Morocco is generally a very safe country to visit and violent crime towards tourists is rare, if not unheard of. Agadir streets are filled with uniformed local police consistently patrolling the streets to ensure the safety of its citizens. Agadir is an extremely safe city to walk around in, during the day and night.

As with any city, petty crime and scamming does occur in Agadir. Keep a watchful eye on your valuables and possessions, especially at busy areas like marketplaces and bus stops. Take copies of important documents and do not carry large amounts of cash around in your wallet. If you are unfamiliar with the city streets do not walk them at night, rather catch a taxi cab. Tap water is not safe to drink, rather purchase bottled water. Required vaccines include vaccines for Hepatitis A and Typhoid. Speak to your GP about additional recommended vaccines for travelling to Morocco.

First-time visitors and visitors keen to be near the beach should stay in the popular tourist sector of Agadir, appropriately named Secteur Touristique. This bustling and modern area is lined with olive and palm trees and filled with restaurants serving local Moroccan cuisine. Hotels, bed-and-breakfasts and self-catering accommodation are on offer, with most facilities being within walking distance to the beach.

The simplest and most affordable option for getting around Agadir is by bus. Bus routes are mapped all over the town and are safe and comfortable (although they can get a little crowded during rush hour traffic). Taxis taking passengers around town are known as Petit Taxis and usually run on a meter. If you are looking to travel somewhere out of the city you will have to take a Grand Taxi, which is a larger vehicle that usually carries about six passengers including you (you can hire the entire taxi for a larger fare, but be sure to negotiate the agreed price with your driver before entering the vehicle).
