Highlights
  • Marrakech - Pickup: Be picked up from the lobby of your hotel or riad. If the riad is inaccessible by minivan, a nearby meeting point will be designated.
  • Arganomade - Argane Oil Cooperative - Visit of the women’s argan oil cooperative
  • Essaouira Fishing Port - Visit of the fishing port of Essaouira
  • Essaouira - Browse the alleys of the medina of Essaouira
    The beauty of Essaouira is far from immaculate. Between its white walls and its blue windows lie a heap of dirty rags, a mismatched bicycle wheel, some flying trash. Not to mention the crumbling facades, nor the badly closed manholes. Believe it or not, it is also these imperfections that make all the charm of the medina.
  • Essaouira Ramparts - Fortress built in the 18th century, architectural and historical testimony of Spanish and Portuguese domination, the Skala (or Scala) is one of the unmissable tourist sites. From its ramparts of more than 200 meters long and its round bastion at the northern corner of the fortification, where the arsenal of cannons still targets some invaders from another era, we dominate the ocean and the waves that come crash on the rocks.
  • Essaouira - Lunch by the sea in a restaurant Ideally located by the sea it offers from its terraces a breathtaking view of the Atlantic Ocean and the island of Mogador, it overlooks the beach where seagulls and gulls come to rest at tide low.
  • Essaouira Beach - Stroll on Essaouira beach: Essaouira beach is very pleasant because it is an entirely popular and public beach.

The beach is at the exit from the historic center of the city and is several kilometers long. The tides are high and reach as far as the pier, in the part closest to the medina.

Additional Information

Essaouira is a seaside town where tranquil living and water sports go hand in hand. One can stroll peacefully along its ramparts, which are known for outlining Astapor, the ‘Red City’ in the ‘Game of Thrones’ series. You can walk along these walls and take the covered path; from this vantage point, you can spot its islands, as well as falcons, seagulls, and gulls circling over this wildlife sanctuary. Far off, you can see surfers, windsurfers, and kitesurfers, who never get enough of the high-quality wind.
