Essaouira was a lovely place at the sea. Busy but calm ( unlike Marrakesh). It was a lovely sunny day too We ate in a very rough and ready ‘restaurant’ opposite the fish sellers. Chose your fish then take it across to the ‘restaurant ‘ to cook it for you. A great experience. The journey there however was long so make sure you are ready for a long road trip. At least three hours each way. The stop at the women’s cooperative was definitely with it and to support the cooperative. Driver ( Mo) was good. Gave enough information, arrived to pick up exactly on time.
