Agadir Favorite Tips by Heavens-Mirror

~ Cash/ATM Machines ~

Favorite thing: There are many banks in Agadir and most hotels can change your money into Moroccan Dirhams for you. The exchange rate is a set rate done daily by the government too so no need to shop around for the best rates. The maximum amount you can withdraw from a cash machine is 4,000 dirham. That's about 400 euro, more than the monthly salary for the average Moroccan.

Most machines accept Debit cards but if you come across one which doesnt work just move onto the next machine and then remember the name of that particular one. Credit cards are not widely accepted for payments, although you can use them at travel agents and many upmarket hotels, restaurants and shops.

You can also change travellers cheques at most banks which you can use Euros, US Dollars and Sterling cheques but they do charge commission.
