Essaouira, Morocco: Sunset Horseback Ride on the Beach

What You Will Experience

Saddle up for a magical 1-hour horseback ride as the sun sets over Essaouira’s Atlantic coast. Your ride takes you across rolling dunes, shaded eucalyptus groves, and the pristine south beach an area with exclusive access, away from the crowds.

Along the way, enjoy breathtaking views of the ruined Portuguese castle, lapped by the tide, and the mysterious Mogador Island with its ancient prison and mosque minaret rising in the distance. As the sun lowers, the sky shifts into a canvas of colors, clear golden tones in summer or dramatic fiery hues in autumn, reflected on the ocean’s waves.
