Agadir is Morocco's sunniest golf base, a beach resort city on the Atlantic where mild winters and a tight cluster of quality courses, from the Kyle Phillips clifftop at Tazegzout to royal parkland and eucalyptus fairways, make for an easy warm weather trip. Here are the five we rate most highly, ranked, with our verdict on each and how to play it.

Agadir is the most reliable winter sun golf in Morocco, blessed with long, dry, mild days through the months when much of Europe is unplayable, and a compact set of courses spread between the coast and the foothills of the Atlas. The headline addition is Tazegzout, a Kyle Phillips clifftop course a short drive north of the city that lifted the region into a different class. Closer in sit the established resort courses, the eucalyptus and water of Les Dunes and Le Soleil, the royal parkland of the Palais Royal and the original layout at Golf de l'Ocean, several of them 27 hole complexes that flex easily into different rounds.
We weighed design quality, conditioning, variety and how naturally the courses combine into one relaxed golf and beach week, which is how Agadir is best played. Everything here is resort or pay and play golf welcoming visitors with advance booking. Every fact, from designers to layouts, was checked at the time of writing, and where a design credit is shared or uncertain we say so rather than guess. The order and the verdicts are our editors' view, so reasonable people will reorder the list. If you want any of these built into a costed winter trip, that is exactly what our concierge does.
The standout course of the region and one of the best in Morocco, a Kyle Phillips design a short drive north of Agadir near Taghazout where fairways weave through coastal scrub and argan trees before opening to panoramic Atlantic views. Bold, modern and beautifully routed across rolling clifftop ground, attached to a Fairmont resort, it is the reason serious golfers now put Agadir on the map and the must play of any trip here.
The most exclusive parkland in the city, the royal course credited to Robert Trent Jones Sr. with much of the on site work led by his lead designer Cabell Robinson. Immaculately kept, lush and quietly grand, it is a refined, beautifully conditioned test that feels a world apart from the busier resort courses, and a round here is one of the more prestigious experiences on the Moroccan coast for golfers who can arrange access.
A polished 27 hole complex by Cabell Robinson on the coast south of the city, three nines defined by mature eucalyptus, numerous lakes and the Atlas Mountains rising behind. Well conditioned and varied, with the loops combining into different eighteens, it is one of the most dependable and enjoyable resort rounds in Agadir and a natural anchor for a golf and beach base on this stretch of coast.
A classic Moroccan resort course with 27 holes laid among flowers, lakes and eucalyptus between the coast and the Atlas Mountains, the kind of relaxed, colourful parkland that makes an Agadir golf week feel like a holiday. The flexible three nine routing suits groups of mixed ability, and the easy, sunny setting close to the resorts makes it a popular and good value round on any city based itinerary.
A 27 hole complex designed by Belt Collins on the southern edge of Agadir, divided into three nines and a regular host of national professional and amateur events. More open and undulating than its neighbours, with water in play and views toward the sea, it adds welcome variety to the local circuit and rounds out a city base that can comfortably fill a week of golf without a single long transfer.

Tell us whether you want the Kyle Phillips clifftop at Tazegzout, a relaxed mix of the resort courses, or a wider Moroccan tour, and roughly when. One concierge arranges the tee times and hotel and costs the trip to the head, with no obligation.
Tazegzout Golf, the Kyle Phillips design on the clifftops north of the city near Taghazout, is the best course in the Agadir region and one of the finest in Morocco, with the royal parkland of the Palais Royal and the eucalyptus complex at Les Dunes its closest rivals. Reasonable people reorder the rest, but Tazegzout leads any serious list.
Agadir is a winter sun destination, so the prime season runs from roughly October to April, when the Atlantic coast is warm, dry and mild while northern Europe is closed for the season. Midsummer is hotter but tempered by the sea breeze. Most visiting golfers travel between autumn and spring for the most comfortable conditions. Always confirm conditions before booking.
The Agadir area has five main courses, several of them 27 hole complexes, which gives plenty of variety for a week of golf within short transfers of the city: the clifftop Tazegzout to the north, and Les Dunes, Le Soleil, Golf de l'Ocean and the royal Palais Royal in and around the resort. That compactness is a big part of the city's appeal as a golf base.
Yes. The resort and complex courses, Tazegzout, Les Dunes, Le Soleil and Golf de l'Ocean, are geared to visiting golfers and welcome advance bookings, often with a caddie. The royal Palais Royal course is more exclusive and access there is arranged rather than simply booked. Always confirm access and green fees directly before booking.
