Along the beach of Agadir

Agadir’s beach is as good as they come: a wide expanse of fine sand which extends an impressive distance to the south of the town, is swept each morning and patrolled by mounted police. Along its course are a number of cafés which rent out sunbeds and umbrellas. The ocean – it should be stressed – has a very strong Atlantic undertow and is definitely not suitable for children unless closely supervised. Even adults are advised not to go out swimming alone. At the south end of the beach, wet-biking (jet-skiing; 300dh for 20min) is available at the Palm Beach Club (20dh entry) and near the Hôtel Amadil Beach. Horse and camel rides are also available, and quad bikes and beach buggies can also be rented. You can ride on any of these along the sands, up on the dunes, and over to the estuary (see box opposite). This is reached past an area known as Founty, quite a pleasant place, where a hundred or so villas are scattered behind the sand dunes and eucalyptus forest.

Agadir: Inzegan Suburb

INEZGANE, on the north bank of the Oued Souss, is almost a suburb of Agadir, just 13km distant. The two could hardly be more different, though, for Inezgane is wholly Moroccan, and is a major transport hub for the region – much more so than Agadir – with buses and grands taxis going to most southern destinations. It’s connected with Agadir by local bus #25 and #28 (very frequent) and by frequent grands taxis (4dh a place, arriving/leaving Agadir at Place Salam). Each of these, along with intercity buses, have their own section of the gare routière, which is off Avenue Mokhtar Soussi, a wide street with arcades on both sides, running from the central Place al Massira to the main Agadir road. Across Avenue Mokhtar Soussi, through the arcades, is a wonderful city market, full of fruit, veg, spices, knick-knacks and traditional cosmetics, and a hundred times more authentic than anything you’ll find in Agadir. From Place al Massira, the road makes a ninety-degree turn, and crosses Boulevard Mohammed V, Inezgane’s main street, where you’ll find the post office and most of the shops. Useful bus and grand taxi departures from Inezgane include Taroudannt, Essaouira and Marrakech.

Agadir Old Medina


S
lightly to the south of the city center, this is a place to be discovered with great delight: the new medina was reconstructed from the 1990s onwards by Italian architect Coco Polizzi. Careful urban development, craftsmen and restaurants. It is an original and bold success, where the Moroccan soul still survives. The jewelry souk and the Moorish café are more than worth the detour.
