Why Morocco
Why American travellers love Morocco.
American travellers come to Agadir for the sun and the sea: a long Atlantic beach, big resort hotels, year-round warmth, the surf and yoga scene at Taghazout, and easy family days out into Paradise Valley and the Souss-Massa coast — all in one relaxed, well-run corner of Morocco.
Getting there
Flights from United States
Royal Air Maroc flies nonstop from New York (JFK), Washington (IAD), Boston and Miami to Casablanca (CMN) in about 7–8 hours, with a short onward flight to Agadir Al Massira (AGA).
Best arrival airports: Casablanca (CMN) or Marrakech (RAK), then Agadir (AGA). We meet every guest in arrivals and drive you door to door — see airport transfers.
Do you need a visa?
United States passport holders do not need a visa for Morocco. You may enter visa-free — including at Agadir Al Massira (AGA) — and stay for up to 90 days for tourism; just bring a passport valid for at least six months beyond your arrival date.
Time difference
Agadir is about 6 hours ahead of United States (it stays on UTC+1 year-round), which makes for an easy, eastward adjustment.
When to go
The best time to visit.
Agadir is year-round sun — over 300 days a year — so there is no truly bad time to come. April–June and September–October bring warm, dry beach days without peak crowds; July–August are hottest and busiest; and October–March is prime winter-sun season, with mild, bright days that make Agadir one of the warmest winter escapes in reach of Europe. The Atlantic stays swimmable most of the year, and the surf at Taghazout is best from autumn through spring.
