Casablanca - Post Report Question and Answers

Casa is fairly limited on the social scene. Fortunately, we have a pretty good group of people at post so there are frequent get-togethers. The CG's residence also has a pool, bbq, and tennis court available for the Consulate community. It's also one of the few spots with green space that's safe for children. - Jul 2014

Plenty of good restaurants, bars, clubs if that is your thing. Beaches, tours to different cities. If you have a house with a yard or at least a deck you can BBQ. - Jun 2012
