Al-Massira Airport ( 0528 83 91 12; www.onda.ma; N10) , mainly served by European
charter flights and budget airlines, is 28km southeast of Agadir en route to Taroudannt. There
are exchange facilities, ATMs, car-hire booths, a post office and a couple of cafes here.
Royal Air Maroc Offline map Google map (RAM; 0528 82 91 20; www.royalairmaroc.com;Ave du Général Kettani) has daily flights to/from Casablanca and Paris, and to/from Dakhla on
Wednesday.
Bus
Although a good number of buses serve Agadir, it is quite possible you’ll end up in Inezgane,
13km south, the regional transport hub. Check before you buy your ticket. Plenty of grands
taxis (Dh10) and local buses (Dh8) shuttle between there and Agadir.
All the major bus companies, and plenty of smaller companies, serve the massive circular
gare routière (bus station; Blvd Abderrahim Bouabid) , past Souq al-Had. If you want to travel
on a specific bus, it is worth booking ahead.
CTM ( 0528 22 55 96; www.ctm.ma), which also has a Nouveau Talborjt office on Rue
Yacoub el-Mansour, just off Place Lahcen Tamri, has regular departures to these destinations.

the corner of Blvd Hassan II and Ave des FAR, offers similar, slightly more expensive services.
Car & Motorcycle
Car hire is never cheap in Morocco, but you can find some of the country’s best deals in Agadir.
The distances involved in touring the region, particularly further south, make it worthwhile
considering car rental.
With the local agencies around the corner of Blvd Hassan II and Ave des FAR, prices start at
around Dh300 per day for the smallest car, though there’s usually room for haggling. The big
companies (including Avis, Europcar and Hertz) and some smaller operators all have offices on
Ave Mohammed V, near the bottom of Ave du Général Kettani. Scooters and motorbikes are
