A stop between Tangier and Chefchaouen, a day in Martil or a walk through the white medina: here is where to leave your bags in Tetouan and travel light.
Key Takeaways
Tetouan is a stopover city: between Tangier, Chefchaouen and the beaches, there is always one bag too many.
The UNESCO-listed medina is a pedestrian maze — see it without a suitcase.
Martil, Cabo Negro and M'diq are a few kilometres away: drop off in the morning, beach all day.
From 9 MAD per hour per bag, 59 MAD per day, paid online in dirhams.
Tetouan is a stopover city. People come for the day from Tangier, break the journey before Chefchaouen, head down to Martil for the beach, or travel on towards the border. In every case there is one bag too many. And the Tetouan medina, a UNESCO World Heritage site, is a maze of white alleys where a rolling suitcase makes no sense at all. The answer: luggage storage.
Why use luggage storage in Tetouan?
A stop between Tangier and Chefchaouen — a few hours in town, no desire to drag everything around.
A day at the beach — Martil, Cabo Negro and M'diq are a few kilometres away, and nobody watches a suitcase on the sand.
The medina is pedestrian and steep — narrow alleys, steps, covered passages: far better hands-free.
Early arrival or late departure — the classic, here as everywhere.

Tetouan hands-free, from Place Hassan II to Martil
Drop your bags, then walk to Place Hassan II and enter the medina through one of its gates. Inside you will see Tetouan's Andalusian heritage — the city was rebuilt by refugees from Granada — in the white facades, the studded doors and the still very local souks. Come out on the ensanche side, the old Spanish quarter, then take an hour in Martil if the weather is right. Collect your bags before moving on to Chefchaouen or Tangier.
