Hi, i have been browsing these forums for the past few days and thought now is the time to register and ask for help.
Me and my family have decided to go on our first ever family holiday to morocco(agadir),we have 3 little ones 4,5 and 6.
I just wanted some advice on where to begin,should we visit a travel agents or book online e.g expedia.
When should we go,(we can only go in school holidays)heat wise?
Is agadir suitable for young children?
Any experiances of a good hotel that anyone could reccomend?We would prefer b and b or half board.
What is the local food like and are the restaurants and cafes within walking distance of the hotels or is it quite far?
Sorry for all the questions,I just want everything to be perfect for the childern.
Any help would be hugely appreciated!!!!!!
Kind regards
Sal
I am sure our members will give you lots of advice, but I can't really help with Agadir as I only went to inland Morocco on my visit a year or so ago.
The Moroccan Tourist Office has a good website for generalities such as weather temperatures; remember that Agadir is on the Atlantic Ocean and can be quite breezy, which although makes you cooler, doesn't stop you from burning!!
You may find that sites like Trip Advisor can help you with visitors' comments about individual hotels and b&bs, and a proper travel agent will have the Travel Agents Gazetteer behind the counter that you can ask to have a look at - no holds barred comments from the professionals about each hotel.
Please be aware however, that Agadir is in a muslim country which means that you may have to cover up in public more than you would in say Benidorm, and if you are a light sleeper, you might face rude awakenings early in the mornings as the muezzin calls the faithful to prayer via an amplifier!
Getting dark happens relatively quickly - there is no long twilight that far south like there is up here - and you may find street lighting somewhat haphazard!!
But you should have a wonderful time, and I do hope that you get lots of helpful info very soon.
Many thanks!
I don't know if you see this post http://www.holidaytruths.co.uk/viewtopic.php?f=68&t=60073 but there is lots of info here, you can access hotel reviews for Morocco etc. It might help you whilst members reply to you here.
A friend of ours stopped at the rui tikadi dunes in the summer (August) and loved this hotel. So take yah pick.
Moroccan people are very friendly and i could not fault them at all....
Hope this helps

Hi,curlylocksm thanks for the advice.How far were you from the beach and restaurants/cafes?
Weather was very good, windy though, it was cold on a night but it was December. The temperature during the day was about 25- 27 oc but one day it hit 30oc... it was lovely.
Hope this helps...
