The excursion

130 km to the north, Safi is Morocco's pottery capital: the potters' hill with its wood-fired kilns, the medina and its Portuguese cathedral, the Dar el Bahar fortress facing the Atlantic and the sardine harbour.

An off-the-beaten-track day, at your own pace. You set the departure time; the driver waits at every stop and brings you back. Possible return along the coast via the beaches of Souiria Kedima.

Example of a day

  1. Pick-up at the time you choose
  2. Coastal drive to Safi (about 2 hours)
  3. Potters' hill, medina, fortress, lunch at the harbour: the driver waits for you
  4. Return along the coast with an optional beach stop
  5. Return to Essaouira
