Fish Souq

Chris Griffiths/Lonely Planet

Man selling fish at Essaouira's fish market; he leans over his table to grab a couple of fish that are laid out in neat piles.

Join the locals and street cats picking up their fresh fish at this small market. For a cheap lunch, buy half a dozen sardines, and for around Dh10 one of the neighboring cafes will grill them for you and serve them up with bread and a simple salad.
