The best way to begin a tour of Larache is away from it. we will indeed have a wonderful view over the city by going to the beach on the other side of the Wadi.
For this, we must leave Larache towards the site of Lixus. At about 4 Km you meet a dike s advance between the ocean and river. The trawler, hampered by the bar, struggling and pitching forward s' to engulf this shelter. In summer, many cafes allow you to enjoy the view over the city, which juts out from the other side of the wadi. The beach, very beautiful stretches for miles.
After this look for understanding the layout of the medina, you will enter the city itself.

It reached a mosque, and beyond, a plaza built on the old city wall (great view of the lower valley of Lukkous).
On the spot, a bastion restored XVI hit arms of Charles V, houses a small archaeological museum. A large number of coins and two beautiful sculptures on the floor below are not sufficient to give him a lot of interest.

From there, we will return to the Avenue Mohammed V coutournant Al Fatah, the castle of the Stork, a fortress built in 1578 acute flankers on the order of Moulay Ahmed al Mansour Ed Dahbi by prisoners of the Battle of Three kings.
