Taghazout to Essaouira Airport, the comfortable way.


Plan on about 1h30 for the 120 km between Taghazout and Essaouira Airport, following the N1 cliff road and finally the N1 through argan country. Taghazout is a former fishing village 20 km north of Agadir that has become Morocco's surf capital, with point breaks like Anchor Point and Killer Point and a newer resort development, Taghazout Bay, just south of it.
Who makes the Taghazout to Essaouira Airport trip
This is usually a departure-day run, and Essaouira Airport is where the flight home leaves from. Departures from Taghazout are typically the end of a surf week, or a move to quieter breaks once the village fills up. ESU is small enough that 90 minutes before an international departure is usually comfortable, but check-in desks open late, so there is little point arriving earlier. With 1h30 on the road, we work the pickup time back from your flight so you are not sitting in the terminal for hours — tell us the flight number and we set the time.
The road from Taghazout to Essaouira Airport
Beyond Taghazout the N1 climbs above the cliffs past the Cap Ghir lighthouse and the banana plantations of Tamri, with the Atlantic below on the left. North of Imsouane the road turns inland through rolling argan hills around Tamanar and Smimou, where women's cooperatives sell argan oil at the roadside, then rejoins the coast at Essaouira. The final stretch: mogador Airport is 17 km south-east of the town, just off the road towards Agadir. Good places to break the drive: the Cap Ghir lighthouse viewpoint, Tamri's banana plantations and an argan oil cooperative near Tamanar.
Arriving in Essaouira Airport
Essaouira Mogador (ESU) is a small single-terminal airport with a handful of seasonal European routes, which makes it quick to get through but thin on ground transport. ESU is small enough that 90 minutes before an international departure is usually comfortable, but check-in desks open late, so there is little point arriving earlier.
Before you go
A final practical note on Essaouira Airport: flights are seasonal; winter schedules are thin, so double-check your flight day before booking the car. And when you are ready to move on, from Mogador it is as quick to reach Sidi Kaouki as the Essaouira medina. The return leg, Essaouira Airport to Taghazout, has its own page and the same per-vehicle pricing.
Privéauto, bus, grand taxi of trein?
The fastest way from Taghazout to Essaouira Airport is a private transfer: about 1 h 30 door to door for a fixed €82 for the whole vehicle. The coach is cheaper per person but adds a transfer at each end and roughly an hour of waiting; a shared grand taxi only leaves once six seats are sold.

|---|---|---|---|---|
| Private transfer (Bacharide) | from €82 per vehicle | 1 h 30 | Yes | Fixed fare for the whole car, hotel-door pickup, luggage and child seats included, flight tracked. |
| CTM / Supratours coach | ~€10 per person | 2 h 30 | No | Cheapest option, but fixed departure times, station-to-station, and luggage is charged by the bag. |

| Self-drive hire car | ~€45 per day + fuel | 1 h 30 | Yes | Flexible, but you handle the mountain passes, city parking and the deposit hold. |
Coach, grand taxi and rail figures are typical published fares and timings for Moroccan operators (CTM, Supratours, ONCF) and vary by season. Only the Bacharide fare is fixed and quoted at booking.
