Surfing in Taghazout: lessons and beginner spots

Twenty minutes north of Agadir, Taghazout has become Morocco's surf capital. Its steady waves and mild water suit every level: schools run beginner lessons with an instructor and gear provided on the sandy beaches of Tamraght and Banana Beach, while point breaks like Anchor Point thrill advanced surfers from September to April. A half-day intro is enough to stand up. Many packages include transfer from Agadir and a surf + yoga combo.

Paradise Valley and nature trips

In the foothills of the Anti-Atlas, Paradise Valley lines up turquoise natural pools, palm trees and rocks to jump from. It's the most popular half- or full-day trip from Agadir, often combined with an argan-oil tasting at a women's cooperative and a Berber lunch. Thrill-seekers add a quad or buggy ride in the dunes, or a sunset camel ride along the beach. Agadir's mild climate makes these activities possible almost year-round.

Trips to Marrakech, Essaouira and the desert

Well placed on the southern coast, Agadir is a great base for day trips. Essaouira, the windy UNESCO-listed town, is about a 2.5h drive. Marrakech, the red city, is 3 hours away for a medina-and-souks day. Nature lovers head to Morocco's 'little Switzerland' around Imouzzer and its waterfalls, or to a one-day desert taste. These organised tours include air-conditioned transport and hotel pick-up — ideal if you're staying at an Agadir beach resort.
