IRONMAN Agadir
IRONMAN 70.3 Agadir on 25 October 2026 starts in the Atlantic off the bay: 1.9 km swim, 90 km on a hilly bike course inland, and a flat 21.1 km on the promenade.
Calling the bike hilly is the honest part of this race description. Behind Agadir the road climbs into the foothills of the Anti-Atlas, and there is enough sustained gradient across the 90 km that gearing matters. If your bike is set up for flat European halves, change it before you pack it.
The Atlantic here is cooler than the latitude suggests, because of the current running down the African coast. A wetsuit swim in Morocco in late October is normal, and people are regularly surprised by it.
Agadir has a large airport and package-holiday infrastructure, which makes it cheap and easy to reach out of season. The promenade run is flat and completely exposed, and by late morning the sun on it is stronger than the air temperature suggests.
