Just next to Essaouira’s old city is its iconic (both in its sea of blue boats and in its pungent, fishy smell) sea port. Early in the morning or in early evening, you can visit to watch the fishermen arrive back to the docks to unload their catches. In the morning it’s quiet and peaceful - you’ll likely be the only tourist there. In the evening, you can pick out some fresh seafood and have it grilled right in front of you for a tasty snack.
