Exploring Tangier


We had a full day exploring Tangier, though it was shortened as we found there was a Cafe Paul in the marina which felt like an excellent place to have an extended breakfast after a refreshing shower.

The marina is pretty central so it was only a short walk to the centre. Our first stop was the fish market (fascinating!) and then headed deeper into the Medina heading up to the Kasbah.


I head someone playing the guitar and stopped for a listen:


It was a lot less touristy than (say) Marrakesh, with people just living their lives:


Some went shopping while I visited an art gallery before returning to the boat and the amazing dinner the skipper magicked up from ingredients bought in the Medina we'd visited earlier.

That’s no guitar, that’s an oud - one of my favourite instruments.

Lovely pics. I love the fact that all those people are Tangerines...

Thanks for the comments and correction re. the oud (though I thought they were Doctor Who baddies)
