Agadir: Coastal Boat Trip with Lunch & Fishing, Hotel Pickup

Summary

Half-day sailing along Agadir’s coast with fishing, swim, local lunch

You’ll sail Agadir’s wild Atlantic coast with a small group, try your hand at fishing (or just watch), jump into clear blue water for a swim, then dig into fresh Moroccan fish barbecue with salad on deck. Includes pickup from your hotel so you don’t have to worry about logistics — just bring your curiosity and let someone else handle the rest.

What’s the experience like?

We stepped onto the boat at Agadir marina just after being picked up — honestly, I was still waking up and squinting at the sunlight bouncing off the water. Our captain (I think he said his name was Youssef?) welcomed everyone with this big grin and handed out strong, sweet tea that tasted almost smoky. The city faded behind us fast. There was this salty breeze and the constant creak of wood underfoot as we started gliding along the coast. I kept trying to spot where the city ended and those sandy cliffs began but everything sort of melted together in that morning haze.

After maybe an hour of drifting — or less, I lost track — we stopped and Youssef pulled out some fishing rods. I’m not really a fishing person but tried anyway, mostly for the laugh. The little kid next to me caught something right away and his dad cheered so loud it made everyone look over. I didn’t catch anything except a tangle in my line (Youssef helped me fix it without making me feel dumb). The water was so clear you could see shadows darting below, and there was this wild smell of salt and grilled fish mixing in the air as the crew started prepping lunch.

Swimming came next — they anchored near this quiet patch where the Atlantic felt colder than expected but worth it once you got used to it. A few of us jumped straight in; others hung back sipping coffee on deck. The sun felt sharp on my shoulders when I climbed out, but honestly, that first bite of barbecued fish made me forget about everything else for a bit. They served it with this crunchy salad, all lemony and fresh — way better than anything I’d expected from a boat kitchen.

We headed back toward Agadir after lunch, everyone stretched out on deck or chatting quietly. There was this peaceful lull, just sea and sky and a couple seagulls trailing behind us hoping for scraps. Dropped off back at my hotel by mid-afternoon — hair salty, skin warm, still thinking about how simple it all felt. Sometimes the best part is just letting someone else steer for a while.
