Agadir is the most relaxed host city at the 2030 World Cup. Morocco's beach capital, rebuilt after the 1960 earthquake as a modern resort city, offers sun, sea and surf alongside World Cup football at the Adrar Stadium. If you want to combine a match with a holiday, there is no better choice in the whole tournament.

The stadium holds around 46,000 fans after renovation and sits a short drive from the city centre. Agadir's appeal is simple: warm weather, a long sandy beach, good seafood and a pace of life that makes it the perfect place to recover between matches.

The Adrar Stadium opened in 2013 and has hosted Africa Cup of Nations matches and internationals for the Moroccan national team. For the World Cup it is being upgraded to around 46,000 seats, with improved facilities for fans and media. The stadium is modern, comfortable and easy to reach by taxi or bus from the beachfront.

Agadir's food scene is built on the Atlantic: grilled sardines, fried calamari and fish tagines are served everywhere, often for a fraction of what the same meal costs in Europe. The city's souk, Souk El Had, is one of the largest markets in Morocco, with hundreds of stalls selling spices, argan oil, leather goods and fresh produce. It is open every day except Monday, and it is the best place to experience local life beyond the beachfront hotels. Arrive hungry, haggle politely, and leave with more than you planned to buy.
