Surfing

You can surf all along Morocco’s Atlantic Coast, but the best place to catch waves is
Taghazout (Click here). It’s clear what floats the village’s board as soon as you arrive: the
usual cafes and tèlèboutiques are joined by surf shops, where locals and incomers wax boards
and wax lyrical about the nearby beaches. Taghazout’s happy mix of villagers and surfers is
more refreshing than a dip in the ocean. On the same stretch of coast between Agadir and
Essaouira, Tamraght and Sidi Kaouki are also set up for surfing.
