WHY GO?
Perched at the tip of pale-gold sands, this ancient Moroccan town is a jumble of flat-roofed, salt-weathered houses hugged by fortified stone walls. Once known as the Port of Timbuktu, this is where spices, gold – and slaves – arrived by camel train across the Sahara to be taken to Europe and the Americas. Although still a working port, it’s best known as a laid-back beach destination with a fascinating souk, amazing food and chic shopping.

These walls have also basked under camera spotlights – featuring in Game of Thrones and Orson Welles’ Othello.
