Aglou is in Anti Atlas, about 10 minutes west of Tiznit.

Understand

[edit]

Aglou was initially a fishing village but is being developed as a tourist destination. The beach is a few km and bus stops away, and called "Aglou Plage". The beach is a favorite getaway place for people from Tiznit to escape its sometimes insane heat since a public bus goes there.

When people talk about "Aglou", they usually refer to "Aglou Plage", since "Aglou Village" itself does not offer much.

Get in

[edit]

By public bus from Tiznit or with CTM on the route from Agadir to Sidi Ifni - it's not an official stop so you will have to ask the bus driver to drop you of.

Get around

[edit]

All of Aglou Plage can be walked within 15 minutes.

See

[edit]
  • the beach
  • the formerly inhabited caves at the sea (you can still rent some for a night - though they are very basic).

Do

[edit]
  • Fishing
  • Hanging out at the beach
  • Paragliding
  • Go on an excursion with a quad (from Aglou Village, directly on the main road towards Aglou Plage)
  • Visit the water park with huge water slides (April to October)

Eat

[edit]

There are a few restaurants at the beach and one at the entrance of the village.

Sleep

[edit]

Several small hotels are available, most houses are available for short term rentals and locals also rent out apartments - ask in cafes or restaurants for the latter two.

There is also a pretty large camping ground at the entrance of the village.
