Imsouane : For fish and seafood lovers travelling to Morocco!!!

in hive-148497 •  4 years ago 

Travelling to Morocco was always a dream i had since my younger days!!!

And man...what can I say...that dream got fulfilled in an extraordinary way infact!

I got married to a Moroccan!!!
😂😂😂


Coming back to my Moroccan dream...

The main reason I wanted to visit this country, was mainly for it's culture and cuisine diversity...

It's simply heaven for chefs like me, you can't get fresher products like that of Morocco.

And the price tag...so affordable!


Today I will show you around, via lots of photos, my visit to a small coastal town , Imsouane.

It is found quite near Agadir with a population just below 10k!

I've heard a lot about Imsouane and specially the fish and seafoods over there...

I was indeed not disappointed!


After staying a night at Agadir, our next stop was at Imsouane...to discover the fish and seafood!!!

This is the view we had while stepping out from our car.
😍😍😍

Imsouane beach.


After a 2 minutes walk...we finally found THE PLACE I was looking for...

The fish market just next to the beach, with fishermen just disembarking their catch!

My wife, being Moroccan, recommended that we go for the sardines and sole fish to be eaten there for lunch and couple of others for take away.

Once we selected our fish, we handed them to the guys just at the back for cleaning which they charge only a couple of Dirhams.

And you just have to walk one minute away to give the clean fish to small restaurants to cook it for you - they charge only for the cooking!
And all cooked on charcoal grill...

Here's our grilled sardines and sole!

Overall, this lunch and experience was among the best I had in my entire life.

After lunch...me and my daughter decided to go to explore the beach...

But we couldn't swim...check below, you will know why! 🤔🤔🤔

Firstly the sea was quite rough...it's a perfect spot for surfers...

And another thing that caught our attention were the amount of jelly fishes on the beach...kinda scary...

These were all over the place...no idea why!

So we simply took some photos and continued our journey.

Morocco is a beautiful country.
When I'm there, I eat fish and fish and fish.
My children just like that.
