FROM
THE ATLANTIC OCEAN
TO THE SAHARA DESERT
With Meli and Haji
Submitted By Pat and JuliaDay 11
Asseouira
 We meet at 0900 and start a brief orientation tour of the
harbor and medina in Essaouira. The medina walls are a very short walk
from
our hotel, and the harbor is close as well. We start at the harbor. Many of
the blue fishing boats have already left, but quite a few are back with
today’s catch. The boat
yard and dry dock are active with shipbuilding and repair as well as
fishermen selling the freshly caught seafood.
From there, we walk through the medina to what is left of
the old ramparts, overlooking the Atlantic.
A few cannons are still there.
From the top, we
have a great view of the ocean and the edge of the medina. We now have the rest of the day to roam on our own, in the
medina or along the beach.
