Moroccan tourism grows despite Middle East unrest
The Moroccan tourism sector achieved strong performance during the first months of 2026, as the kingdom welcomed 7.7 million tourists from January to May, representing a 7% increase compared to the same period last year. Travel revenues also recorded an extraordinary rise of over 21%, despite challenges caused by the geopolitical situation in the Middle East and rising transportation costs. International demand for tourism in Morocco continued to grow despite higher fuel and transportation prices, with hotel bookings recovering and overnight stays increasing by 9% to 14 million nights by the end of April. These results highlight the importance of tourism as a major source of hard currency, with expectations of an influx of tourists during the summer season, as 7.74 million airline seats have been booked and new international flight routes have been added.
