What are the best beaches to visit on your Agadir holidays?

Holidays to Agadir are all about big, big waves and breezy shores, which can mean only one thing: watersports, baby! But even if you'd rather plonk down a towel and not move an inch (we feel ya), there are plenty of beach spots 'round these parts to give you those laidback coastal vibes. Give these a whirl:

• Agadir Beach - duh, we couldn't not mention this one. It's the main event, decked out with sun loungers and watersport facilities, and backed by a promenade lined with cafés and shops

• Taghazout Beach - located to the north of the city with a laidback, hippy charm, this place is an absolute surf haven if you fancy riding the waves

Agadir Holidays 2026 / 2027 Travel Guide

Things to Do for Families in Agadir

Agadir is a kid-approved paradise for a family holiday. Build sandcastles on Agadir Beach, hop on a camel for the ultimate “guess what I did on holiday” brag, or head to Crocoparc to eyeball Nile crocodiles up close. Add Vallee des Oiseaux mini-zoo for flamingos and parrots, then grab ice cream on the palm-lined promenade. Family snaps = sorted.

Things to Do for Couples in Agadir

Romance here is all about sunsets, spice and starry skies. Picture hand-in-hand walks on Taghazout Beach, hammam spa treatments made for two, and candlelit seafood dinners with ocean views. Escape the city on a dreamy day trip to Paradise Valley, where turquoise pools and waterfalls look straight out of a rom-com montage. It's all you could ever need on a couples holiday.

Things to Do for Groups in Agadir

Pack your squad for sun, surf and souk-hopping, it's what group holidays are made for. Take surf lessons in Taghazout, blast across the dunes on ATVs, or flex your haggling skills in Souk El Had (group discount, anyone?). When the sun sets, hit a shisha lounge or rooftop bar for mint tea, cocktails and a side of Moroccan beats. Feeling adventurous? Round up the gang for a day trip to Essaouira’s whitewashed walls and buzzing medina.

Things to Do for Foodies in Agadir

Food is where Agadir really shows off. Devour sizzling sardines fresh off the grill, tuck into tagines bursting with flavour, and wander Souk El Had for spices that’ll transform your home cooking. The Marina is perfect for a posh seafood platter, while the old medina offers street snacks that hit different (honey-drizzled chebakia, anyone?). Bonus: some fish markets will cook your catch on the spot – fresher than fresh.
