Sport Services
The Taghazout area is one of the best places you can find to learn surfing, because it hosts many spots that are sheltered from big swells, thus delivering small and easy waves to progress in total safety without dangerous rips.
As a beginner or intermediate level surfer, you will be guided every day to the best and safest spot for your ability. Our accredited surf instructors will guide you through each step of the learning process to optimise your learning curve.
Specially designed for beginners and intermediate levels, our surf teaching programme will focus on teaching you the art of surfing a wave safely and in a fun way, taking your level and your experience with the ocean into account.
We will do our best to give you one obsession after your trip : coming back !

Best Period
Perfectly exposed for a N/W swell coming down, generated by depressions from Northern Atlantic, the Moroccan coast gets all kind of waves. Thanks to the wind protection in some rocky beachbreak spots, conditions can turn out fantastic in winter with 1 to 3.50m waves.
From May to September, conditions are more hazardous and less regular but you can have some very good sessions.

Spots
Our location is quite unique for the surf spots around accessible in less than 5 minutes walk, mainly Banana Point, but not only. Banana Point is a classic spot offering a combination of advantages that few other spots have: a friendly atmosphere in the water, a perfect shool wave that is long, forgiving and easy to ride, and, when it gets big, one of the best point break in the area.
Because riding a solid Banana Point is an unforgettable memory and requires good surfing skills. We also have two other spots on the same beach: Douze and Onze.
Douze is a nice lefthander with a steep take-off that gets quite mellow afterwards. It also offers a righthander which can get really good.
Onze offers quite the same set-up, but with an even steeper take-off, for more experienced surfers, and can deliver amazing rides. All these spots are immediately accessible within a very short walk.
The lucky ones choosing the surf guiding package will be guided to the best working spots in the North Agadir area: Anchor Point, Killer Point, Mysteries, Boiler’s, etc…

Surf Story
The first trip ! With a Renault 4L, a bicolour Super 5, a Nevada break, a Peugeot courier or an old VW Euro van…The road is going to be long, heading due South.
Worry, anxious, sick of winter, dreaming about waves unrolling near Safi, la pointe des Ancres, la Banane, Bouilloires or more down South at the entrance of the desert…
If you want to learn more about surfing, you need to stop there. This is the ideal excursion from October to May to get ready before the season on the French coasts.
History
In the Western minds, Morocco embodies all the Eastern seductions. A myth that is still establishing itself: Marrakech, Rabat’s mosques, Fes’ medina, an adventure from the Atlas Mountains to the desert’s immensity…
You definitely have to understand the romantic fascination that Morocco has exerted on the Western artists.
Imperial cities, Berber Kasbahs, sumptuous mosques…the former French protectorate knows how to take the various faces of an Eastern charmer.
Its gastronomy reveals new tastes in every meal; its snowy summits and its canyons seduce those who are insensitive to the vastness of the desert’s charm. Its coastal towns are resting-places after the visit of the medinas, its cities take turn with the red-ochre ramparts and the doors slightly carved and gilded.
Geography
Morocco is a country bordering both seas: the Atlantic Ocean and the Mediterranean Sea.
In the Centre, the Rif and Atlas Mountain chains that block the scenery. From this diversity of grounds was born a great variety of Moroccan landscapes which are among the most beautiful of the world.
The Atlantic coast is spreading out 2 800 km wide, whereas the Mediterranean coast only has 530 km of coast. It is bordered of plains (Sebou, Mesema and Sous) which are the most populated and rich regions of the country.
Beautiful beaches, harbours, and large centres like Casablanca, Safi and Rabat are following one another.
