Morocco has become an increasingly popular holiday destination among British tourists, according to new research.

Figures from the country's tourism department showed that between January and July this year, 261,000 Britons visited Morocco for a holiday.

The study found that the destination was also highly popular among people from other European countries, with many more tourists coming from places including France, Belgium and the Netherlands.

Most of the tourists were said to have visited Marrakech, which saw an 11 per cent increase in the number of visitors since last year.

Casablanca, Tangier and Fez were also said to be major tourist hotspots, along with Rabat and Agadir.

Across the country as a whole, the tourism department recorded a ten per cent increase in tourist numbers from the same period in 2006.

According to a recent report in the Sofia Echo, Bulgaria is also growing in popularity as a holiday destination among people from different European countries.
