Atlantic Coast Road: Agadir to Imsouane
North of Agadir the coastal road runs through the surf villages of Aourir, Tamraght and Taghazout, past Cap Ghir and the Tamri dunes, to the fishing village of Imsouane. The route follows cliffs and beaches with argan groves inland, and Imsouane's bay is known for one of the longest right-hand waves in Morocco.
