Agadir Beach for April
If you get tired of the civilised beaches, just south of Agadir several wild beaches dominate the landscape. Tifnit, a small fishing village, has incredible sand dunes that go on for over 4km. Beyond Tifnit is Sidi Moussa d'Aglou and Sidi Ifini and the surfing mecca of Mirleft. Much of the beach is fine white sand and in Mirleft the huge waves crashing in from the Atlantic rival those found along any other famous surfer hangouts.
There are plenty of places to stay nearby if you don't want to be right in the centre of the Agadir resort area. The Riad des Golfe is midway between one of the attractive local golf courses and ocean. A five star hotel, there are shuttles provided to the beaches.
