Agadir Traditional
Moroccan Spa.

A traditional Moroccan hammam in Agadir follows a specific sequence that is quite different from a Western spa visit. You start in the hot room - a steam chamber tiled in zellige - where you sit for 10 to 15 minutes to open the pores. A hammam attendant then applies black soap (savon beldi) made from olives and leaves it to work before using a kessa mitt to exfoliate the skin; the process removes a surprising amount of dead skin and leaves the skin noticeably smooth. A rinse follows, then a ghassoul clay mask if included in your package. The whole circuit typically runs 45 to 75 minutes depending on the tier booked. Agadir's traditional hammams range from neighbourhood local ones to cleaner tourist-facing facilities; this listing sits in the mid-range, with basic changing rooms and separate sections for men and women. Swimwear is worn throughout in mixed or tourist-facing venues. Bring flip-flops and a small towel, though towels are usually provided. A massage add-on is common. This suits anyone who wants an authentic wellness experience at a far lower price than a resort spa - not a luxury hotel pampering session, but genuinely effective.
