Essaouira Anyone been ripped off by the boys at the beach?
Posted: Sun September 6, 2009 07:25 AM UTC
Hi, I was wondering if anyone has experienced the same situation as myself. I have visited Essaouira and was conned into lending 3600 MAD to help a local guy with an apparent kite surfing instructors course (he didnt do it) only to be told he would not be paying back the money and instead his mother needs it to build a house!?!? I spoke to her and she apologised profusely begging me not to go to the police and in turn promised the money would be returned at the end of last month however she is no longer prepared to return it either. I know there is a process of retrieval through the police/embassey. Can others please advise of any similar experiences.

Province d' Essaouira Essaouria - Weather in October ?
Posted: Sat June 20, 2009 09:47 PM UTC
Hi we are a family of 4 (children are 12 & 17) and thinking of visiting in October.
We were wondering:
1) How is the weather - is it windy/cold in Essouria
2) We fly into Marrakesh we were thinking of staying there 2/3 days and then going to Essouria for 4-5 days - given we don't want to travel too much - is there anywhere else we should include in our schedule ?

Essaouira Money money money (and kids)
Posted: Tue March 31, 2009 08:05 AM UTC
Hi
I am travelling to Essaouira on Friday and I just wondered if there was an ATM machine there or if I need to sort myself out with travellers' cheques/US dollars. Can someone advise?

Also, any tips on travelling to Essaouira with a 2 year old? I am particularly interested in trips to nearby places (we will probably hire a car as we are surfers) that a 2 year old might like?

Essaouira weather
Posted: Sun March 1, 2009 03:16 PM UTC
Hi, I am travelling to Essaouira next week and I am trying to find out what the weather is like. Every site I look up has a wide range of temperature forecast which doesn't really tell me anything. Please can you tell me if it rainy at the moment and is it warm. Do I need a jacket in the evening?

Thanks

Essaouira Essaouira - marakech
Posted: Mon June 23, 2008 10:33 PM UTC
I would like to know if it is possible to get a bus
Essaouira - marakech on the 3-09-08 at 12h00 Supratours.
Is it still summer that date or not.
Or do we have to take the 16h00 Supratours.
I thought maybe it is a problem because it's ramadan?
My touropperator can arrange a transfer to marrakech but it's to high priced.

thanks in advance saskia

Province d' Essaouira is sunbathing in a bikini a bad idea?
Posted: Tue August 21, 2007 01:05 PM UTC
Hi,

I was just wondering about sunbathing in Essaouira - is it inappropriate to wear a bikini on the beach? Or on the hotel terrace (if they have any kind of sunbathing area)? I've also heard it's rather windy on the beach - is there anywhere else to sunbathe, e.g. a swimming pool or something in the area that we could go to? Sunbathing isn't the be all and end all for me, I just wondered whether to bring a bikini with me or not!

Thanks!

Essaouira Riad in Essaouira
Posted: Wed February 14, 2007 09:31 AM UTC
I am travelling to Marrakech on 14 - 21 March (with my husband) and I thought I would travel to Essaouira on the 16 or 17th March. How easy is it to book accommodation for a few nights, preferably in a Riad. Can I do it when I arrive or can you recommend a site where I can book in advance? I would also be interested in Riads in Marrakech if you have any ideas. I live in the country at home and like fairly peaceful surroundings normally.
