Martil Beach, Taza-Al Hoceima-Taounate, Morocco
This gorgeous little town heaves in the summer when Moroccans flock to the Mediterranean Sea. The white, sandy beaches, warm waters, and views of lush green mountains that appear to rise out of the water make this a popular destination, not only in summer but year-round, as locals from nearby cities like Tangier head here for weekend breaks. The boardwalk is long and perfect for wandering after a day on the beach, with stops at one of the cafés or ice cream shops that dot the way.
