Agadir has intensified efforts to ensure tourist safety, with a dedicated tourist police brigade patrolling the corniche 24 hours a day. The primary focus is on combating fake guides who harass visitors and demand inflated fees for unofficial services.
According to local authorities, the brigade conducts regular checks to identify unlicensed guides and prevent price gouging. The initiative aims to restore confidence among tourists, who have reported incidents of harassment and overcharging in popular areas.
As of June 2026, the measures have led to a noticeable decrease in complaints, though officials acknowledge the need for continued vigilance. The city is also exploring the use of surveillance cameras to further enhance security along the beachfront.
