Overview
This half-day excursion takes us to Sidi Mbark, a small Berber village 35 km south of Essaouira. We walk to a little cascade and close by visit the old Marabout (residence for the spirit of a Saint or wise man). Here, the convergence of a large sand dune, a small river, and an imposing rock splendidly frames a lovely bay.
The stream brings some water (water level depends on season/rainfall) into this very dry region to irrigate local crops. The landscape offers a rich interplay of green, blue and yellow. As it rests on the rocks, the Marabout that gave its name to the village speaks of former times.
Walking time is approx. 40 minutes to reach the cascade and 30 minutes back (round trip, plus time for several stops).
If you have kids and you’re not sure if they will make the entire walk, get the donkey to take the strain!
On the way back to Essaouira we will have tea or coffee at Sidi Kaouki, a relaxed surfers’ village, where we will enjoy a beautiful view over the large sandy beach.
As we will be driving through the Argan zone, you have the option to visit an Argan oil cooperative and learn about the production of this beautiful oil - in all the world, a product unique to this area. They will offer us a taste of the lovely things they make with it, too.
Very likely you will see the famous goats in the trees on this tour to the south of Essaouira.

The flow brings some water (water level depends on season/rainfall) into this very dry region to irrigate local crops. The landscape offers a rich interplay of green, blue and yellow. As it rests on the rocks, the Marabout that gave its name to the village speaks of former times.
Due to the drought Morocco is facing, the cascades may be dry. But the beautiful landscape is still worth the visit.
Walking time is approx. 2,5 hours / 6 km. We cross a stunning dunes zone, walk along a lonely beach and finally reach the cascade and the marabout above. Then we walk uphill to the village where will assist a traditional tea ceremony at a local home.
If you have kids and you’re not sure if they will make the entire walk, get the donkey to take the strain (supplement).
