Who makes the Agafay to Essaouira Airport trip

This is usually a departure-day run, and Essaouira Airport is where the flight home leaves from. People leave Agafay the morning after a camp night, usually back to Marrakech or on to the coast. ESU is small enough that 90 minutes before an international departure is usually comfortable, but check-in desks open late, so there is little point arriving earlier. With 2h10 on the road, we work the pickup time back from your flight so you are not sitting in the terminal for hours — tell us the flight number and we set the time.

The road from Agafay to Essaouira Airport

The Agafay stone desert begins about 35 km south-west of Marrakech, reached via the Amizmiz road. West of Marrakech the N8 crosses the dry Haouz plain to Chichaoua, then the R207 heads through the Chiadma farmland and the argan forest down to the ocean at Essaouira. The final stretch: mogador Airport is 17 km south-east of the town, just off the road towards Agadir. Good places to break the drive: the argan cooperatives at Ounagha and a café stop at Chichaoua.

Arriving in Essaouira Airport

Essaouira Mogador (ESU) is a small single-terminal airport with a handful of seasonal European routes, which makes it quick to get through but thin on ground transport. ESU is small enough that 90 minutes before an international departure is usually comfortable, but check-in desks open late, so there is little point arriving earlier.

Before you go

Flights are seasonal; winter schedules are thin, so double-check your flight day before booking the car. From Essaouira Airport, from Mogador it is as quick to reach Sidi Kaouki as the Essaouira medina. The return leg, Essaouira Airport to Agafay, has its own page and the same per-vehicle pricing.
