The Morocco National Tourist Office (MNTO) and Air Transat recently announced a historic new nonstop route connecting Montréal (YUL) to Agadir (AGA), launched on June 12. This marks the first-ever direct flight between Montréal and Agadir, as well as the first direct connection between North America and southern Morocco – where a hidden gem awaits travelers.
Described as one of the most beautiful bays in the world, Agadir sits along Morocco’s western Atlantic edge with a 10-kilometre beachfront, palm-lined promenades, and more than 300 days of sunshine annually. With its almost omnipresent sunshine, Agadir has earned a reputation as an exceptional holiday destination within the country. Styled more like a Mediterranean resort, Agadir is much different than how many travelers might conceptualize Morocco.
