Historic Mazagan & Lighthouses

El Jadida, formerly known as Mazagan, preserves a remarkable ensemble of Portuguese military architecture on the Atlantic coast. This UNESCO World Heritage site features a 16th-century star-shaped fortress characterized by massive stone ramparts and historic gates like Bab El Bhar. Beyond the citadel, the city’s maritime heritage is defined by the Phare Sidi Bouafi, a lighthouse built in 1916, and the smaller Phare Sidi Daoui, reflecting its enduring role as a strategic port.
