Drive Agadir’s coastal road to Taghazout, Aghroud and the Tabouga dunes for a late-afternoon tour that ends with the Atlantic slipping into sunset. Short walks, surf viewpoints and a dune climb make this an accessible coastal experience.

Late-afternoon light slides across the Atlantic as the minivan peels away from Agadir’s boulevards and climbs the coastal ribbon toward Taghazout. Salt air presses at the window; fishermen’s nets and low cafes blur past while the road alternates between cliff-edge turns and sandy shoulders. You make short stops at surf-ready coves and painted fishing villages, then climb a sand ladder to set your feet on dunes that slope into the ocean — the sea pulling the horizon toward evening.

Time your arrival

Footwear for sand
Wear closed sandals or flexible trail shoes to climb dunes comfortably and protect from hot sand.
