After the bedlam that can be Marrakech arriving in historic Essaouira is like an oasis of calm and tranquillity. Within minutes of arriving in the UNESCO World Heritage site it is obvious that there is something special and charming about the town. The blue and white buildings, the sun faded facades, the compact and traffic free Medina, the Souks, the beautiful sheltered beach on the south side of the old fishing port and the vast Atlantic ocean on the other. Add the 350 days or so of sunshine each year, Essaouira has its own micro climate, so it is never too hot in summer (approx 30c) and mild in the winter (16c) the town has charm and an instant and seductive appeal. Quad biking, horse and camel riding, kite and wind surfing, bike and car hire are all available in the town. Stunning woodlands and other seaside villages with secluded surf beaches and the vinyards of Ounagha are all a short car ride away. Marrakech and Agadir are approximately two and a quarter hours drive.
