Today we will travel towards the Atlantic Ocean to Essaouira.
The name Essaouira comes from ‘’ AL SOUIRAH ‘’ meaning the little fortress surrounded by walls. The town is bathed by the Atlantic Ocean. Because it lies right on the sea, Essaouira was obliged to defend itself from pirate assaults from all shores, and sheltered behind walls reputed impossible to storm.
Along the way, we will pick up some supplies and stop to visit the Social Center in Al-Hanshan. This is an institution that cares for elderly people without a home or a family, and it also cares for people with a mental disability who are homeless and have no breadwinners. We will have lunch in this association and give them some supplies to support their good work.
