Are you stopping in Casablanca on your Mediterranean cruise and wondering what to do in one day in Casablanca? Then you are in the right spot. My husband and I just returned from our cruise stop in Casablanca. From all the ports of call, this was by far the hardest to plan. Morocco is a bit of a mess especially on the streets , so we did not feel comfortable exploring by ourselves.
We decided to visit Casablanca and Rabat since Marrakech is too far away. It was a busy day, but we saw a lot and we loved it! To make the planning a bit easier for you, I will share all of my experience and insider tips on how to spend a day in Morocco from the Casablanca cruise port. This post may contain affiliate links.

My take on it: I have been to Morocco multiple times, and Marrakech is my favorite spot. However, it is super far away from the cruise port, so I suggest checking out Casablanca and Rabat instead.
It is my least favorite city in Morocco, so I definitely recommend to also go to Rabat. After you pick your preferred destination for the day trip, you need to plan on how to get there. The Casablanca Cruise Port is not the most developed in the world. There are no shops, rental car stations, or amenities directly at the docks.
There are always many taxis waiting outside the terminal, so that is always an option. Taxis are cheap in Morocco, so you can just hire a taxi driver to bring you to your destinations all day. The city center is about 1,5 kilometers away from the cruise port, but it is not a nice and scenic walk.
