- Essaouira - Explore the enchanting Atlantic port city of Essaouira, one of Morocco’s most captivating destinations. Located just 2.5 hours from Marrakech, it offers a completely different experience: refreshing Atlantic breezes, whitewashed buildings, and the soothing sounds of waves and Gnawa music echoing through blue-painted alleyways.
During the drive, you’ll pass through the Argan forest, the only place in the world where Argan trees grow naturally, and home to the renowned tree-climbing goats that perch in the branches.
In Essaouira, a guide will lead you along the stunning 18th-century sea ramparts, where Portuguese cannons still point towards the Atlantic. You’ll have the chance to explore the UNESCO-listed medina, which is much smaller and more laid-back than Marrakech. A lunch at the port fish grills is a must — select your fresh fish from the display and watch it being grilled over charcoal. In the afternoon, stroll along the wild Atlantic beach and soak in the unique atmosphere that once captivated Jimi Hendrix, Orson Welles, and Winston Churchill.
