On our way to the coastal town of Essaouira we passed many argan trees which are indigenous to Morocco and southwestern Algeria. Argan oil is produced from the kernels of the argan tree which is used for culinary or cosmetic purposes.
Essaouira came to prominence during the 15th century when the Portuguese established the medieval citadel that still stands there today. We started our visit here by the harbour then walked through the town before returning to the seafront.
Cats are everywhere in the towns and cities of Morocco
however dogs are only seen out in the country.
On our way back to Marrakech we stopped for a refreshing
mint tea.
