Beachfront city a few hours from the UK where its currently 27C – and has some of the cheapest all-inclusive resorts --[Reported by Umva mag]

IF you’re after a last-minute blast of heat without having to shell out thousands of pounds, there is a city near the UK that ticks both boxes. Morocco’s Agadir is hitting 27C this week – and it was named one of the cheapest places for all-inclusive breaks.

We found a number of seven-night, all-inclusive breaks for less than £300 each, even when staying at a four star resort. Agadir, the largest seaside resort in Morocco, has as many as 300 days of sunshine. According to Morocco Tourism, Agadir is “one of the pearls of Morocco” thanks to its great climate, beaches and attractions. It’s popular with surfers due to the huge waves across the eight mile beach, lined with golden sand and loungers you can rent. Despite being ‘founded’ by the Portuguese in the 1500s, the entire city was destroyed by an earthquake in the 1960s, so has since been rebuilt. While this means you can expect more of a European-feel to the city, that doesn’t mean you can’t experience the Moroccan lifestyle. Local experiences that tourists should try are hammans, Moroccan spas, as well as a visit to the markets. One of the largest is Souk El Had which has more than 6,000 stalls with homewares and food. And the standout attraction is the towering Mohamed V Mosque, a modern addition to the city after the rebuild. Want something more adventurous? You can book desert tours and quad bike safari trips in Agadir too. Flights from the UK are just under four hours, with Ryanair and easyJet offering fares from £14.99, flying from a number of airports. And Jet2 has now launched flights from both Leeds and Bristol to Agadir this month. But if you want an all-inclusive break, one of the best value is with Loveholidays, staying at the three -star Caribbean Village Agador – costing £299 when all-inclusive.
