French nationals remain the largest group of foreign tourists, followed by British visitors. By November 2024, Morocco had already welcomed nearly 16 million tourists, marking a 20 percent increase compared to the same period in 2023. With these numbers continuing to climb, Moroccan authorities are optimistic about reaching a new milestone next year, aiming for 17.5 million visitors.
