The Marrakech / Essaouira / Essaouira Region region

Essaouira has a very good climate - never getting too hot (seldom over 35degrees). Can be windy, especially in the summer, so good for windsports of which it is famous. Spring time, September and October are beautiful months with the latter normally experiencing wonderful sunsets! Formerly a Portuguese colony, its medina is unusual in that it has wide streets and you have little hassle from vendors - unlike Marrakech! Friendly people and laid back atmosphere - a great place to relax and recharge.

The Essaouira / Ancient Medina area

There are many leather goods, traditional musical instruments, kaftans, babouche (shoes),wonderful spices etc to buy. And of course, Essaouira is famous for thuya wood (furniture and ornaments etc) and argan oil (which has more good properties than the best olive oil, which is also good here)- you can see the goats climb up the argan trees in the countryside - a sight to behold indeed. Good restaurants - Moroccan, French, Italian , traditional country food cafes - and good wines. Of course, being right on the Atlantic, the sea food is fabulous and very fresh. The Gnaoua festival is world renowned and is normally begins on the last Thursday in June and lasts 4 days, terminating with the star attraction on Sunday afternoon. This year was the 10th anniversary. August has the Andulusian Festival with great fireworks, April has Les Printemps (spring) festival and there are many more in between. The "Jimi Hendrix" village of Diabat is close by and can be seen from and easily visited from the beach.
