NIKKI BEACH
Head out to Nikki Beach in the palm groves, just like the Sex and the City girls. Here you can catch a tan on comfortable loungers around the huge pool, sample international cuisine and drink cocktails. Sex on the Beach, anyone?

DJEMAA EL-FNA
Find a ringside seat at sunset in a café overlooking this buzziest of squares (pictured) and watch the antics begin. Acrobats, snake-charmers, storytellers, medicine men and belly dancers cavort, while sheep's heads, kebabs and tagines compete to tickle your taste buds.
