Agadir Bay Half-Day: Fishing, Open-Sea Swim and Barbecue Boat Trip
Spend a relaxed half-day on the Atlantic off Agadir: introductory fishing, an open-sea swim for the brave, and a chef-prepared barbecue on board. Practical for families and first-time anglers, this trip pairs hands-on activity with coastal scenery.
The Experience
Before You Go
Bring motion-sickness remedies
The Atlantic can be choppy; if you’re prone to seasickness, take medication before boarding and sit midship where motion is least felt.
Wear non-slip shoes
Decks get wet during fishing and boarding — closed, grippy footwear reduces slips and protects toes from gear.
Protect skin with reef-safe sunscreen
Strong sun and reflected light off the water increase UV exposure — use reef-safe SPF to protect skin and marine life.
Secure a dry bag for valuables
Bring a small dry bag or zip-lock for phone, wallet and documents to keep them safe from spray and splashes.

Conservation Note
Operators are encouraged to follow catch-and-release for small or juvenile fish and to minimize single-use plastics; using reef-safe sunscreen helps protect local marine ecosystems.
Agadir developed as a fishing and trading port with maritime links going back centuries; the modern city was reshaped after the 1960 earthquake that changed the shoreline community.
