Today, Agadir is a spectacular, modern city with a host of excellent hotels, wide avenues, gardens in bright bloom, a magnificent port and a first-rate airport - and above all, a splendid sparkling beach stretching for six kilometers, the air scented by pine, eucalyptus and tamarisk. Devastated by the fierce earthquake of 1960, Agadir was carefully reconstructed under the direction of the young King Hassan I. Today, the city stands with its former prominence and majesty restored, as a testament to the hope and toil of its people in the face of adversity.
From a cliff-road flanking the hill, the Old Kasbah, dating from the 16th century, overlooks the azure spread of the ocean, the verdant valleys of the Great Souss and the majestic slopes of the Anti-Atlas mountain range. Agadir is typically used as a summer vacation spot for many Germans and Scandinavian people.
