What to Wear in Agadir: Beach, Town & Winter Packing Tips

What to wear in Agadir

Agadir is Morocco's most relaxed beach resort, so dress codes are easier here than in the old medinas. Beachwear is normal on the sand and at the pool; in town, the souk and on day trips, lightweight clothes that cover shoulders and knees are more respectful. Winter evenings are cooler than many visitors expect. Here is what to pack.
