El Jadida Hostels - Hostel List for El Jadida, Morocco

El Jadida, literally meaning the new one is a nice old town on the Atlantic coast, about 100 kilometer south of Casablanca. El Jadidas open stretch of beach is the towns main highlight. The beach is a Moroccan destination in the summer, large crowds of Moroccans from Casablanca, Marrakesh, and Fes arrive to tan, swim, and play soccer on the enormous beach. Its a amazing location to swim! The Medina is very European in style, a walled seaside small town with a few churches lining the roads. The medina was founded in 1513 by the Portuguese and named Mazagan. In 1769, the city was captured by the Moroccans and re named El Jadida. The old town, also called the Cite Portugaise is constantly being restored. Dont miss a walk around the old town (especially around sunset over the Atlantic), exploring the walls and many chapels. The Portuguese Cistern (9 6) is worth a look if there is water in the underground vault. However, its a bit of a disappointment if there is not a thin layer of water to mirror its roof. The cistern was used in Orson Welles film Othello.
