Across the Strait of Gibraltar, beyond the mythical Pillars of Hercules, lies Tangier: favorite gathering point of artists like Paul Bowles, Albert Camus and Henri Matisse, the Moroccan Saint-Tropez bewitched Mick Jagger and John Lennon with its timeless charm. Today an international mix of trendy ateliers and art galleries, the “white city” keeps acting like a lighthouse over the surrounding waters. Plan your trip between June and October for some extra sunshine.
