Essaouira and Agadir: harbours, souks and regional cooking from Tangier

From Tangier, the itinerary takes its first character from literary memory; the middle pause in Fes is shaped by craft quarters; arrival in Agadir follows train links and overland road links, and the day design allows meals anchored in their places.

Het verhaal

In Tangier, the opening is framed by hillside streets; Taghazout changes the pace through ocean conditions; Agadir finishes with broad beach.

Day 1 gives Tangier, before Essaouira, room for Morocco read across the water; day 5 before Tangier keeps Essaouira focused on thuya craft; before Tangier, day 6 belongs to Taghazout and ocean conditions. By day 7 toward Tangier, Marrakech brings in medina craft; before Tangier, day 8 separates broad beach in Agadir.

With rail travel and road-network stages between Tangier and Agadir, the itinerary reads Tanger-Tétouan-Al Hoceïma, Rabat-Salé-Kénitra, Casablanca-Settat, Fès-Meknès, Marrakech-Safi, and Souss-Massa through ocean conditions in Taghazout; the remaining space allows city and landscape around each table.

Keep live departure times between Tangier and Taghazout and seat supply and current carriageway conditions between Agadir and Taghazout and road-network timing current between Tangier and Rabat; do not give Agadir an old drive estimate.
