hi we are visiting agadir in june this year and wanted advice on places to go, i have two children.(9 and 5) In october last year i took them to kenya and we visited local villages, small local schools etc. I would like to do the same for our visit in June and wondered if anyone could suggest any villages/schools/places, thanks so much

hi Everyone, As the title of this post suggests, me and my girlfriend are planning on a surf trip to Morroco, the region of Agadir/Taghazout during november this year. Our idea is to spend as much time as possible in the region, so we can stay away from the Scandinavian winter for as long as possible. So at least 2 months. We would like to find a safe camping ground close to some surf spots where we could spend most of our time as the main purpose is to surf. Staying in backpackers and surfcamps would force us to make the trip shorter due to the price these places charge nowadays, so we are taking tents and intend to camp. We also want to take our surfboards, wetsuits etc.. as well as our 4 year old son. Anyway, if someone could share some experience on the following issues it would be very much appreciated: Does anyone know about camping grounds on the region? Fees? Safety on camping grounds? Things to look out for when travelling with kids on the region? Best ways to get around without a car? I have other doubts that are not coming to mind now, but i will post them as the threads come in. Thank you. Rafael.

Hi, has anyone stayed at the Hotel Argana in Agadir? Any idea what it is like? Thanks.

was recommended to use moroccan-discovery transfer company to transport our family from marrakech airport to agadir, have checked out their rates and they seem really reasonable compared with others. has anyone used this company? only this seems much better than using the supratours bus, and direct flights to agadir are way too expensive, which is why we have to fly ryanair into marrackech. would love to hear from someone who has knowledge of this company for they offer reasonable tours as well.

I have read recently where there appears to be quite a good deal of construction and excavation works going on the beach in Agadir. I am heading for Agadir in June, staying at Riu Tikida Dunas - I was wondering if this hotel is in the full view of this construction work? Is this work extensive and does anybody know if it is long term? I am looking forward to going to Morocco for the first time and I would welcome any comments about this area of Agadir. With this work going on, is the beach inaccessible or does it interfere with the beach access? Is this hotel as good as the reviews that have been submited? Are mosquitos a problem here? I always seem to attract these unwanted visitors!! Does any member have any suggestion on avoiding these attacks from these mosquitos? An intake of garlic tablets prior to departure was suggested to me - useful suggestion or not? I'd welcome comments or suggestions. Bdavitt

Hello, I am going to post this in several places in order to try to figure this out. I went to my local currency exchange place and bought Moroccan dirhams...or so I thought...I said that's what I wanted. I have some 100 and 200 dirham bills. But, I have been reading that one cannot buy Moroccan money outside the country. What is happening? Are these not real Moroccan dirhams...I know that the dirham is the currency for several Arab countries..and these look like the pictures that I've seen of Moroccan money. Should I take them back, exchange them back into dollars, put the money in the bank, then withdraw through the ATM's in Morocco. I want to bring enough to buy a small carpet. Please help me to decide! Thank you very much.
