Port summary

Agadir's port is an active cargo and fishing harbour with no dedicated cruise terminal, and the 3 km walk into town crosses an industrial zone, so take the cruise shuttle or a petit taxi. The city is modern, rebuilt after the 1960 earthquake, with a long beach and promenade, the vast Souk El Had, a marina and the hilltop Kasbah Oufella reached by a new cable car. Bigger trips run to Paradise Valley, Taroudant and the Souss-Massa National Park. Carry dirhams for taxis and the souk, agree fares or insist on the meter, and allow a generous return buffer.
