A plethora of market stalls fill the narrow streets of Essouira….mountains of melons, oranges and grapefruit, to limes, chillies and cactus fruit….
and enormous barrows of mint…. (a handful is very useful and kindly given when you visit the leather tanneries to help with the stench!), and of course required for endless rounds of mint tea.
But a handful of mint wasn’t necessary in the fish market, where the day’s catch smelled as fresh as a daisy!
