Frequently asked questions about renting in Essaouira

Can I rent at Essaouira airport and return elsewhere?

Yes. Essaouira Mogador airport is one of our service points, and one-way rentals to Agadir, Marrakech or Taghazout are possible. The classic combo: land in Essaouira, two days in the medina and the trade winds, then drive down the coast to Taghazout and Agadir on the R301, one of the country's most beautiful coastal roads. One-way fee depends on distance, confirmed at booking.

Which car for Essaouira and the windy coast?

The coastal road is surfaced and flowing: a Clio 5 or Sandero between 250 and 350 MAD per day does the job perfectly, including for the kitesurf spots at Moulay Bouzerktoun and Sidi Kaouki. Wind is the real subject in Essaouira: a stable vehicle like the Duster at 400 MAD brings genuine comfort on strong chergui days, especially loaded with gear.

How long is the coastal drive from Essaouira to Agadir?

About 3 hours on the R301 along the ocean, through Smimou, Tamanar and argan country; this is where you will see the famous goats perched in the trees. The road is good but winding in places, best enjoyed in daylight. The detour via Imsouane, its bay and its 600-metre wave adds 30 minutes and is worth every bend.
