Morocco Tourism Hits 14.1 Mln Arrivals, Sets New August Record

Rabat – Morocco welcomed 14.1 million tourists by the end of August, 2026, marking a 4.5% year-on-year rise with 608,000 additional arrivals according to a statement from the Ministry of Tourism.

For the first time, August crossed the 2 million tourist record, making an increase of 3% compared to last year, a result, attributed by the same source to the summer season and the sustained level of tourist activity. 

“The 2023-2026 roadmap had showcased that investing in a well-targetted manner in key levers yields results in terms of both the flow and socio-economic impact,” Minister Fatim-Zahra Ammor said, as quoted in the statement.

For the governmental official, more potential is envisioned. “The next phase should enable us to significantly expand it and ensure that more regions and tourism-sector stakeholders benefit from it.”
