco is poised to become a leading tourist destination in the region, offering a wide range of activities and experiences for visitors, from exploring historic cities like Marrakech and Fez to enjoying the beautiful scenery of the Atlas Mountains.
