Traditional Moroccan hammam
This oriental ritual that originates from Roman times is a staple in the lives of Moroccans. The baths are both a social meeting place and a place to relax, enriching both the mind and body. This is an experience you should not miss while you are in Morocco.
The hot steam dilates blood vessels and helps the body to relax. Rough skin floats away, toxins are eliminated, muscle pain alleviated, and stress released. It is perfect after a day of surfing.
