Guide to Essaouira

map
On Morocco's Atlantic coastline to the west of the country lies the city of Essaouira, sheltered from marine winds by the island of Mogador. The city has a population of 70,000 inhabitants, and in its walled areas vehicles are banned, so there's a curiously historic feel to the horse-drawn carts which clatter its streets. It's beach is perfect for windsurfing and a visit to the nearby town of Ziabat makes for a lovely walk along the coastline.
