Destination
Essaouira
The windy city of the Atlantic, where white-washed houses, blue doors, and a thriving art scene create a relaxed, bohemian vibe.
Essaouira, formerly known as Mogador, is a refreshing escape from the heat of the interior. This fortified seaport is famous for its constant trade winds (the 'Alizee'), making it a paradise for windsurfers and a haven for those seeking a slower pace.
The medina is a UNESCO World Heritage site, known for its wide avenues and vibrant art galleries. It is the home of the world-famous Gnaoua World Music Festival and offers some of the freshest seafood in the country right by the port.
