DAY 1 🐚

Marrakech → Essaouira – Argan Trees, Blue Medina & Seafood Lunch (190 Km)

After an early pick up from your hotel or Riad in Marrakech, you will start your coastal adventure by leaving the busy souks of Marrakech behind and heading west toward the Atlantic. Stop at a women-run Argan oil cooperative where you’ll see how this famous Moroccan product is made.

Wander the UNESCO-listed Medina of Essaouira with its blue-and-white architecture and artisan shops. Walk along the Skala de la Ville where old cannons still face the Atlantic.

🐟 You will have lunch at the Essaouira fish market where you can select your seafood straight from the catch and have it grilled on the spot — a true Moroccan food experience. In the afternoon, enjoy a camel ride on Essaouira beach or relax with mint tea at a rooftop terrace.

Spend your first night in a traditional riad in Essaouira just steps from the beach and medina.
