Tangier, Oued Laou and Al Hoceima: market towns and local tables across 12 days

Tangier gives the itinerary its first register through Tangier's Europe; the pace changes in Cabo Negro around Mediterranean headland east of Tetouan; the finish in Al Hoceima follows walking sections and overland road links; the pacing preserves city and landscape around each table.

Het verhaal

Tangier, Jebha, and Al Hoceima are not interchangeable: city of strait light, a working harbour, and Al Hoceima's cliffs make the chapters distinct.

Day 1 gives Tangier, before Nador, room for literary memory; day 3 before Tangier keeps Nador focused on north-coast continuation; day 7 before Tangier keeps Jebha focused on small Rif fishing port beneath steep Mediterranean. By day 9 toward Tangier, Cala Iris brings in small Rif Mediterranean cove; on day 12 before Tangier, Al Hoceima holds strong local identity.

Across Tanger-Tétouan-Al Hoceïma and Oriental, the contrast runs from city of strait light in Tangier to strong local identity in Al Hoceima; walking sections and overland road links give a working harbour in Jebha room and preserve time for markets without rushing.

Treat Tangier to Tetouan as the first live decision: confirm dated trail access at Al Hoceima and realistic daily effort and current carriageway conditions at Al Hoceima and road-network timing; keep Al Hoceima's final connection open to live conditions.
