The Marrakech / Essaouira / Essaouira Region
Essaouira is a picturesque Moroccan fishing village. It is steeped in history and culture. Situated as it is on a stunning 7km long beach it is a destination for surfers and watersports enthusiasts. It offers great shopping, restaurants and opportunities for just soaking up the atmosphere. The climate is great all year round.
The summer months are relieved by a good Atlantic breeze, whilst the summer sun is very reliable but you will need a sweater for evenings. There are facilities for horse riding, camel safaris and quad biking adventures.
Essaouira / Ancient Medina area
There is plenty to do in the local area. Within the Medina are workshops and artisans all worth visiting. Like the rest of Morocco there is great shopping in the local souk. There are great cafes and restaurants to enjoy.
The local fleet of fishing boats returns every evening and it is great to go down and meet the boats and enjoy freshly barbecued fish on the dock.
Outside the Medina is the enormous beach and all the activities can be enjoyed there. Kitesurfing, windsurfing, surfing etc. It is also possible to hire bikes to explore the area. Horse riding and camel trecks as well as quad biking are available. It is possible to visit local argan farms and local co-operatives.
How to get there
Easyjet and Atlas Blue offer the most convenient flights from the UK.
Fly either to Marrakech or Agadir. I recommend taking a taxi (2-2.5hrs) to Essaouira unless you are used to driving on Moroccan roads.
