Quad Biking & Sandboarding in Agadir: Beach to Desert

Ride the beach, then glide down dunes at your own speed

Quad biking and sandboarding in Agadir combines two separate adventures in one afternoon: a guided quad bike ride along the Atlantic coastline, then sandboarding on golden dunes in the desert interior. An air-conditioned vehicle moves you between locations, and a guide leads both activities in English or French. Refreshments and light snacks are included, and the experience suits all fitness levels, with children welcome from age 4.

Step-by-step itinerary

Quad biking, sandboarding, and camel ride

• Quad biking on the beach
• Sandboarding in the desert
• Camel ride on Sidi Toual beach

The Experience

The quad biking starts on Agadir's beach, where you ride along the shoreline and sandy trails with the ocean in view. The bikes handle small dunes and natural obstacles as you move at your own pace—beginners and experienced riders both find the terrain manageable. After the coastal section, you head inland to the desert, where the sandboarding begins on dunes of varying heights. You climb to the top, strap on a board, and descend at speed on soft sand, a motion closer to snowboarding than anything on water. The dunes let you choose your own rhythm, so steeper or gentler slopes are both available depending on what you want from the run.

Transport between the beach and the desert happens in an air-conditioned vehicle, and a guide in English or French leads both the quad biking and sandboarding sections. Refreshments and light snacks come during the day. The whole experience runs 4 to 5 hours. You can book a solo quad bike or a double (two riders sharing one bike), and one option adds a camel ride along Sidi Toual beach at the end—a slower, traditional way to see the coast after the speed of the morning.

What’s included

• Air-conditioned vehicle transport between the beach and desert.
• quad bike rental for the coastal ride.
• sandboard rental and guided instruction on the dunes.
• refreshments and light snacks during the afternoon.

Is this one for you?Choose the sunset solo or double quad bike option if you prefer riding in cooler evening light and want the desert dunes to glow as you sandboard. Add the camel ride if you're traveling with children under 8 or want to end the day with a traditional, slower-paced experience instead of more speed.

Top questions

What's the difference between the solo and double quad bike options?

The solo quad bike is a single rider on one machine; the double quad bike seats two people on the same bike. Both options include the same sandboarding and refreshments, so the choice is whether you ride alone or share the bike with a companion.

Can I do the quad biking and sandboarding if I've never ridden a quad bike before?

Yes. The experience is designed for all fitness levels and all riding abilities. The guide leads both activities and adjusts the pace to match the group, so beginners and experienced riders move together.

What happens during the sandboarding part?

You travel to desert dunes, climb to the top of a slope, strap on a sandboard, and ride down. The dunes vary in size and steepness, so you can choose runs that match your comfort level. It works like snowboarding but on soft sand instead of snow.

Is the camel ride option worth adding?

The camel ride is a separate add-on that takes place at Sidi Toual beach after the quad biking and sandboarding. It's a slower, more relaxed experience along the coast—good if you want a calm finish to the day or if you're traveling with younger children who might enjoy the traditional pace.

What's included in the price, and what do I need to bring?

The quad bike tour, sandboarding experience, air-conditioned vehicle transport, refreshments and light snacks, and a guide in English or French are all included. Bring sunscreen, sunglasses, and water; the operator provides the bikes, boards and any safety gear needed.

How old do children need to be to join?

Children are welcome from age 4. Younger children can ride as a passenger on a double quad bike with an adult, or sit out the sandboarding and join the camel ride option instead if that's available on your booking.
