PORT TOUR OF THE PORT OF CASABLANCA:
The Port of Casablanca handles over 21.3 million tons of cargo each year and stretches across almost eight kilometers of land (six hundred and five hectares). The Casablanca port also caters to the fishing industry, has a marina for smaller vessels and has a shipyard available for repairs. But it is the commercial traffic that secures its reputation as the most important of all the ports in Morocco.
