The 10 most beautiful beaches between Agadir and Essaouira
175 km of wild coastline to explore
The coast between Agadir and Essaouira is one of Morocco's most beautiful shorelines. Cliffs, hidden coves, surf beaches and fishing villages follow one another along the coastal road. Here's our selection of the 10 must-visit beaches, from south to north.
1. Agadir Beach
6 km of fine golden sand, the longest beach in the region. Ideal for families, swimming and water sports. Parasols and sun loungers available.
2. Taghazout Beach
Morocco's most famous surf village. Regular waves, laid-back atmosphere, cafés overlooking the ocean. Anchor Point and Killer Point are world-renowned spots.
3. Imsouane Beach
The "magic bay" offers Morocco's longest right-hand wave — perfect for beginners and longboarders. Authentic village, no big hotels, just surfing and simplicity.
4. Tamri Beach
Wild beach surrounded by banana plantations. Powerful surf spot reserved for experienced surfers. The river mouth attracts flamingos in winter.
5. Tifnit Beach
South of Agadir, accessible by track. Preserved fishing village, spectacular cliffs, grilled fish on the beach. Off the beaten path.
Car access
Most of these beaches are not served by public transport. A rental car is essential to explore the coast at your own pace.
