Historical Wall, Fishing Port & Argan Oil from Marrakech

Change scenery and breathe in the Atlantic sea air with a day trip to Essaouira, the charming "Pearl of the Atlantic".

Less hustle and bustle, more history: its UNESCO World Heritage medina is a maze of blue and white streets, magnificently protected by its famous Portuguese ramparts (Skala).

Along the way, we'll stop at an argan oil cooperative to learn about the unique manufacturing process of this precious oil.

Once there, let yourself be charmed by the ballet of seagulls at the bustling fishing port, stroll through the cedar wood craft markets and enjoy the Atlantic breeze on the immense beach.

Essaouira is the ideal coastal break for combining culture, history and relaxation.
