Historic fishing village Mogador, Bride of the Atlantic

Essaouira, the ancient Mogador, is known as the "Bride of the Atlantic" because of its crenellated walls, distinctive breeze, and houses with white and blue façade.

One of those coastal cities where the distinctive ambiance and water activities mix together naturally. See the features of Astapor, the red city from the "Game of Thrones" series, as you stroll quietly in the shade of its ramparts. Climb these walls and take the parapet walk to get a better view of this nature reserve's gulls, seagulls, falcons, and gulls flying above the Purpuraires Islands. Surfers, windsurfers, and kitesurfers are controlling the waves on the opposite side, taking advantage of the breeze.


Working fishing port and wet market


You can get to the fishing port where the sailors are working by taking a stroll. Visit the fish market to sample the seafood that was caught that night. The medina, located in the heart of the city, welcomes you to explore its twisting lanes. The city, which Unesco named one of Morocco's most beautiful, beats to the rhythm of music every summer during the Gnaoua festival, which honors Afro-Maghrebin rhythms and makes visitors' stays memorable.





Morocco has been embracing responsible tourism for a while; the eco-resort Mogador, a must-see location for quiet times, and the nearby beaches designated with the Blue Flag are live examples of this goal.


Spend some time in this alluring location, which fulfills all of your fantasies, and discover perfect awareness and tranquility.
