1/31.- Welcome to Essaouira, Morocco!!!

Hello and welcome to virtourist.com pages on Essaouira. This small town South of Casablanca has been a beach destination among Moroccans for several decades. It was also a popular destination Among hippies during the 1970's. One of the most popular visitors from this time was Jimi Hendrix, whose pictures can be seen in many local bars and hotels.

Currently the city is still a vacation destination Among locals from Casablanca and Marrakech. Lately it has regained some international fame thanks to its strong winds, that draw wind surfers and surfers from all the continents.

I recommend visiting Essaouira while in Morocco. You will appreciate its relaxed ambient even more if you come from one of the bustling Imperial cities. If you accompany me, I will try to show you around.
