Al Hoceima (Arabic: الحسيمة)[2] is a city in the north of Morocco, on the northern edge of the Rif Mountains and on the Mediterranean coast. It is the capital city of the Al Hoceima Province. The city is a known tourist destination despite its small size. It has a population of about 56,716, according to the 2014 census.[1]
Al Hoceima is recognized as one of the cleanest and safest cities in Morocco. It is distinguished by its pristine sandy beaches such as Cala Iris, Bades, Quemado, and Tala Youssef, as well as its mountainous rocky terrain. Efforts are underway to further integrate parts of Al Hoceima into the municipality through the construction of new roads, aimed at improving transportation infrastructure.
