The short answer
Walk out of arrivals to the official grand-taxi rank and pay the posted fixed fare: 300 MAD (~€28) to Taghazout or Tamraght, 250 MAD to Anza and 200 MAD to central Agadir, for the whole car. The ride takes 25–50 minutes. Fares rise by about 50 MAD between 20:00 and 06:00. Taxis take cash only, so withdraw dirhams at the airport ATM first.
The official fixed taxi tariffs (autumn 2026)
Agadir Al Massira Airport (AGA) operates under an official municipal tariff board displayed right outside the arrivals exit. You do not need to negotiate. The price is for the entire vehicle (up to 4–6 passengers):
| Destination | Distance | Travel time | Day fare | Night fare (20:00–06:00) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Agadir City Center / Beach Strip | 25 km | 25–30 mins | 200 MAD (~€19) | 250 MAD (~€23) |
| Anza Beach | 32 km | 35 mins | 250 MAD (~€23) | 300 MAD (~€28) |
| Tamraght Hillside / Village | 42 km | 45 mins | 300 MAD (~€28) | 350 MAD (~€32) |
| Taghazout Village / Taghazout Bay | 48 km | 50 mins | 300 MAD (~€28) | 350 MAD (~€32) |
| Imsouane Port & Bay | 110 km | 1h 45m | 650 MAD (~€60) | 750 MAD (~€70) |
Step-by-step arrival walkthrough at AGA
- Passport Control: Fill out your digital entry declaration or disembarkation slip if prompted. Passport queues typically take 25–45 minutes depending on European flight arrivals.
- Currency Exchange & ATMs: Withdraw 400–600 MAD from the ATMs in the baggage claim or arrivals hall. Taxis do not accept foreign credit cards.
- Ignore Unofficial Touts: As you pass through the sliding glass doors into the public arrival hall, men in civilian clothes may ask "Taxi, my friend?". Ignore them or say "I have a pre-booked driver".
- Walk to the Official Grand Taxi Rank: Walk straight out of the terminal across the pedestrian crosswalk to the covered Grand Taxi rank. There is an official dispatcher sitting at a podium or kiosk. State your destination ("Taghazout" or "Tamraght") and confirm the price: "300 dirhams, correct?".
Option 2: pre-booked private transfer (€30–€35)
If you want zero hassle after a long flight, almost all surf camps and boutique guesthouses in Taghazout and Tamraght arrange private driver pickups:
- A licensed tourist transport driver waits in the arrivals hall holding a sign with your name.
- Price is typically €30 to €35 (320–380 MAD) each way.
- They monitor flight delays, assist with surfboard travel bags, and drop you directly at your accommodation doorstep (which is crucial in hillside Tamraght where streets can be hard to find for regular street taxis).
Option 3: the public bus (for shoestring budgets)
There is no direct public bus from Agadir Airport to Taghazout. To do it by public transit:
- Walk 10 minutes out of the airport compound to the main highway roundabout.
- Catch ALSA Bus Line 105 to Inezgane bus station (5 MAD, 40 mins).
- Transfer at Inezgane to ALSA Bus Line 32 or Line 33 heading north towards Taghazout (7.50 MAD, 60 mins).
The bus costs around 15 MAD (~€1.40) in total, but the journey takes 2.5 to 3 hours and means dragging luggage through crowded transit hubs. Only worth it on a shoestring budget with a midday arrival.
