HOLIDAY IN AGADIR

Thinking about a summer holiday in Agadir.

Will there be things to do apart from visiting historical sites?
Whats the resort like?
I've been told there is there alot of prostitutes, male/female?

Any places to avoid?
Any useful tips and info welcome!

Hello
Agadir is a modern city. It is known for its beautiful sea. You have to visit Souk El Hed : a famous traditional supermarket in Agadir. Taghazout ( abt 12 kms from agadir ) is another famous place for those who like Surf. and I also sugest that u visit Taroudant ( 80 kms far from Agadir and called Little Marrakesh ) which is an old city with its historical rampards. Hope i ve answered ur question.
By the way , if you like to rent an apartment or taxi driver , feel free to contact me at : warental@yahoo.com

Hi,
I have been visiting Agadir for the past 6 years whilst travelling from Essaouira to Tiznit, to see my cousin. My how its grown, its become very commercialised, and with the recession, guides/touts/shopkeepers/tour companies have become desperate for business. As for prostitutes,you will find it the same as any city worldwide,they are present,and you may be approached for drugs,@#$%& etc, just be very firm and say no. The police, uniform and plain clothes are always omnipresent,and there is very little crime.

However I always have a good time,strolling the prom,bartering for presents,wining and dining,and socialising with the very friendly people. There is a wealth of watersports,golf,desert trips and much more! google or bingo AGADIR for loads of information, visit TRIPADVISER, for up to the minute reviews.

If you are staying for a few weeks, you must visit ESSAOUIRA to the North, and Tiznit/Aglou plage to the south, there is so much to see and do,plan your trip and time wisely,and enjoy.
bon voyage Martyn
