The Morocco property market may be boosted by news that it has been tipped as a favourable place to enjoy a beach and surfing holiday.

In its list of top non-European destinations, the Guardian has singled out Essaouira as an outstanding place to enjoy sun, sea and surf – at an affordable price.

The paper noted that a family of four could eat out for £30, while the old town offers plenty for sightseers and the beach provides a variety of watersports opportunities.

Such attractions may encourage more visitors to the resort, something that could help investors in Morocco property earn a good return from renting out properties there.

Highlights of Essaouira include the Grand Place, a large fort, while the history of the town dates back to the 7th century.

Recent years have seen a notable rise in tourist numbers.
