In line with this vision, Mazagan Beach & Golf Resort, a tourism attraction in the country, has boosted summer packages to entice GCC guests to extend their stays.
H.E. Haddad said: “We are on track to achieve the goal of 40% of our tourism being driven by domestic tourists. However, internationally we are on a high trajectory, as we have succeeded in promoting Morocco as a hospitable and distinguished destination across the globe.”
Morocco’s tourism strategy has been highly successful in traditional markets like Spain and France as well as newer markets such as the Arab World, including the GCC countries and Eastern Europe.
Morocco has daily air connections to Gulf countries such as Saudi Arabia, UAE and Qatar. It also plans to launch daily flights to other counties, including Kuwait.
Stephan Killinger, President, Mazagan Beach & Golf Resort said: “Other types of tourism are also contributing to a big chunk of the overall sector in Morocco. Our records show that GCC countries represent one of the highest footfall at the resort, among new markets.”
