Which London airport is best for Agadir?
It depends on the day. Gatwick usually has the most choice, with both low-cost and holiday airlines, while Stansted and Luton can be cheaper on some dates. Searching with the LON code compares them all at once, so you only need to factor in the cost of getting to the airport.
When is Agadir cheapest?
- Best value: January after New Year, late November and early December, and May.
- Peak prices: Christmas, New Year, February and October half-terms, Easter and the summer holidays.
Agadir is warmer than most of Europe in winter, with daytime highs often around 20 degrees, which is why fares from the UK rise in school holidays. Travelling just before or after a half-term week can save a lot.
Tips to pay less
- Compare flight only and package. In peak weeks a package with hotel and transfer can be cheaper. Outside holidays, flight only plus your own hotel usually wins.
- Check every day of the week. Some airlines fly only a few days a week, so prices vary a lot between days.
- Pack light if you are flying with a low-cost airline.
- Book early for half-term, ideally three to six months ahead.

Getting from the airport to the beach
Al Massira airport is south-east of the city, about 30 to 40 minutes by car to the seafront and Taghazout road. Grand taxis wait outside (agree the price first), many hotels offer transfers, or you can pre-book a private driver.
Do UK travellers need a visa?
British citizens can usually visit Morocco for up to 90 days without a visa. Check GOV.UK for the latest entry rules before you travel.
Book the rest of your Morocco trip
- Airport transfer: a pre-booked driver waits at arrivals, useful after a late landing because you don’t have to haggle with taxis.
- Morocco eSIM: mobile data from the moment you land, without queuing at a SIM shop.
- Tours and day trips: guided visits, desert trips, food tours and more.
- Travel insurance: cover for medical costs and trip cancellation.
