Agadir Airport to Tamraght & Aourir

Tamraght and Aourir — the banana villages just short of Taghazout — sit about 42 km up the coast, roughly 45 minutes from the airport. Here's what the transfer costs, and how to land at a surf camp that has a pin but no street address.

Tamraght and Aourir are the surf coast's quieter pair — the villages you pass just before Taghazout, strung along the same coast road and sharing the same breaks. Aourir is the bigger of the two, known as "Banana Village" for the fruit stalls that line the road; Tamraght sits just beyond, a short walk from Banana Beach and Devil's Rock. They're about 42 km up the coast from the airport, 40 to 50 minutes through Agadir and Aourir.

Your options from the airport

No train, no useful bus — three road choices, and for the surf villages they don't all land you in the same place:

  • Pre-booked private transfer — a driver waits with your name, takes the pin for your camp and drops you at the door. From about €26, with board space if you ask.
  • Grand taxi from the rank — workable if you agree the fare first (roughly 250–350 MAD by day), but drivers can balk at unmarked camp addresses.
  • Rental car — handy if you'll chase breaks from Imsouane down to the city; less so for a fixed stay with lessons laid on.

The unmarked-address problem

This is the detail that trips up first-timers, just as it does in Taghazout. Camps and apartments in Tamraght and Aourir mostly don't have a street number — they go by a name and a location pin near Banana Beach or Devil's Rock. A driver who's been sent the pin in advance takes you straight there; a taxi flagged at the rank may circle the village, ask around, then give up or charge for the hassle. Save your accommodation's pin offline before you fly, and book a transfer where you pass the address at checkout.

Tamraght, Aourir or Taghazout?

These villages share Taghazout's waves but tend to be a little cheaper and a lot quieter, which is why so many returning surfers base themselves here instead. The transfer is marginally shorter, the breaks at Banana Beach and Devil's Rock are right there, and Taghazout itself is only a few minutes up the road for an evening out. If you're still deciding, compare the airport to Taghazout run, which is the same road a little further on.

Local tip Grab cash and a SIM in the arrivals hall before you leave. The villages run on cash — camp meals, the bakery, board rental — and a data connection lets you drop your camp's pin for the driver and check the surf report before you've left the airport.

Frequently asked questions

How do you get from Agadir airport to Tamraght or Aourir?
By road only — no train, no useful bus. You either pre-book a private transfer that takes you to the exact surf camp or apartment from a location pin, or negotiate a grand taxi at the airport rank. The drive is about 42 km up the coast, roughly 40 to 50 minutes through Agadir and Aourir.
How much is a transfer to Tamraght or Aourir?
A pre-booked private transfer starts around €26 for the car, fixed before you fly. A grand taxi from the rank runs roughly 250–350 MAD by day depending on bargaining; agree it before you load. Prices checked June 2026.
Where exactly are Tamraght and Aourir?
They sit on the coast road between Agadir and Taghazout. Aourir is the larger village — known as "Banana Village" for the roadside fruit stalls — and Tamraght is just beyond it, closer to the Devil's Rock and Banana Beach surf breaks. Both are a few minutes short of Taghazout.
Will a taxi find my surf camp address?
Often not on its own. Camps and apartments here rarely have a real street number — just a name and a pin near Banana Beach or Devil's Rock. A pre-booked driver who has the pin in advance takes you to the door; a rank taxi may drop you "in Tamraght" and leave you to find it. Save your accommodation's pin offline before you fly.
Is it cheaper to stay in Tamraght or Taghazout?
Tamraght and Aourir are usually a touch cheaper and quieter than Taghazout itself, while still being on the same surf breaks and an easy hop from the village. Many returning surfers prefer them for exactly that — the same waves, a calmer base, a slightly shorter transfer from the airport.

To the camp door, not the village

Send your camp or apartment pin and a driver takes you straight there — fixed price, board space on request, free cancellation on most bookings.
