Car Rental at Oujda Airport

Airport travel guide

Located in the relatively unexplored northeastern Morocco near the border with Algeria, Oujda’s main draw is its proximity to the Mediterranean coast. More adventurous travelers will also find plenty of history and tradition hiding beneath the surface. Here are two interesting road trips from Oujda:

• Sidi Maafa Park. Bordering the city’s southern borders, Sidi Maafa is a large public forest that’s popular for hikes or simply spending a long and pleasant day outdoors. The area is rocky and some of the climbs are quite steep, but this also means you’ll be rewarded with pleasant views from the tip. The drive from the center of Oujda takes about 20 minutes.
• Saidia. The coastal city of Saidia is only an hour’s drive north of Oujda, making it a very popular day trip for all sun and sea lovers. The public city beach stretches for 14 km (9 miles), making it one of the longest in the country, though with a rental car you can also find plenty of other, less busy spots as you travel further west along the coast. Saidia is bordered by Moulouya National Park, a protected marshland known for its great diversity of bird species. Every August, the city hosts a large folk museum festival.
