MOGADOR ISLAND
Go there and contact
Island, populated by gulls and falcons, which has become a natural bird reserve and houses the ruins of an old prison.
It is on this island, populated by gulls and Eleonora falcons, and now an ornithological nature reserve, that the oldest traces of habitation on the Essaouira site have been discovered. Mogador, the main island of the Purpuraires archipelago, was home to the great purple factory built by the Mauritanian king Juba II. Deserted since the last century, it features the ruins of an old prison built by Ben Abdallah's grandfather, Sultan Moulay el-Hassan. Visits are forbidden unless a pass is obtained.
