The Blue Pearl
A dreamy Rif Mountain town washed in blue hues and artisanal charm.
Chefchaouen's blue-washed lanes wind through a compact medina set against the Rif Mountains. It's relaxed, photogenic, and perfect for slow travel—shop for handwoven textiles, sample local goat cheese, and hike to hilltop viewpoints.
Reach by bus or private transfer from Tangier, Tetouan, or Fez. No train station in town.
Small riads and guesthouses in the medina; book ahead in spring.
