Knowing more about the history of a city, or a country, helps you to know yourself better, and a visit to the Medina will reveal some of the secrets of ancient Mogador, so dear to the main artistic and religious cultures. Its Unesco World Heritage status is no accident... Our Riad is located close to the ramparts, at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac in the heart of the Medina. A 5-minute walk from Essaouira's main beach and 3 minutes from the fishing port.
