Essaouira Day Trip from Marrakech – Group Tour

Leave Marrakech behind and enjoy a refreshing day on the Atlantic coast with this group day trip to Essaouira, one of Morocco’s most beautiful seaside towns.

Your journey begins with a pick-up between 8:00 and 8:30 AM from your accommodation. Enjoy a scenic drive through the Moroccan countryside, passing through argan tree forests — and don’t miss the chance to see the famous goats climbing the trees!

On arrival in Essaouira (formerly Mogador), explore the charming old port city at your own pace or with a local guide (optional). Discover the historic Skala fortress, wander through the UNESCO-listed medina, and stroll along the beach lined with blue boats and seagulls.

You’ll have plenty of free time to enjoy fresh seafood lunch at a local restaurant by the port, shop for handmade souvenirs, or simply relax by the sea. In the late afternoon, your driver will take you back to Marrakech, arriving around 7:00 PM — relaxed and full of ocean breeze memories.
