And with a team of experienced, local surf guides and surf instructors at hand, you can really get excited about a fun and surf-filled week in Morocco.

The surf camp itself is a 300m² modern Moroccan-style villa that stretches over 3 floors with a large, panoramic rooftop terrace, perfect for practicing Yoga, enjoying sunset drinks and our afternoon high teas and for sharing surfing stories.

Here in Morocco, our competent surf camp team makes sure you leave each surf session stoked and smiling. They have your perfect surf holiday adventure covered!

What to expect…

From a typical day in our Moroccan surf camp


A typical day in our surf camp here in Morocco will start off with a hearty breakfast with a variety of healthy options to fuel up for the day ahead. You will leave around 8.45 am in the morning for your surf lesson to ensure you hit the surf before anyone else.

Surf lessons kick off at 9.30 am and will last a couple of hours. It will start off with some surf theory and stretching on the beach followed by some fun in the surf.

After the lesson, it’s time for lunch! Ali has surely prepared a super healthy lunch, just enough to keep you going but not fill you up too much if you want to head out again for another surf in the afternoon.

If you feel like skipping an afternoon surf session, we can arrange for you to go on a trip to the famous rock pools of Paradise Valley, to go sand dune surfing or to the buzzing Souk of Agadir, all in a 25 km radius.

At around 4 pm, we usually return to the surf house, but we always remain flexible depending on surf conditions and our guests’ preferences on the day. However, you’ll probably be looking forward to the Moroccan tea waiting for you at the surf camp with nice Moroccan pastries after a day on the beach.

Around 5.30 pm we start our yoga lesson on the surf camp’s rooftop. Times can sometimes differ depending on daylight savings.

We usually gather on the rooftop after sunset and enjoy a nice cold beer or warm tea while we share all the day’s adventures. The three-course dinner is served around 8 pm.

Sleep, then repeat! Sounds good right?

Yoga and surfing have long gone hand in hand with many professional surfers using yoga to help improve their flexibility, core strength and surfing performance.

Our Yoga instructors make their sessions fun and accessible to ‘Yogis’ of all levels and the views from our rooftop are priceless, especially at sunset!

Surf Lesson Package

Learn to surf in Morocco’s best waves every day!


The waves here in Morocco are some of the longest in the world, most of which are point breaks that break over sand. Long waves are especially good when learning to surf or wanting to improve your surfing. They make balancing and getting a feel for your surfboard easy and are also great for learning to turn your surfboard. And when waves break over sand, you also don’t have to worry too much about wiping out as you won’t crash onto corals or rocks. 

Star Surf Camps are renowned for professional surf teaching that is fun. All surf instructors in our surf camp in Morocco are experienced, fully licensed, qualified in the country they teach in and also have a lifeguard qualification.

Included in your Surf Lesson Packages are 6 x 2hrs. of surf lessons as well as the use of all surf equipment (wetsuit, surfboard & leash). We divide our surf guests into groups in accordance to each surfer’s surfing ability.

Our international team of professional surf instructors in Morocco doesn’t simply watch you from the beach, but gets in the water with you to help you catch the best waves and improve your surfing quickly. A theoretical introduction to the day’s surf spot, ocean safety and a warm-up are also part of your surf lesson.

Surf Guiding Packages

Surf world-renowned waves!


Our Surf Guiding package includes 6x 2 hours of wave hunting with transfers and is recommended for intermediate to advanced surfers. Basically for all those looking to surf our world-renowned right-handers that Morocco has on offer. Surf Guiding is usually with surf camp founder Reda who will ensure you are in the right spot at the right time. Taghazout area has many mind-blowing surf spots but they can change drastically within a few hours.

All our surf holiday guests booked on our Surf Guiding Packages are picked up from the surf villa and taken to the day’s best surf spot best suited to your surfing ability. This may be one of our local waves or anywhere up and down on Morocco’s Southwest coast.

To ensure you’ll get to surf the best waves suited to your surf level, our surf holiday guests are divided into groups and taken to different surf spots. Our expert surf team is always at hand to answer any questions you might have on your technique or the intricacies of the local point, reef or beach breaks.

Surfboard & Equipment Hire: We know from experience that a lot of our surf holiday guests in Morocco booked on our Surf Guiding Packages bring their own surf equipment. If, for whatever reason you shouldn’t, don’t worry. We have access to a whole host of surf hire equipment (for 10€/ day) and are at hand to help you choose the best surfboard for your surfing ability.

Moroccan Waves

4 waves in walking distance from our surf villa for you to surf every day


For our surf lessons and surf guiding, we often venture out of town to find uncrowded waves along Morocco’s Southwest coast. These range from easy beginner beach breaks to some of the world’s best and longest point breaks. Each day, our surf guides will help you find the spot best suited to your surf ability on any given wind, wave size and tide. They’ll also show you the secrets to each spot: the easiest paddling routes, the best places to sit, the spots of the reef to watch out for and the entry and exit points to save damaging your board on the rocks.

The true beauty of Morocco is the length and consistency of the waves and the variety of surf on our doorstep. The waves here are some of the longest in the world, most of which break over sand bottom point breaks. Just imagine a wave that lasts over 300 meters, allowing you to try 10+ turns on each wave, correct your body positioning and truly feel the difference between every board you choose to ride!

Should you want to explore further, the surf team will show you some of the many perfect waves up and down the Moroccan coastline. Within 30 minutes of our accommodation, there are over 35 waves from beginner surf spots to world-class waves suited for surfing professionals!

Waves around Tamraght


  • Banana point: An easy drop, a little mellow. An excellent training wave for your next step up to Anchor Point.
  • Devil’s Rock: A fun, easy-going beach break which turns into a good little wedge on West swells.
  • Crocs: A nice little wedgy left hander at high tide.
  • K17: Perfect, fun little right hander reef/ point break.

Waves around Taghazout


  • Panoramas Beach Break: A fun and wedgy right on hightide breaking over sand. Long foams ideal beginner surfers and long and mellow right handers when the waves get big.
  • Panoramas Point Brea: Breaking about 50m away from the rocks, Panorama’s point can give the best barrels in the area when it’s good. Long, easy and hollow waves suited for intermediate to advanced surfers.
  • Hash Point: A fun beach break with a small point break to the right of the bay. Popular among the local kids after school and those too lazy to walk up or down the coast to the many other waves (hence the name).
  • Anchor Point: One of the world’s longest and most famous waves! The peak breaks in front of the rocks and can throw the occasional barrel, the middle section of the wave (500 metres) is a big open-faced wall allowing for multiple turns and, when the wave hits the inside, it starts to race and barrel.
  • Anchor’s Left: A fun high tide lefthander that also breaks off the point keeping the goofy footers happy.
  • Mysteries Beach Break: Often the best beach break in the area, with lefts and rights on offer and breaking throughout the tides. Rips make it easy to get out the back and the rocks on the beach provide the perfect place to sunbathe between surfs.
  • Mysteries Reef Break: Our personal favourite wave in the area! Easy to read, not too dangerous and mechanical. Each wave breaks like the one before over a shallow reef on take-off, allowing for barrels or fast hollow drops.
  • La Source: A rock bottom wedgy reef, unpredictable and fast but certainly the best bet when the waves are small and the crowds are thin. Get the right wave here and you’ll be offered barrels, air sections and open faces all on the same wave… get the wrong wave and you get a closeout.
  • Killer Point: Named after the killer whales spotted from the cliffs (although we have never seen any). Killer’s is a long perfect point break with a reef set up further out the back for those who like a long paddle. Perfect waves and often uncrowded due to the walk.
  • Other Waves: Morocco has more waves than surfers! If you want to hire a car, our local guides can help you find empty, perfect and beautiful waves within an hour where from your accommodation. We can also tell you how to find these waves by simply using the very cheap (and fun) public transport or by joining our surf lessons and exploring with your expert surf instructor and guide.

Surf Camps Morocco

Indulge in healthy Moroccan cuisine


Every morning, you’re served a healthy breakfast including a selection of fresh fruits and vegetables, such as melons, kiwis, avocados, tomatoes, cucumber, etc. fresh juices, mint tea and coffee as well as Moroccan pancakes, fresh bread, eggs, jams, honey, cereals, etc. For your lunch at the beach, we prepare a variety of sandwiches, pasta salads, quiches or cheeseburgers for you, and also include fresh fruits and bottled water for you to take to your surf lessons.

When you come back from a long and sunny day on the beach surfing, we serve our classic afternoon high tea on our rooftop terrace with traditional mint tea and delicious Moroccan biscuits.

In the evenings, our on-site chefs prepare a three-course meal for you. Starters include fresh vegetables, salads and soups. Main courses range from traditional Moroccan dishes, such as beef, chicken or fish tajines with vegetables and selections of tapas, kebabs and couscous, to traditional Western BBQs with sausages, chicken and fish from the grill. Home-made desserts and a surf movie or live World Surf League events finish off most evenings on a happy note.

Our dinners here in Morocco are definitely one of the social highlights of each surf camp day and always great fun when reminiscing the day’s best waves or listening to Reda talking surfing adventures!

Explore Morocco

More than just a surfing holiday


Where there’s rainbows of colour in every street, smells and scents from spice-markets in the air and an urban orchestra of unfamiliar sounds all around, you’ve stepped into the exhilarating world of Morocco!

And although geographically only 13 km off the coast of Spain,  culturally, the North African country couldn’t be more distant from mainland Europe. The combination of Arabic magic, African tradition and European flair truly makes Morocco one of the world’s most diverse countries – and there’s plenty to discover when on surfing holidays in Morocco.

When on surf holidays with us in Morocco, go on a trip exploring the lively streets and colourful markets of Agadir, ride a camel through the country’s picturesque landscape that, for centuries, has inspired many artists and soul seekers alike, rock jump into the turquoise waters of the legendary desert oasis of Paradise Valley, try out sand dune surfing and, of course, surf your heart out every day. There is so, so much to see and do!

    Which surf equipment do you recommend bringing to Morocco?

    We highly recommend a 3/2 full-length summer wetsuit to maximise warmth and, therefore, surfing time. We have a range of wetsuits, surfboards and surfing equipment available for hire should you not want to travel with extra baggage or risk damage from the pesky airport baggage handlers.

  • +

    Do I need to be insured when traveling to Africa?

    It is compulsory that all our guests have their own valid travel insurance which covers surfing. We only partner with insured and reputable companies in Morocco ourselves, and, of course, we too have our own travel and tour operator public liability insurance.

  • +

    What are the rules for UK passport holders after Brexit?

    British nationals don’t need a visa to enter Morocco for the purpose of tourism for up to 3 months.
    When entering the country, make sure your passport is stamped. Some tourists have experienced difficulties leaving the country because their passport bears no entry stamp.
    Your passport should be valid for the proposed duration of your stay in Morocco. However, the Moroccan Consulate General in London advise that your passport should be valid for at least 3 months on your date of entry to Morocco. If your passport does not meet this requirement you may face difficulties and you should check with the Moroccan authorities and your travel provider before travelling.

  • +

    Do I need a visa when travelling to Morocco?

    For EU passport holders, Russian Federation, USA and New Zealand citizens a Visa is not required to enter Morocco for tourist purposes. You can stay in Morocco for up to 90 days and your passport should be valid for at least 6 months before your return date. If you are a citizen of any other country, please, get in touch with your nearest Embassy of the Kingdom of Morocco. More information here: http://ma.embassyinformation.com

  • +

    What's the weather link in Morocco?

    Morocco has over 330 days of sunshine a year, so day wear consists of boardies/ bikinis and flip flops. However, it does get chilly the moment the sun comes down, so a pair of jeans and a hoody is often worth packing.

  • +

    Can I drink alcohol and go out partying in Morocco?

    It is not illegal to drink alcohol in the Taghazout area, however, it is culturally insensitive to be seen drinking alcohol in the street with "the lads on tour"-attitude. There are supermarkets close by and you are more than welcome to bring any drink with you to the surf camp from the duty free store.

  • +

    What's the currency of Morocco?

    Morocco’s currency, the Dirham, is a ‘closed currency’, meaning you cannot, in theory, change money outside the country or take any with you when you leave. However, in practice, it is extremely easy to change any currency into Dirham upon arrival at the airport, at a number of ATMs and banks close by. Of course, Traveller’s Cheques are also always an option.

  • +

    Do I need any vaccines before travelling to Morocco?

    It is not necessary for anti-malarial precautions and no vaccinations are currently required upon entering the country. However, we do recommend you consult with a doctor before departure. We have first aid equipment always at hand and our staff is trained in administering first aid. For minor illnesses and injury, there is a good pharmacy in Taghazout and, in case of an emergency, we can visit hospitals and clinics in Agadir. Medical charges may apply, so please ensure you have adequate travel insurance before you arrive.

  • +

    Are airport transfers included?

    Yes, we include a return Agadir airport transfer for all guests who book a week-long package to our surf camp in Morocco. If you're stayong with us for less than a week, transfer prices can be found in the "Transfers & other Essentials"-secrion.
    Please let us know your arrival/ departure dates before arriving at the surf camp for your surfing holidays. Thank you. 

  • +

    Can you help me find flights?

    Budget airlines fly into Morocco from all over Europe with an average of around 100€ per return flight. If you’re flying into Marrakech, Fez or any other airport (we only offer pick-ups from Agadir), use the very reliable bus transport between cities for around 15€ each way. You can always email our team and we help you find the best flights.
