With approximately 340 days of sunshine a year and six kilometres of soft white-sand beaches, Agadir is Morocco’s premiere beach resort. Nestled among the verdant valleys of the Great Souss and with the majestic range of the Anti-Atlas rearing up behind it, this modern, cosmopolitan city has all the attendant pleasures, thrills and luxuries you could ask for.

About agadir

The beating heart of Agadir around which everything revolves is its spectacular crescent shaped bay. The white sandy beach, which stretches as far as the eye can see, provides some of the safest bathing in Morocco and is the daytime destination for most visitors. Whether it is soaking up the sun, taking a camel ride or catching some waves, the beach provides something for all tastes. Tracing the curve of the bay is Boulevard 20 Aout, Agadir’s main thoroughfare along which you will find many of its exclusive hotels and beachside resorts and a host of cafés, bars and restaurants. One block from here, you will find the city's main shopping area, centerd on Boulevard Hassan II and Avenue du Prince Moulay Abdullah. Further inland is the area of New Talborjt, where most of Agadir’s budget accommodation is to be found.
