Stroller or baby carrier in Casablanca?

Casablanca represents modern Morocco with better infrastructure than traditional cities like Marrakech. The Hassan II Mosque is spectacular and has some accessible areas, and the French colonial areas have wider streets. Moroccan culture is very welcoming to families. However, traditional souks and medina areas remain challenging.

💡 Tip: The Corniche (seaside promenade) from the Hassan II Mosque to Ain Diab is flat and popular with families — beaches, pools, and restaurants along the way. The Habous Quarter (New Medina) is much easier to navigate with a stroller than the old medina. Moroccan people are very warm to families with children.
