Known as the ‘Jewel of the Atlantic', Essaouira is an atmospheric fishing port with age-old souks, pastel blue seaside houses and a bustling UNESCO-listed Medina. You'll have plenty of time to discover this coastal gem with a guided tour and a visit to Espace Othello Gallery.

Leaving Agadir in the early morning, you'll travel to Essaouria via Tamri – a surfer's paradise – for a panoramic view of the beach and then to an argan cooperative to find out about the production process. In the city, your guide will take you around the fortified Medina, port, market, jewelers' district and the artisan complex.

In the afternoon, you'll have free time for lunch and to explore the city at your own pace. Haggle for souvenirs and walk along the golden sandy beach before rounding off the day browsing the artworks at the Espace Othello Gallery.
