Additional Information

Often referred to as “Mogador”, or the beautifully designed, Essaouira boasts of its enchanting charm and timeless aroma of thuja, lemon tree, and cedar marquetry. The city takes pride in its homegrown artisans who specialize in glossed and colored woodwork, marble statues, ceramic inlays, and paintings.

Known for its continual protection from pirates, Essaouira has remained unfailingly secure behind its towering walls and defensive mastery, the “skala de la Kasbah”. The décor of canons along the walls provides an unparalleled architectural masterpiece that endures the hitting of the ocean waves day in, day out.

Souvenirs are strewn all around in this city that has masterfully concealed its secrets and riches.
