RoyJava Says: Visit the ancient Kasbah on the summit of Cap Ghir. It is the only historic site in town and tourists get here if only to see the fine views back across the new modern city.Some history: Agadir's most beautiful site is "Citadel", looking down on the ocean. In town you'll...
RoyJava Says: We went for an after breakfast travel 100 km to Tiznit, a fine crenelated walled of pink ochre city. It was created by Sultan Moulay Hassan (somewhere in the middle of the 19th century) to and established a reputation by settling Jewish "silver artisans" within the walls of...
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...
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!
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
Sibo10 Says: Mezzo Mezzo - The best pizzas in town. Very good wine selection. Iced bottle beers; no tap beer. Small, cozy and very elegant decor, I especially like the hand-made lamps. The waiters are friendly and attentative. Quatro Stazione. It's just great!
catherineneill Says: SHOCKING!! We went out for dinner one night and ended up going to a nightclub with some guys from the restaurant. OH MY WORD. The club was FULL of prostitutes and middle aged dutchc men rubbing their hands together with glee. YUK. I did NOT expect to see that in morocco, but...

Best Private Tour Guide in Morocco!!
Cruiseone2003 Says: I have used Abdou as a guide for my 1 day visit to Agadir, he used his car and drove my friends and I to Touradant which is his home town and gave us a personal tour and then drove us back to make a ships sail away that afternoon. What I liked about Abdou is he's a genuinely...
catherineneill Says: Buses leave Agadir from the Rue Yacoub El Mansour. Cost about 60 dirhams. The journey takes about 5-6 hours and offers some spectacular views of the atlas mountains. You may wet yourself on the journey, not only because the bus has no toilets but because the driving is pure...
Berber Make-up: Lipstick on your collar?
RoyJava Says: Up in the mountains of Agadir it's a great experience meeting the Berber people. Take a look insight and into the unique culture of the proud Berber people with the most famous Blue People of the Tuareg Berbers (to meet the last group you have to enter the desert!).One of...
In The Souk: Carpets In Hot Colours
RoyJava Says: When you want to buy carpets, it's good to know there are 2 different types. The old ones are named "Rural carpets", next to the modern "Urban carpets". You pay for the value by the number of knots (so go for a count), or strands of warp I heard. When you absolutely donot...
RoyJava Says: Easy to know about the Moroccan money ...In Morocco you pay with Dirham (DH), with notes of 10 - 20 - 50 - 100 - 200. You may get coins of 1 - 5 - 10 and the 50 centimes-coins.Go for change to the bank, they will charge no commission. Credit card and cheque book can be used,...

Bakhzouz Tours in Agadir-service quality depends o
Ewa2023 Says: I would like to warn you against Bakhzouz Tours travel agency run by Ibrahim and his family, who hunt for tourists in Agadir and in some hotels are even recommended to them!The price for their tours vary depending on a client and the way they estimate his wealth. They sell...
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. I expect it is because the men here are used to lots of package holiday women here...
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
RoyJava Says: This is the famous Argan Tree (Argania Spinosa), not that well-known outside Morocco. You'll find this thorny tree in the South-westerly area, somewhere between Essaouira and Agadir.I heard the tree can grow older than the olive, no cultivation requiring. Because goats love...
Helpfulness
I have Norwegian friends who travel back to their family at Hassania for a couple of months each year too (Sept to Nov) and I have taken the opp to visit and stay with them while they are there - on the outskirts of Agadir on the way to Taghazout and the beaches along the way are their favourites - including at Taghazoute - which is a nice little town with all the surfers requirements including classes, surfboard shops, internet cafe etc....On further (towards Essaouira) is at least one big camping ground that I know of, with a good cafe restaurant popular with my friends in a nice spot beside the beach.
You could try a google for Atlantic Park which is the name of camping ground between Taghazout and Agadir and might be about 60 dirham a night for 3 of you.
Another friend of mine has also recommend this park but also recommends Immousouane, and I have page on Immousouane or at least tips in my Agadir travel page, its a lovely village and famous also for surfing - my friend says theres a really good camping ground there (Immousouane Camping) and probably about 50 dirham a night. You can catch a bus up and then get off at the turnoff and then catch a taxi to Immousouane.
There are quite frequent local buses that run in and out of Agadir, and as in most places grande taxis service main travel routes.
also famed places for surfing are at Tamri and down the coast from Agadir at Sidi Ifni.
As for safety many places in Morocco have an enclosure for safety at night and shut their gates with a night guardian as well to look after the entrance. The Atlantic Park Ive seen that it is fenced.
