Between the fragrant green of the eucalyptus, the pines, the tamarisk and the enchanting blue of a limpid, invigorating ocean only barely darker than the blue of the sky in which a brilliant sun shines every day, stretches a sublime beach of fine, golden sand, ten kilometres long. The beach at Agadir. This is the magnificent, natural setting which was chosen for the most beautiful, the most highly regarded and the most hospitable of all Moroccan seaside resorts. You can play tennis or golf, sail, go horse riding, try your hand at water skiing, diving, deep sea fishing... taste all kinds of fresh fish, the finest North African cuisine.., dance until dawn... and fall asleep in the welcoming luxury of a hotel offering the very finest service.., enjoy a change of air in the imposing High Atlas, meet the famous "blue men" and discover the souks of a medieval or pre-Saharan township... The choice is yours. Beneath the Agadir sun, holidaymakers are kings. 
 
Now let the fun begin! 
 
With the pink flamingos looking on in bewilderment a wind surfer skims over the surface of the water in a flash of colour hat stands out in vivid contrast against the blue of the sea and the sky. Children play happily, building castles in the sand. Holidaymakers lie contentedly in the sun, putting the finishing touches to their tan while others stroll along the shore. A game of volleyball gets under way... 
 
To the gentle lapping rhythm of the waves, your skin deliciously caressed by a warming sun, you relax on a chaise longue with your hands buried in the warm sand, idly watching everything happening on the beach and reflect with a smile, "How delightful it is to do nothing in the middle of all this activity"  
 
In 1505 the tiny village of Agadir made Its first mark on history. The Portuguese set up a trading post there, defended by the Santa Cruz fortress on Cap de GuC. A profitable, but brief stay. In 1541 they were ejected by the founder of the Saadian dynasty, Mohamed Echeikh El Mehdi. The Golden Age of Agadir then followed, with ships arriving every day to take on cargoes of sugar cane, dates, wax, skins, oils, spices and gold. But over the years Agadir went into decline until, in 1960, it was destroyed by an earthquake. "If it was Agadir's destiny to be destroyed, its reconstruction will depend on our faith and our determination", declared the late Mohamed V, King of Morocco. 
 
So here is the new Agadir, the holiday capital! Constructed away from the areas at risk, using anti-seismic techniques, Agadir is an engaging town, the dominant white of its sculptural buildings contrasted with the multi-coloured flowers that adorn its tranquil gardens. There is an ultra-modern airport, an imposing central post office and primary school and the monumental courthouse. Near the mosque, the holidaymakers drink in the sea air, sitting at tables on the cafe terraces or strolling around the bazaars. While a little further away there is all the bustling activity surrounding the most important fishing port in Morocco, with its fleet of spruce trawlers bobbing up and down on the Atlantic swell.  
 
Take a deep breath, fill your lungs with the pure, salty air, let the energy flow through you and... go for it! Head out towards the horizon under full sail, leap onto a thoroughbred and gallop across the beach at full speed, ride the breakers on a surf board, climb into the sky with a parachute over the water or dive beneath it to admire the richly varied submarine life and finish in style on one of the most beautiful golf courses in Morocco, with a birdie at the 18th hole. Or you might prefer to go deep sea fishing off Cap Ghir and catch a tuna fish, or win a set on one of the 150 tennis courts before taking a dive into one of the towns' many swimming pools... In Agadir, sports enthousiasts feel like they are in heaven. 
 
In the port of agadir 
 
The world's biggest sardine fishing port is a constant hive of activity. The ships sound their sirens, the multicoloured trawlers tie up, the tanned and weathered seamen repair the nets, the fishermen noisily unload cases of wriggling fish, sardines, whiting, sea perch, mullet and tuna as well as shrimps, lobsters and crayfish. To sample this harvest of the sea, grilled, with a dash of lemon juice, or in tajines, you can visit any one of the friendly little restaurants strung along the port and sit at long, wooden tables which you will share with the fishermen themselves.
