Here it is easy to have contact with the population. One takes one\u2019s time to stroll through the narrow streets of the authentic medina or on the terrace of a caf\u00e9 to sip a mint tea and take the pulse of the city.
City of tolerance and artists, Essaouira invites you to a respectful tourism, to meet the local population, without stress, an invigorating, restful stay, a salutary disconnection, a relaxing break, an incredible softness, unique lights, a soft and hushed atmosphere, between tradition and modernity.<\/p>\n

Essaouira has been a jewel of contemporary art since the 1950s, thanks to its rich heritage and tradition. Cultural crossroads, city of arts, here the mixing of cultures makes it a privileged place for artists from all horizons.<\/p>\n

In turn Carthaginian, Roman, then called Mogador by Portuguese sailors, the city reached its peak in the 18th century thanks to the Sultan Sidi Mohammed Ben Abdellah who decided to make it the only Moroccan port open to foreign trade. The city prospered until the first half of the 20th century, thanks in particular to the large Jewish community. At that time, many foreign powers installed Consular Houses in the Kasbah. However, the industrial revolution and the increasing tonnage of merchant ships came up against the small size of the port and its shallow waters. Since then, Essaouira has successfully turned to fishing.<\/p>\n
