More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
The morning light in Agadir hits the water with a flat, honest glare — enough to read the surface, not to hide it. You meet your guide outside your hotel, a thermos of mint tea already steaming in the passenger seat. The drive to the coast is short but decisive: palm trees give way to low scrub, then the shore unrolls, rocks and sand carved by wind and waves. The guide points to the line where land drops into swell and, with calm authority, hands you the rod.
