How to Get from Agadir to Tamraght: All options, prices and instructions

When we landed in Agadir, we weren’t totally sure how we’d get to Tamraght. We had a rough plan, but we still needed to figure things out on the spot. Now, after doing it ourselves, we can say it’s a lot easier (and cheaper) than it looks—if you know what to expect.

Getting from Agadir to Tamraght shouldn’t be guesswork or hassle. After actually taking the trip—on buses, vans, and the occasional taxi—we’re sharing the real, up-to-date options, costs, and small details that nobody warns you about.

This firsthand guide covers what worked for us, what flopped, and how to book transport stress free. Whether you value comfort or just want to save a few dirhams, you’ll find straight answers and smart tips here.

The Basics: Agadir to Tamraght / Taghazout – Distance, Vibe & more

The stretch from Agadir to Tamraght is only about 14km, but don’t let Google Maps fool you—Morocco does “time” its own way. Tamraght and Taghazout is where the chill, surfy, backpacker crowd merges with digital nomads and sunset chasers. Expect waves, tagines, and the usual question “Do you have Wi-Fi?”.

These actionable tips are perfect whether you are reaching Tamraght or 20 minutes further up the coast to Taghazout.

Cheat Sheet: Agadir to Taghazout and Tamraght Transport Options

Is Tamraght/Taghazout easy to reach without a car?

100% yes. Local transport is more than enough to reach either Tamraght or Taghazout, and the numbers #32 and #33 pass by Awrir and stretch further up the coast. You can even base yourself in Agadir if you fancy a hotel and more nightlife, taking occasional day trips to Taghazout for the waves.

Transport Options: The honest breakdown

The Direct AC Bus

If you arrive late or prefer a more comfortable option, there’s a better alternative: an air-conditioned coach bus that operates until 23:50, ideal for late-night arrivals. It costs 50 dh, takes about 30 minutes, and goes direct to Tamraght—no stops, and then Taghazout after.

👉 Book it in advance with online payment here (50 dh).

We didn’t use this one ourselves, but were considering it before deciding to spend two nights in a fantastic resort in Agadir. Anyway, the main perk of taking the AC Bus direct from Agadir to Taghazout is that you can book online. Check the availability.

Mini Van Shuttle | Shared Van to Your Hotel

Another stress-free option is to get a Mini Van Shuttle. To be fair, this is ideal for a group of friends, or if you are landing late at night. The service is convenient, door-to-door, hassle-free, but it’s expensive in our opinion.

You can book online in advance for 250 dh, and it will take you straight to your accommodation in Tamraght or Taghazout from the airport.

You get AC, space for luggage, and you skip the walk uphill with your bags.

If it’s your first time in Morocco, or you’re travelling with gear or family, this might be the easier call.

The Local Bus: The Cheapest Way from Agadir to Tamraght

The best budget option? Bus 32 and 33. It costs just 5.50 dirhams per person to Tamraght (a bit more, up to around 11 dirhams, if you’re riding further up to Taghazout), and we paid directly on board. It’s local, crowded, and chaotic—but it works.

We caught the #32 from Agadir, not so far from The View Agadir where we stayed. While it wasn’t the most comfortable ride (we stood the whole way with backpacks), it only took about 30 minutes. If you’ve done buses in Southeast Asia, you’ll manage this just fine.

Buses run frequently during the day, but please note that there is no fixed schedule. Ours arrived late and stopped a few hundred meters short of the official Google Maps stop. Look for locals waiting around—when in doubt, ask someone.

Taxi from Agadir

Taxis from Agadir to Tamraght can cost you 100–150 dh, depending on your luggage, time of day, and negotiation skills. We were quoted 120 dh at the airport, which felt steep for a 25-minute ride.

However, we were travelling with backpacks, so it was much better to save some money. But if you are travelling with luggage, it might be worth it, and you can split the cost.

That said, if you’re landing super late and the bus isn’t running, this becomes your fallback.

Scooter Rental – We Passed (and Here’s Why)

Renting a scooter sounded fun at first. But when we received quotes (around 180dh/day for a tired little 125cc), saw the patchwork roads (unmarked, potholed, and occasionally vanishing), and realised what “Moroccan insurance” really meant, we bailed and never looked back.

It would have been fun, but honestly considering that isn’t easy to drive in Morocco, you’ll need a set of skills to survive on a tiny scooter there.

That’s us in the photo above, waiting for the bus right outside Agadir Airport arrivals. We stood at the correct stop for about twenty minutes, dodging taxi drivers who kept trying to pull us toward their cars.

Either way works: the bus (or a taxi) gets you into Agadir first, then it’s the same local bus, taxi, or van options above for the final stretch to Tamraght.

Considering renting a Car? Here’s Why We Didn’t

Renting directly at Agadir Airport looked tempting. However, after doing the math, it didn’t make sense. We weren’t moving around much, and local transport was totally fine.

Prices for renting a car at Agadir Airport start at £30+ per day, with insurance added on top. Additionally, driving in Morocco isn’t exactly relaxing—random crossings, uneven roads, and traffic rules that often feel more like suggestions. Find a bargain on Discover Cars.

We later rented a car in Marrakech when we began a long road trip across Morocco. For just getting to Tamraght? Not worth it unless you’re planning a bigger itinerary.

Our honest advice: Local transport covers Tamraght, Taghazout, and even runs to Paradise Valley (book a group day tour for that one).
