ESSAOUIRA Morocco With a romantic name like the ‘Wind City of Africa’, it’s hard to resist the draw of the beautiful coastal city of Essaouira. Looking out over the Atlantic Ocean, this historic 18th century sea-front city has a long standing colonial history which will charm you as much as the winding streets of the protected Medina (old town), its spice markets and souks, ocean views and palm lined avenues.

Spend some time by the atmospheric port where you can look on as traditional fishing boats are constructed from skeleton up, feel first-hand the strength of the coastal wind, known as the ‘alizee’, or dip into history with an exploration of the old brass cannons which line the city fort walls.

Part of UNESCO’s World Heritage list, the ancient, yet well preserved Medina of Essaouira is worthy of detailed exploration, which doesn’t necessarily have to be anything more than strolling down its narrow streets past vendors, whitewashed houses with ornately built wooden doors, souks, wide plazas with towering palm trees or perfect examples of European military architecture from the colonisation of North Africa.

Another noteworthy attraction which must make its way on your to-do list here, is the all-female Coopérative Tamounte where you can learn about, purchase and test as many argan-oil, medicinal and traditional cosmetic products as you would like. Tucked away in a small passageway, this cooperative is the perfect place for sustainable souvenir shopping, before proceeding to find the perfect spot to try some local Moroccan cuisine.

Hotel Sofitel Essaouira Mogador Golf & Spa Discover the true style and feel of Morocco at the luxury Sofitel Essaouira Golf & Spa. Surrounded by the Mogador Golf Club, and overlooking the historic port city, this resort is the perfect spot to retreat to after a day of exploring Essaouira. Designed by La Coste to reflect the theme and style of Moroccan nomadic life, the décor of the resort’s rooms and villas incorporate Moorish motifs, rich and intense colours, exotic wood elements and balconies, which overlook the stunning landscape.

With four restaurants serving delectable and indulgent Moroccan and international cuisine, two bars serving mouth-watering, cocktails a nightclub where you can forget your troubles whilst listening to the resident DJ and live band, it’s no wonder why the hotel has been awarded a TripAdvisor Certificate of Excellence.

When a day of hard bargaining at the souks comes to an end, retire to the So Spa which has private cubicles, a traditional hammam and a relaxation area with a heated pool

where you can soak away your aches and sores in the lap of luxury, whilst sipping on a traditional Moroccan mint tea.

The hotel also offers an extensive list of services, some which come at an extra cost, including the Kids Villa or QG Lounge for teens, free parking, Wi-Fi, a gift shop and a reception which is able to organise excursions.
