Taghazout to Essaouira, the comfortable way.
The Taghazout–Essaouira transfer covers 135 km in about 1h45. It links the Souss surf coast with the Atlantic coast by way of Imsouane, and it is priced per vehicle from €82, so a family or group pays the same as one traveller.
Who makes the Taghazout to Essaouira trip
Why this trip? Departures from Taghazout are typically the end of a surf week, or a move to quieter breaks once the village fills up. As for Essaouira, people come for the relaxed medina, the harbour grill stalls, the long windy beach and a few slow days after the intensity of Marrakech.
The road from Taghazout to Essaouira
Beyond Taghazout the N1 climbs above the cliffs past the Cap Ghir lighthouse and the banana plantations of Tamri, with the Atlantic below on the left. North of Imsouane the road turns inland through rolling argan hills around Tamanar and Smimou, where women's cooperatives sell argan oil at the roadside, then rejoins the coast at Essaouira. Good places to break the drive: the Cap Ghir lighthouse viewpoint, Tamri's banana plantations and an argan oil cooperative near Tamanar.
Arriving in Essaouira
Essaouira is a whitewashed, walled fishing port on the Atlantic — Portuguese-era ramparts, a working harbour full of blue boats and a steady trade wind that made it Morocco's windsurf capital. The medina is car-free. Drop-offs happen at Bab Sbaa, Bab Marrakech or the harbour car park, where licensed porters with barrows take bags the last few hundred metres.
Before you go
A final practical note on Essaouira: mild all year — rarely above 27 °C even in August — but the wind is strongest from May to September. And when you are ready to move on, Sidi Kaouki's surf beach is 25 minutes south and the argan villages inland make an easy half day. The return leg, Essaouira to Taghazout, has its own page and the same per-vehicle pricing.
Voiture privée, car, grand taxi ou train ?
The fastest way from Taghazout to Essaouira is a private transfer: about 1 h 45 door to door for a fixed €82 for the whole vehicle. The coach is cheaper per person but adds a transfer at each end and roughly an hour of waiting; a shared grand taxi only leaves once six seats are sold.

| Self-drive hire car | ~€45 per day + fuel | 1 h 45 | Yes | Flexible, but you handle the mountain passes, city parking and the deposit hold. |
Coach, grand taxi and rail figures are typical published fares and timings for Moroccan operators (CTM, Supratours, ONCF) and vary by season. Only the Bacharide fare is fixed and quoted at booking.
