What is SURF MAROC?
Surf Maroc was founded by Ben and Ollie in 2003 with 5 boards, a few old wetsuits, and even older Transit van.
With no grand scheme or master plan we have grown organically through demand and popularity. Shaped and nurtured by the desires and needs of ours guests and under the inspiration of those who work here. We’re obsessed with surf and yoga, but it’s the people who work with us and just as importantly, the people who stay with us, that create the special atmosphere that makes Surf Maroc what it is.
Today, Surf Maroc operates a collection of four epic oceanfront locations, each of which is conceived solely to provide surf and yoga holidays and run by a professional team of people who are passionate about hospitality. From making your booking to organising your airport transfer, from your surf lessons to your accommodation, there is someone making sure you are taken care of and having a good time.
If you stay with us expect amazing waves, delicious food, great weather (all year round), beautiful accommodation, good people, and good vibes. Our doors are open for everyone, weather you are a beginner or pro, singleton or family, guy or girl, young or old.
TAGHAZOUT
Internationally renowned amongst travellers, surfers, and yogis for its laid back pace and world-class waves, Taghazout is a unique gem on Morocco’s Atlantic coast. Located 40 min from Agadir international airport, it’s a short hop (only 2 to 3 hours) from most central European cities. It’s the closest place for any European surfer to get year round warm water, perfect waves, and a unique cultural experience.
YOGA
We have three 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 centers in Morocco. Our fantastic teachers expertly blend Core Power Yoga, creative Vinyasa Flow, Anasara, Hatha, Restorative and Yin Yoga. We run 2 open yoga classes every day at Amouage from 7 – 8am, 6-7pm as well as two workshops three times a week 4.30-5.30pm Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays (days may vary).
