    Tips

    May 15, 2025

    Hendrix visited the area for eleven days in the summer of 1969, shortly before his era-defining performance at the Woodstock Festival. By this time, Hendrix had established himself as one of the most revered musicians anywhere in the world. The story goes that on arrival, the guitarist, accompanied by two friends, hired a limousine and asked the driver to take him to Essaouira, where he stayed in Hotel des Iles, a modest spot just yards from the city’s old town.

    Today, Hendrix is an ever-present spectre in Essaouria and Diabet. Countless technicolour paintings of him adorn the walls of The Cafe Jimi Hendrix, while the lyrics to ‘Castles Made Of Sand’ have been painted in a shock of blue across its cream exterior.
