Trying to reach Sidi Ifni? This step-by-step transport guide explains how to get there from Agadir, Tiznit, or Mirleft – plus tips on costs and travel times.
Sidi Ifni is one of Morocco’s southern surf village gems, situated down in the coastal region of Guelmim-Oued Noun. Sidi Ifni is a 3-hour drive south of Agadir, and most easily accessed by car. But in the name of equity for travellers of all persuasions, this guide covers all the public transport options for how to get to Sidi Ifni.

Moroccan Travel Essentials
- First and foremost, get travel insurance with SafetyWing. They’re super affordable and one of the few companies that let you buy insurance mid-trip.
- Book the dreamiest Moroccan abode on Booking.com. They’re my go-to for accomodation because you can save loooaads with their loyalty discounts.
- Or if you’re after the one-stop-shop, BookSurfCamps is the best place to find surf camp packages in Morocco.
- Find the best local tours with GetYourGuide. It’s the easiest way to visit places like Paradise Valley or Timlalin Dunes.
- Make sure you’re connected as soon as you get off the plane with Airalo’s Moroccan eSIM.
- Set up a Wise travel card to save on international transaction fees.
- And if you’re working online (or want to watch Netflix in your downtime) I highly recommend getting set up with a SurfShark VPN.
And you’re sorted.
Which Airport is Closest to Sidi Ifni?
Technically, the closest airport to Sidi Ifni belongs to the city of Guelmim – an hour’s drive southeast. However, flights into Guelmim are incredibly limited, departing from Casablanca, Tan Tan, and every so often, the Canary Islands.
The best airport to fly to reach Sidi Ifini is Agadir Al-Massira. Over a dozen countries in Europe and the United Kingdom fly directly into Agadir each day. Browse Booking.com to find the ideal flight path for your itinerary.
How to Get to Sidi Ifni From Agadir
Sidi Ifni is 172km south of Agadir. The easiest option is to hire a car in Agadir and drive down the coast yourself. You can browse the cars available on RentalCars.com and book in advance.
If driving’s not your modus operandi, you can catch a CTM bus, or opt for a private or collective taxi.
Note that the Agadir airport is located 25km from the city centre. If you choose not to catch a taxi directly from the airport to Sidi Ifni, you will first need to take the airport bus or a taxi to Agadir. I have explained all options in detail in this post.
Bus From Agadir to Sidi Ifni
There are two main bus companies in Morocco: CTM and Supratours. Both are super affordable and reliable, and can easily be booked online. However, Supratours does not offer a direct route from Agadir to Sidi Ifni, so CTM is the winner here.
Buses to Sidi Ifni depart from Agadir’s main bus station, listed as ‘CTM Agadir‘ on Google Maps. There are two buses from Agadir to Sidi Ifni each day.

The bus will arrive in the centre of Sidi Ifni, ‘CTM Sidi Ifni‘ on Google Maps. Most accommodations are within reasonable walking distance. If not, you can catch a local taxi.
Taxi From Agadir to Sidi Ifni
You can catch a taxi directly from Agadir airport to Sidi Ifni. The taxi rank is located outside the arrivals hall, and all taxis follow a set fare guide. A taxi from the airport to Sidi Ifni will cost 800dh (€80), plus an additional 20dh (€2) for each piece of luggage. This price is for the entire car (not per person).

Alternatively, from the centre of Agadir you can head to ‘Gare de Grand Taxis‘ (Grand taxi station) and organise a Grand taxi from there. The taxi rank is located in Inezgane, south of the city and is known to be rather chaotic.
You will need to barter a little with the taxi drivers, but expect to pay around 500dh (€50) for a taxi to Sidi Ifni.
