October to May


To the west of the country, facing the Atlantic waves, Agadir is one of the pearls of Morocco. Whatever the season, the sun smiles down on the city and it enjoys a pleasant climate that the trade winds soften further. Above all, its 10-kilometer long seafront offers tourists magnificent views of the blue of the ocean and the opportunity to relax in the best conditions imaginable.
As the country’s main coastal resort, the city boasts 300 days of sunshine a year and bustles with activity. Cafes and restaurants open onto the waterfront, introducing you to the local cuisine and offering their specialties for the informed judgment of your taste buds!
Agadir also caters to adventure lovers. Surfing, windsurfing, and jet-skiing are popular activities. While nearby Souss-Massa National Park offers opportunities for birdwatching and exploring Morocco’s diverse landscapes.
Food enthusiasts will love Agadir’s vibrant culinary scene. Fresh seafood is a highlight, with local dishes like grilled sardines and tagine taking center stage. Don’t miss the chance to visit the Souk El Had. It is one of the largest markets in Morocco, where you can shop for spices, crafts, and unique souvenirs.



Further into the city, the stalls of the El Had Bazaar wend their way through the streets, with over 6,000 boutiques to arouse your curiosity and where you can practice a little haggling with the traders while strolling through the vibrant atmosphere. The city never sleeps and every summer hosts the Timitar festival dedicated to world music, and in particular Amazigh music.
Open to the ocean and the world, Agadir is an energetic city in which to relax.
