Overview
Essaouira is a delightfully charismatic coastal town popular with international travellers and city dwellers from Casablanca and Marrakech. Above the medieval battlements of its medina, the whitewashed, blue shuttered houses look out over an arc of perfect golden sand towards the Atlantic and the bustling harbour.
Inside the city walls, the coastal breeze threads its way through a maze of streets and alleyways where art galleries, antique shops, smart boutiques, excellent seafood restaurants and serious surf shacks for the keen windsurfing fraternity, sit alongside market stalls, barbers and traditional workshops. It’s relaxing and enchanting, and Essaouira offers as easygoing holiday experience.
