The second stop it will be at traditional Argan woman Cooperative to see how women make Argan Oil, Nut Butter and cometics from the Argan nut. Option to continue directly to Esaouira. The medina of Essaouira (formerly “Mogador”) is a UNESCO World Heritage listed city, as an example of a late-18th century fortified town.
► Have lunch at the fish-grill cafes, with wooden tables and benches laid out overlooking the sea that was once- in the 19th century-the only Moroccan port south of Tangier ► After lunch visit Orson Welles’ Square and memorial, designed by Samir Mustapha,one of the towns artists, which pays homage to Orson Welles filming of Othello inEssouaria. Essaouira’s history is a reminder of the times when Spain, Portugal and England fought to maintain control over its coasts. It has a typical Portuguese harbor that is a stunning example of Moorish and Portuguese architecture
