Safi, Morocco: Port and Crafts City on the Atlantic Coast
Located on the Atlantic coast of western Morocco, Safi is an important port city in the Marrakech-Safi region, about 250 kilometers from the capital, Rabat. Famous for its blue coastline and rich fishing industry, this historic city is also one of Morocco's main phosphate exporting ports, and its economy is based on fishing, chemicals and traditional handicrafts. Safi is best known for its pottery, where local artisans produce colorful and uniquely patterned vessels dating back to the Middle Ages, which are still representative of Moroccan craftsmanship. The city's Kasbah Castle and the ruins of a 16th-century Portuguese fortress bear witness to its glorious past as a trading port. As the gateway between Morocco's interior and the Atlantic Ocean, Safi retains a quaint Arabian flavor while exuding the energy of a port city, making it an ideal place to experience the charm of Morocco's maritime culture and crafts.
