How to get to Tamraght from Agadir airport

Al Massira (airport code AGA) sits inland, south-east of Agadir. It is small and easy to walk through: one terminal, passport control, baggage, and then a short arrivals hall with a few car hire desks and a cash machine.
Draw some dirhams before you leave the building. Most drivers want cash, and the rate at the airport machines is better than the exchange counters.
The simplest option. Send us your flight number and landing time and a driver will be waiting in arrivals with your name. The price is fixed and agreed in advance, so there is nothing to negotiate after a long flight.
This is the one we recommend if you are arriving after dark, travelling with children, or carrying board bags.
There is a taxi rank outside arrivals. Fares to the Taghazout and Tamraght stretch are broadly standardised, but agree the number out loud before you put bags in the boot. Ask us beforehand what the going rate is and you will know whether the first number is reasonable.
Grand taxis are shared by design, so a driver may wait to fill the car unless you pay for the whole vehicle. If you want to leave straight away, say that you are taking the full taxi.
The cheapest route is a bus from the airport into Agadir, then a second bus or a shared taxi north along the coast. It works, and it costs a fraction of a transfer.
It also takes the best part of two hours with luggage and a change in the middle. Worth it if you are travelling light and in no hurry; not worth it at eleven at night with a board bag.
Whichever way you come, the last stretch runs north out of Agadir along the water. Cliffs on the right, Atlantic on the left, and a line of surf beaches — Banana Beach, Devil's Rock, Taghazout beyond us.
If you land in daylight, sit on the left. It is the best introduction to the coast you are about to spend a week on.

Tamraght is a village of narrow streets, and the house is easier to find on foot than by map pin. Send us a message when you land and we will send directions, or meet you at the top of the road if it is late.
Check-in is from 2pm, but if you arrive on an early flight we will hold your bags so you can go straight to the beach.
Forty-five minutes from plane to the Atlantic is the short version. Book a transfer if you want it handled, take a taxi if you would rather sort it on arrival, and tell us either way so somebody is expecting you.
