Casablanca - Docking
Casablanca Yacht Club was pulled down several years ago and the area is no longer accessible to yachts. The port area is being completely re-developed to integrate it into the city, with new cruise ship docks, accommodation, retail outlets and a new shipyard and marina. This is still on-going.
Latest reports from yachts trying to enter the port are that the port is closed and it’s not even possible to anchor inside the breakwater wall.
Contact the Port Authority before attempting to enter the port; they will probably advise to continue to Mohammmedia, 10 miles to the north.

Casablanca and Mohammedia – Visit November 2013
We arrived at night in windy conditions from the Algarve. Wanting to enter a port you can’t miss we chose Casablanca. The port entrance was hard to find, the light was out of order, nobody on CH 16. We docked on an empty floating pier where the marina is being constructed – next to the old part of town.
In the morning we were told this was not allowed, there was no other place in the port for yachts, and we were sent to
Mohammedia (12 nm). Mohammedia is safe to enter (port entrance light out of order too), visiting yachts are welcome in the small marina, but there are few places for boats with 2m draft. A good place to leave the boat for land trips.
