Who makes the Safi to Essaouira Airport trip
This is usually a departure-day run, and Essaouira Airport is where the flight home leaves from. People often pass through Safi on a coastal road trip between Essaouira and El Jadida rather than staying long. 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 1h45 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 Safi to Essaouira Airport
South of Safi the road hugs the coast past Souiria Kdima's fishing beach, then crosses the Had Draa farmland towards 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: Souiria Kdima beach.
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 Safi, has its own page and the same per-vehicle pricing.
Private car, coach, grand taxi or train?
The fastest way from Safi to Essaouira Airport is a private transfer: about 1 h 45 door to door for a fixed €85 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.
| Option | Typical price | Journey time | Door to door | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Private transfer (Bacharide) | from €85 per vehicle | 1 h 45 | Yes | Fixed fare for the whole car, hotel-door pickup, luggage and child seats included, flight tracked. |
| CTM / Supratours coach | ~€10 per person | 2 h 45 | No | Cheapest option, but fixed departure times, station-to-station, and luggage is charged by the bag. |
| Shared grand taxi | ~€10 per seat | 2 h | No | Leaves only when six seats are sold. No seatbelts in the rear, no boot space for large cases. |
| 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.
