Why Morocco
Why Romanian travellers love Morocco.
Romanian travellers come to Essaouira for the calm and the contrast: a UNESCO-listed Atlantic medina, breezy beaches and world-class summer windsurf and kitesurf, art galleries, Gnaoua music and fresh-off-the-boat seafood — all a 2.5-hour drive from Marrakech, where a private trip turns a long-held dream into an easy, well-run reality.
Getting there
Flights from Romania
Bucharest connects to Marrakech (RAK) via a European hub in around 7 hours, with seasonal direct charters; the coast is then a 2.5-hour drive.
Best arrival airports: Marrakech-Menara (RAK), then ~2.5h drive. We meet every guest in arrivals and drive you door to door — see airport transfers.
Do you need a visa?
As an EU/Schengen passport holder you enter Morocco visa-free for up to 90 days. No advance visa is needed for tourism — a passport valid for the duration of your stay is enough, though six months' validity is the safe standard. The local currency is the Moroccan dirham (MAD).
Time difference
Essaouira is about 1 hour behind Romania (Morocco stays on UTC+1 year-round).
When to go
The best time to visit.
Essaouira is a year-round coast, but the character changes with the season. April–June and September–October bring warm, settled days ideal for the medina, the beach and day trips. Summer (June–August) is when the Alizé trade winds blow hardest — peak season for windsurfers and kitesurfers, and reliably cooler than inland Marrakech. Winters are mild and quiet, with bright days perfect for walking the ramparts and the souks.
