It is said that the port of Essaouira was founded by the Sultan Sidi Mohammed Ben Abdellah to punish the city of Agadir, where rebellions against the leading power took place.
Soon after its foundation 1770 until the first half of the nineteenth century, the port was the most important trading port between Europe, Africa and the Americas.
Mogador is
the old port of Morocco but when Casablanca grew up to the North
and Agadir to the South, it lost its status.
