Agadir Holidays

With a seemingly bottomless supply of year-round sunshine, temperatures here are warmer than can be expected in other Moroccan coastal resorts, so if you are a sunworshipper, head straight for Agadir - the beach goes on for miles.

With a port that is second only to Casablanca, Agadir is a "purpose-built" resort and has little of the ambience and history of Morocco remaining apart from the last vestiges of a kasbah (destroyed in the earthquake of 1960) high on the point overlooking the glittering swathe of Agadir's coastline. But with the excellent, wide, sandy beach, its proliferation of street-side cafes, restaurants, shops and bars, where the night never seems to end, the ingredients for a holiday to remember are all there for the taking.

For history and the sights and sounds of Morocco, the pink-walled city of Taroudant with its exciting souks is just 45 minutes away, or the superbly picturesque Tafraout dominated by fantastical rocks, or Goulmine, a desert town where the "blue men" come from the desert to trade their camels.

For the golfer there are a variety of nearby courses.
