Fifteen minutes north of Agadir, Tazegzout sits at the heart of Taghazout Bay Resort with the Atlantic as a constant backdrop and Argan trees framing fairways that run alongside Taghazout Bay and its long sandy beach. This is a young course, but it's already building a strong reputation among golfers who want ocean views and a routing that makes the most of the cliffs and contours. It's a very 'holiday golf' feel, but with a proper coastal edge when the wind gets up.
I'll be honest, if you're the sort of golfer who takes too many photos on a golf course, you'll be busy here. Several holes offer direct sightlines to the bay below and the combination of natural terrain and smart bunkering gives the layout more bite than you might expect from a resort course. The wind is the main defence, especially on the more exposed coastal stretch, so it's a course where you need to pick targets and commit rather than just lash driver and hope.
There's room from the tee on plenty of holes, so you can hit driver, but you'll still need a plan into the greens where bunkers are set to catch the bail-out. Green speeds vary through the year, but they can feel nippy when the breeze is up, and that's when distance control becomes the difference between a good score and a frustrating one. If you struggle with club selection in wind or you're not confident shaping shots, you'll find this layout asks questions. For confident ball strikers who enjoy coastal golf with strategic bunkering and quick greens, it's a proper test without being punishing.
The wider Taghazout Bay development includes surf breaks, coastal trails and a relaxed village atmosphere, making this a solid choice for golfers who want a mix of quality golf and beach time without the formality of some of the older resorts further north. Fancy a round here? Include Tazegzout on your next Agadir golf holiday and we'll help you build a package around the tee times.
