Agadir Airport to Essaouira Airport, the comfortable way.
What does the trip from Agadir Airport to Essaouira Airport actually involve? 150 km, around 1h55 of driving by way of Taghazout and Imsouane, and a change of scene from the Souss coast to the Atlantic coast.
Who makes the Agadir Airport to Essaouira Airport trip
Almost everyone booking this leg has just landed at Agadir Airport. Many AGA arrivals are not staying in Agadir at all — they are heading north to the surf villages, south to Tiznit and Mirleft, or even up to Marrakech. Essaouira Airport is the destination because you have one of the few direct flights out of ESU and want to reach the terminal without relying on the town's limited taxis.
The road from Agadir Airport to Essaouira Airport
Al Massira Airport lies inland at Temsia, about 25 km south-east of the Agadir seafront via the N10. North of Agadir the N1 runs along the ocean through Anza and Aourir — the 'Banana Village' roadside stalls — before the first surf villages appear. 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
Flights are seasonal; winter schedules are thin, so double-check your flight day before booking the car. From Essaouira Airport, from Mogador it is as quick to reach Sidi Kaouki as the Essaouira medina. The return leg, Essaouira Airport to Agadir Airport, has its own page and the same per-vehicle pricing.
Private car, coach, grand taxi or train?
The fastest way from Agadir Airport to Essaouira Airport is a private transfer: about 1 h 60 door to door for a fixed €96 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.
| Option | Typical price | Journey time | Door to door | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Private transfer (Bacharide) | from €96 per vehicle | 1 h 60 | Yes | Fixed fare for the whole car, hotel-door pickup, luggage and child seats included, flight tracked. |
| CTM / Supratours coach | ~€10 per person | 3 h | No | Cheapest option, but fixed departure times, station-to-station, and luggage is charged by the bag. |
| Shared grand taxi | ~€15 per seat | 2 h 15 | No | Leaves only when six seats are sold. No seatbelts in the rear, no boot space for large cases. |
| Self-drive hire car | ~€50 per day + fuel | 2 h | 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.
