Overview

Essaouira is one of the coastal cities where the sweetness of life and nautical activities complement each other. We walk there quietly, in the shade of its ramparts, the very ones which draw the contours of Astapor, the red city of the series "Game of Thrones". We climb on these walls, we take the covered way: from there, we can distinguish its islands, the falcons, the seagulls and the gulls which hover above this nature reserve. In the distance, surfers, windsurfers and kitesurfers never tire of the quality of the wind.

  4. Essaouira
    3h
    Browse the alleys of the medina of Essaouira
    The beauty of Essaouira is far from immaculate. Between its white walls and its blue windows lie a heap of dirty rags, a mismatched bicycle wheel, some flying trash. Not to mention the crumbling facades, nor the badly closed manholes. Believe it or not, it is also these imperfections that make all the charm of the medina.
  5. Essaouira Ramparts
    2h · Admission ticket included
    Fortress built in the 18th century, architectural and historical testimony of Spanish and Portuguese domination, the Skala (or Scala) is one of the unmissable tourist sites. From its ramparts of more than 200 meters long and its round bastion at the northern corner of the fortification, where the arsenal of cannons still targets some invaders from another era, we dominate the ocean and the waves that come crash on the rocks.
  6. Essaouira
    2h
    Lunch by the sea in a restaurant Ideally located by the sea it offers from its terraces a breathtaking view of the Atlantic Ocean and the island of Mogador, it overlooks the beach where seagulls and gulls come to rest at tide low.
  7. Essaouira Beach
    1h · Admission ticket included
    Stroll on Essaouira beach: Essaouira beach is very pleasant because it is an entirely popular and public beach.

    The beach is at the exit from the historic center of the city and is several kilometers long. The tides are high and reach as far as the pier, in the part closest to the medina.
