Our Girls Surf Maroc package provides a comprehensive surf coaching program according to your level. For beginners, learn the basics of surfing alongside ocean and tide theory; for improving surfers practice your manoeuvres or perfect your style. Surf lessons are for two hour per day and free surf time in the afternoon. The aim of this program is to take your surfing to the next level as quickly as possible with our hands on surf coaching. All of our Surf Guides have invaluable knowledge of the Moroccan coastline and are proper locals – they know exactly what surf breaks are working and when. To get you around we have a fleet of vans and 4×4′ s equipped with FCS auto accessories, and medical kits.
In and around Taghazout we have a multi aspect coastline, which provides a range of different surf spots that work for any given tide or swell – we have waves for all surfing abilities for beginners to pros.
To ensure you get to surf waves suited to your ability we implement a surf levels system. This helps us pair you with a surf group seeking the same type of waves.
Our team of professional surf guides and system of levels sets us apart from other surf camps in Morocco.
Our Girls Surf Maroc package focuses on beginner/improver levels. If you feel you are more advanced than the levels described, please let us know when making your enquiry and we’ll be able to make arrangements for you.
Our level one coaching program is about teaching you the basics. We’ll start on the beach and then move to waist deep water working on board handling and safety, reading ocean conditions, paddling, and catching broken waves in the prone position. You’ll be up and riding in no time!
Level two surfers have surfed before, know the basics and are practising getting up in the white water. The focus is to increase your confidence in the waves in order to progress you to an efficient stance and increase your wave count. Key points will be paddling into waves and catching waves un-assisted, accelerating your board and the all-important pop up.
At level three you are outback, catching green waves, standing up and turning.
At this level we focus on solidifying your level one and two learnings with a view to progressing you beyond the white water. You’ll learn about the paddle out and the required techniques to make it easier, board control, quicker take offs, weight distribution. We’ll also introduce you to wave selection theory and catching and riding green waves.
We have experienced in-house yoga teachers, who offer inspiring, uplifting, and fun yoga classes for all abilities. Yoga goes hand in hand with surfing in our opinion and it’s an important part of the Surf Maroc ethos; we take it seriously and operate one of the best yoga retreat centres in Morocco.
Our fantastic teachers expertly blend Core Power Yoga, creative Vinyasa Flow, Anusara, Hatha, Restorative and Yin Yoga. We run 2 open yoga classes every day at Amouage from 7–8 am, 6-7pm as well as workshops and community class (days may vary).
There will be of course plenty of time to chill out at the beach, soak up some sun and explore this beautiful area of Morocco.
During your stay and included in the week’s program, there will be lots of opportunities to indulge at the Amouage Hammam & Spa massages, go horse riding, shopping in the souks, or just chill at your accommodation.
Girls Surf Maroc package is available at Taghazout Villa only.
We prefer to create a great group vibe by everyone doing a full week together.
All of your coaching and surfing will be with the girls on the all-girls week. The accommodation (not the bedrooms, with the exception of the dorm), yoga, and dining are mixed with other guests.
*under 3 participants, we reserve the right to integrate you into a mix-gender surf coaching group of the identical level
Morocco is a liberal Muslim country, and men and women are welcome to wear shorts and t-shirts. Swimming costumes and bikinis are normal on the beach but it is advisable to cover up your arms and legs a bit when walking around town. Shorts, tees and flip flops are the norm. Trousers and jumpers are sometimes needed in the evenings all year round. In winter (Dec-Feb) evenings can be chilly so some warm clothes are a good idea during that period.
Surf Maroc is located in the Agadir region of southern Morocco. Taghazout is a unique gem on Morocco’s Atlantic coast. Conveniently located 40 min from Agadir international airport it’s a short hop ( 2-4 hrs) from most central European cities.

Morocco is an all-year-round destination for great surf and great weather. That’s why Surf Maroc is open all year!
The summer months (May– September) see small to medium swells with surf mostly on the beaches and reefs on the more exposed northwest coast. This is a great time for anyone looking for fun. There are some bigger days during this time for those looking for something more challenging.
During the winter months the waves, that have made Morocco famous, come to life. There is a huge variety of surf in this area of Morocco. There are not many places like it in the world. The region has something for everyone, from ideal beginner waves to challenging reef ledges. Intermediates and those new to the sport should not be put off or worried. Due to the nature of the coastline, there is almost always somewhere sheltered and manageable, and those looking for something challenging won’t be disappointed.
Morocco is blessed with well over 300 days of sunshine a year. Between the months of November to February, there is a small chance of rain, although statistically, it is unlikely.
.
With such a large range and choice of waves, you may want to bring a whole quiver of boards.
To generalize, the majority of waves are right-hand point breaks from soft, slow, rolling spots to heavy, fast barrelling spots. Bring equipment to suit your ability and what you want to surf. If you don’t want to go big, your everyday board will suffice, there’s nearly always somewhere sheltered. If you do want to charge the big stuff, bring something suitable for mid-winter waves that can get up to 15ft.
At the Surf Maroc surf shop, you will be able to hire standard and premium boards – check our selection here
