Overview

    Three wildly disparate attractions – a museum of Islamic art, a heritage village and a reptile park – are on offer at this strange tourist attraction next to the Taguermes Lighthouse. The most popular element is 'Crocodile Island', an enclosure where semi-somnolent crocs recline on rocks in a large pool and are fed by keepers in a theatrical thrice-weekly spectacle. Even more impressive is the Lalla Hadria Museum, which showcases a world-class collection of calligraphy, costumes, ceramics, bronze work and carpets from Islamic countries.

    Though well-intentioned, the small heritage zone is underwhelming. It includes a h-ch (house for an extended family built in the shape of a fort) with a makhzen dhi-f (greeting lodge), han-t al fakh'khar (pottery workshop), matbakh (external kitchen), h'ovanet en'c-ja (weaving hut) and mâassra (oil mill and press).

    The large, modern whitewashed complex includes souvenir shops and a few restaurants and cafes.
