Agadir's urban design and coastal setting make it an excellent city for tourists who prefer to explore on foot. It's known for its broad avenues, modern architecture, and a grid-like city layout, all of which contribute to its walkability. The city was almost entirely rebuilt following a devastating earthquake in 1960, adopting a more contemporary design than is typical for Moroccan cities. This makes Agadir uniquely accessible for pedestrians, with wide sidewalks and a flat terrain.

One of the most enjoyable walking experiences in Agadir is strolling along its expansive seafront promenade, which stretches for about two-and-a-half miles along the beach. This promenade is lined with cafés and shops, offering both locals and tourists a scenic and relaxed walking route. The marina area also provides a pleasant walking environment, with well-maintained pathways and views of yachts and the ocean.

Petits taxis are also used as a form of transport, as they are in many cities throughout Morocco. Fares within the city center are almost always assured to cost below 100 dh ($10). You can differentiate the petits taxis by the grands taxis by their color; petits taxis in Agadir are painted orange.

Agadir offers a variety of bicycling opportunities for tourists. The city features guided bicycle tours, which are an excellent way for visitors to experience the local culture, see hidden gems, and enjoy the beautiful landscapes at a leisurely pace. These tours often include stops at popular spots where tourists can indulge in local pastries and drinks. One of the companies, Bybike (www.bybike.ma), provides various bicycles suitable for different terrains and preferences, ensuring that both casual and serious cyclists can find something appropriate for their needs. Additionally, the availability of bike rentals and guided tours encourages tourists to engage more actively with the environment and the community, supporting sustainable tourism practices in Agadir.

The ALSA buses in Agadir, apart from the Airport Express, are primarily used by locals, but you'll find that the L26 bus from the main hub in Place Inezgane, southeast of the city center, will go to the city center, passing the Souk El Had and areas close to the waterfront. Tickets can be bought via the ALSA app or on-board, and from there you can buy tickets for the public transport that's a favorite choice for tourists: the "petit train," or tourist train. Designed like a charming choo-choo, the battery-powered train travels in a 40-minute loop around the waterfront and the medina area and tickets cost approximately 50 dh for the entire loop per adult; children's tickets are discounted. You pay in cash to the attendant when you board the train. Petits taxis are also used as a form of transport, with fares within the city center almost always assured to cost below 100 dh ($10).

As for the Airport Express, the bus that travels between the airport and Wilaya (just west of the center of Agadir), that journey can be booked for 50 dh (about $5) one-way or 80 dh (about $8) roundtrip by going to www.alsa.ma/en/airport-shuttle. Tickets can be purchased at kiosks in the arrivals hall, at boarding times, and through the ALSA app, but only dirhams are accepted when boarding.
