If however you’re set on a resort break with plenty of sun, booking a trip to Agadir could be a gamble. Morocco is of course famous for its souks (markets), so if you’re keen on shopping then heading to Agadir’s large souk could take up a whole day! Between candles, herbs & spices, bags and jewellery, you’ll find something for everyone there - and it’s a great way to experience Moroccan culture.īeing a tourist location, Agadir has plenty of excursions you can take up including quad biking, jet skiing and other water sports too. How Agadir makes up for the weatherįor days when the weather isn’t great, there’s still a few things you can do to keep entertained. It’s not all doom and gloom because there are many days when you’ll get beautiful clear blue skies and not a cloud in sight, but when you’re forking out money on a beach holiday, inconsistent weather isn’t something you want to be worrying about.Īnd to be clear, I went back to Agadir once again this year (this time in August) and it was the same some days clear, some days grey. Move further in-land and the weather does clear up - something I noticed when we were away on excursions like quad biking - but if you’re intending on lounging on a sun-bed or on the sand at the beach, Agadir’s unpredictable weather makes it very difficult. I tried swimming in the resort’s pools, and it just didn’t feel comfortable or nice without the sun out. So while you’ll still be sitting in 20+ degree heat, you’ll probably end up needing a thin coat/jumper anyway because of the breeze and overcast conditions. Then continuation to Marrakech by the High Atlas Mountains.Agadir’s unpredictable (and often cloudy) weather is one of its only downsidesĪpparently, because of its location on the coast of Africa, Agadir catches the cold air off the Atlantic and when it meets the warm Moroccan air, it creates a lot of fog and cloudy conditions.Reach Ouarzazate via the Skoura palm grove.
