Enjoy the sardine grilled outdoors in the harbor's small restaurants, then discover the Scala du Port, a crenelated bastion built to protect the harbor and the city. It consists of two fortified wings behind the Navy gate. Leaving the port Scala, enter Moulay Hassan square. Discover the kasbah, a district surrounded by ramparts with foundations anchored in the rock. Walk along the ramparts taking the street that leads to the Scala of the Kasbah, where the famous guns of Essaouira line up. This place was chosen by Orson Welles to turn the exterior sets of his Othello.
At the heart of the Kasbah, the Museum of Popular Arts and Traditions is the mirror and the collective memory of the province of Essaouira. You will discover the ritual or profane musical instruments of the Assaoua, Hamadcha, and Gnaoua brotherhoods. Every year in June, the world-renowned Gnaoua Festival of Essaouira takes place.

Private tour from Marrakech to Essaouira was just amazing. Our driver Ibrahim was so friendly and happy to stop anywhere we wanted(didn't have to stop at a cooperative for example). When we got there we were met by our guide and had a magical tour of the city. We can only highly recommend the trip.

Une belle journée bien remplie avec un chauffeur (Abdelatef) qui a très bien conduit, tout en sécurité, avec calme et discrétion toute la journée pour nous accompagner.
Compter 3h30 de route entre Marrakech et Essaouira avec une pause à mi-chemin ... et 1h avant l'arrivée vous verrez des chèvres dans les arganiers !
Pensez à manger dans un restaurant le long de la plage pour leurs poissons frais, tout juste pêchés.
Essaouira est agréable par le climat.
