In the harbour at Tangier, Morocco. The photographer is looking west from a boat in the harbour showing a commercial wharf on the right with various types of small crane on the quayside which is backed by a single storey shed. Small lighters with numbers on their bows are alongside the quay. In the centre are steps leading up to a landing stage with signs displayed on it, including two for the El Minza Palace Hotel. The Continental Hotel is beyond the landing stage.
