Description

Looking to discover more of Essaouira’s diverse landscapes in just two hours? This camel ride offers an unforgettable journey through the beach, wind-sculpted dunes, a peaceful eucalyptus forest, and the iconic Borj El Baroud, a Portuguese watchtower overlooking the sea.

Your ride begins along Essaouira’s beautiful Atlantic coastline, where your camel strolls beside the crashing waves and salty breeze. After soaking in the sea views, you’ll head inland toward the golden dunes, where the silence and shifting sands create a magical atmosphere.
