Agadir is known for its beaches, sunshine, and relaxed vibes, but it’s also a city full of contrast and energy. For travelers who want more than just a beach holiday, Agadir offers a perfect blend: catch waves in the morning and explore local culture in the evening. It’s the ideal destination to feed your adventurous side and your curiosity at the same time.
Here’s how to make the most of it.
Morning: Surfing the Best Waves Around Agadir
Start your day right, with salt in your hair and a surfboard under your arm.
Whether you’re a beginner or already have some surf experience, the coastline around Agadir has something for everyone. At Everyone’s Surf Morocco, we tailor our sessions based on wave conditions, your skill level, and your vibe. Some of our favorite morning spots include:
Anza – super consistent and uncrowded in the early morning
Agadir Beach – ideal for beginners and fun longboard sessions
Imsouane or Devil’s Rock (on special days) long rides and laid-back vibes
After a few solid waves and some coaching, you’ll leave the water feeling fresh, accomplished, and ready for the next adventure.
Midday: Chill, Refuel & Recharge
After your surf session, enjoy a slow, relaxed Moroccan lunch, maybe a fresh seafood tajine, avocado juice, or mint tea by the beach. Agadir has plenty of cozy cafés and beachside terraces perfect for recovering after a few hours in the sun.
🕌 Evening: Discover the Cultural Soul of Agadir
As the sun begins to set, it’s time to explore Agadir’s hidden gems beyond the waves. Head to the Medina of Agadir (La Médina Agadir), a reconstructed version of the ancient city destroyed in 1960. Wander through stone alleys, artisan shops, and quiet courtyards full of Moroccan charm.
Or go deeper into the local culture by:
Visiting the Souk El Had, one of the largest markets in North Africa
Catching sunset from the Kasbah Oufella ruins for panoramic city views
Enjoying a traditional Hammam or massage after your day of surfing
Don’t miss the opportunity to experience Moroccan music, crafts, and street food, it's the perfect way to wind down after an active day.
Adventure + Culture = The Ultimate Surf Trip
What makes Agadir special is its balance you can enjoy wild, physical adventures in the ocean and still connect with the soul of Moroccan culture just a few hours later.
At Everyone’s Surf Morocco, we believe surfing is more than just a sport — it’s a way to explore, grow, and connect. That’s why we encourage all our guests to experience both the surf and the spirit of Agadir.
