 RoyJava Says:  We drove from Tiznit up in the mountains to Tafraoute, a beautiful, and amazing trip to see the upmost spectacularly contrast of the country in Morocco. The barren Anti-Atlas Mountain slopes next to green oasis create bizarre views around Tafraoute you won't forget that... 

Bird Park

Bird Park, Agadir

 catherineneill Says:  Valee des oiseaux. A good few hours if you have kids, take them to the cheap bird park where there are not only birds but loads of other smelly animals too, and young moroccan couples hiding in the bushes! 

Restaurants

Jour et Nuit: Watch your bill, Agadir

 geoveo Says:  This beach front restaurant. Most restaurants will give you a bill however at this one some of the waiters have a habit of not giving you a paper bill, just asking for the total amount. On two occasions our bill was higher than we'd expected but we just thought we'd not...

Mezzo Mezzo: The best Pizzas in the city, Agadir

Nightlife  

Night clubs: Clubs

Warnings Or Dangers  

Women beware

Women beware, Agadir

 catherineneill Says:  Now we consider ourselves rather decent women, but the amount of times we were harassed and followed and generally abused happened here more than in any other muslim town i have experienced.

Help - Bolted Camel!, Agadir

 RoyJava Says:  Reading about KASBAHS CAMEL TREK we all had to try riding a camel. Not a bad idea, however ... those animals, when very close, are huge with big eyes. And ofcourse not every tourist on his back feels nice, does it?Maybe the nice camel felt a bit of fear, or maybe he just... 

Flying Goats In The Argan Tree

Flying Goats In The Argan Tree, Agadir
