Rincón, M'Diq or Mediek (in Arabian المضيق, meaning corner) is a Mediterranean town in Morocco. It's placed between Ceuta and Tétouan and it borders on Mellaliyine in the south and Alliyene in the west.

It has a surface of 480 hectares, of which 153 are urbanised. It had 60,000 inhabitants in 2003 and it hosts more than 100,000 tourists each year.

SNIM(M'Diq's Sailing Week/Semaine nautique internationale de M'Diq) is one of the most important tourist attractions. It's organised once a year by the M'Diq's Royal Yachting Club and sponsorised by several commercial firms. It's also significant by all the surrounding socio-cultural activities.

M'Diq's Harbour

The town's harbour is split in two parts: one for the tourism, and the other one for the fishing. Both have grown recently in order to improve the tourist offers and to increase the harbour's hosting competence
