Agadir

The picturesque beach resort and bustling port of Agadir city lies 10 kilometers north of the Sous valley, in southwestern Morocco. This city was entirely reconstructed, after the ugly 1960 earthquake devastated it to the maximum. Offering an exotic mix of sun, sand, and pubs, Agadir has still managed to retain its old-world charm.

The beauty of Agadir is perfectly described by its quaint downtown streets and picturesque beachfront promenade. The Kasbah also adds to the charm of the city with its impressive medieval Arabic architectural designs.

The enchanting city of Agadir is packed with a host of ancient as well as contemporary attractions. The prime places of interest in Agadir include the pristine Agadir Beach, the hammam, the Memoire d’Agadir museum, La Médina d’Agadir, and the Vallée des Oiseaux.
