Exotic Agadir is a coastal city with vast stretches of beaches framing the idyllic cerulean blues of the Atlantic. There’s a modern marina and a vast hilltop Kasbah as well ornate palaces, mosques and colourful gardens. The city is a great choice for beach lovers as well as hikers, who should head out for a walk from the city centre, taking in the Mohammed V Mosque and the Valley of Birds before ascending to the impressive remains of the Agadir Oufella fortress to take in the stunning panoramas of the surrounding sea and mountains.
