Agadir Marina & Fishing Port

At the northern end of the bay, Agadir's two waterfronts sit side by side: a polished modern marina of white moorings and cafe terraces, and one of Morocco's largest working fishing ports just beyond. Together they make the most maritime corner of the city. Here is what to do around the water's edge.

The best of Agadir

01Waterfront

The Marina Promenade

A pedestrian quay rings the yacht basin, lined with low whitewashed buildings, palm beds and moored sailboats. It is an easy, breezy stroll, especially in the late afternoon when the light turns the water gold.

02Dining

Marina Cafes & Restaurants

Terraces along the basin serve coffee, seafood and international plates with a yacht-side view. Calmer and more upmarket than the central beach strip, it is a pleasant spot for a long lunch or sunset drink.

03Maritime

The Fishing Port

Adjacent to the marina, Agadir's port is among the busiest fishing harbours in the country, landing huge catches of sardines and other Atlantic fish. The bustle of boats, gulls and ice is a vivid slice of working Morocco.

04Dining

Port-Side Grilled Fish

The no-frills fish grills by the port let you pick fresh catch by weight and have it grilled on the spot with bread and salad. It is one of the best-value, most authentic meals in the whole city.

05On the water

Boat Trips & Fishing Excursions

Operators from the marina run bay cruises, sunset sails and sea-fishing outings into the Atlantic. A short trip offshore gives a fresh perspective on the long beach and the kasbah hill above it.

06Scenery

Views of Agadir Oufella

From the marina the eye is drawn up to the ruined hilltop kasbah of Agadir Oufella and its illuminated hillside motto. The waterfront is one of the best places to appreciate the city's dramatic backdrop.

07Experience

Sunset Over the Bay

Because the marina opens west onto the Atlantic, it frames the day's sunset beautifully, with masts and rigging silhouetted against the sky — a quieter alternative to the crowded central promenade.

08Leisure

Marina Shops & Strolling

Small boutiques, ice-cream stands and souvenir spots dot the marina, making it a relaxed place to wander after a meal. The whole development is flat, clean and easy for families and slower walkers.
