Golf du Soleil is a 36 hole golf complex at Bensergao on the southern edge of Agadir, opened in 1999 and run by the Tikida hotel group. It holds two 18 hole courses: the Championship, rebuilt from the ground up and reopened in October 2019, and the shorter Tikida Course, which regulars nicknamed le petit jardin. Fairways run through eucalyptus and tamarisk woodland, with decorative lakes and fountains between the holes.
Warum hier spielen
Golf du Soleil in Agadir is the largest golf complex on the Souss coast, with 36 holes split across two separate 18 hole courses.
The Championship course was rebuilt from the ground up, with new turf, reconstructed greens, reworked tees, rebuilt lakes and a modern irrigation system, and reopened in October 2019.
The Tikida Course is the shorter and tighter of the two, cut through state eucalyptus and tamarisk forest, and rewards accuracy rather than distance.
Both layouts are flat, so walking a full round is realistic instead of exhausting.
A free 48 seat air conditioned shuttle serves the 14 main hotels on the Agadir beachfront, which makes the course easy to reach without a car.
Platzdetails
Two 18 hole courses share one clubhouse: the Championship and the Tikida Course.
Both date from 1999. The Tikida Course opened with nine holes and was extended to 18 in 2006.
The Tikida Course measures roughly 5,500 metres from the white tees, with narrow fairways and several holes dropping into natural hollows.
The Championship is the longer of the pair and hosts club competitions plus national and international tournaments.
Nine hole rounds are sold as well as full 18 hole rounds.
