Coworking on the Moroccan surf coast consists of endless views of the majestic ocean, magnificent sunsets and sunrises, mint tea and fresh fruits, and, needless to say, non-stop source of waves! There are five breaks within a twenty-minute walk, which means you can turn in your work and be inside the water just in time to see the sun disappear into the Atlantic.

This blog is detailing seven reasons why coworking in Morocco should be on your bucket list as a digital nomad.

1: WAVES

The #32 bus line that goes from Agadir to Taghazout has just two words on the front display: Go Surf. This area has been built around the surf scene, and it’s easy to see why.

The consistency of swell from December to May and a wide array of points, beaches and reef breaks for surfers of all levels make Morocco a surfer’s dream.

There are user-friendly beach breaks for the beginners to make it into the lineup for their first green wave, gently sloping point breaks for intermediate surfers getting more comfortable in big swell, and heavy reefs and slabs that can give advanced waveriders the ride of their life.

Morocco boasts world-class points like Anchor Point, Draculas, and Boilers — not for the faint of heart, but could be a perfect opportunity to reward yourself and polish your surfing after finishing that work task.

2: FUEL

Like work, surfing requires you to have plenty of energy for maximum results. Nourishment in Morocco is fresh and easy to come by.

As a surf accommodation now proudly offering coworking packages, we have adapted to the needs of our busy developers, marketers, and educators by supplying a constant flow of refreshments.

Coworking with Moroccan hospitality equals mint tea, coffee, bottled water and fresh fruits from the local souk.

Tamraght is a growing village, meaning that new cafes and restaurants are popping up constantly to provide you with brain food for maximum productivity.

3: UNPARALLELED VIEWS

Where better to gain inspiration than the ocean? Pictured below is where this blog was written, beneath the sun and amongst the flora, gazing at a rare flat day.

The European Centre for Environment & Human Health research shows that people who live on the coastline enjoy happier and healthier lives than their inland counterparts.

“Ocean therapy” has been used to spur creativity and reduce stress. If you can’t be surfing, you might as well look at the sea while you work.

The temperate coastal climate of Tamraght means that working outside year-round is possible with an average temperature of around twenty degrees in the winter and in the low thirties during summer months.

It’s perfect weather for coworking. 

4: EASE OF ACCESS

Morocco was endowed with this unique work environment, and it is easily accessible to Europe. Agadir International Airport has daily arrivals of visitors coming for sun and surf from Europe, Asia and North America.

The emergence of low-cost airlines has made travel to and from Morocco highly affordable for travellers and digital nomads alike. 

Digital nomads from a lot of countries have visa-free entry and can stay in the country for ninety days at a time. Digital nomads can legally work remotely for companies in their home country from Morocco or while visiting Morocco as tourists.

Getting around the surf coast is just as easy as getting to it. The Agadir local line #32 bus is roughly 0.5€ and runs frequently from Agadir to Taghazout with several stops in Tamraght. Local, grand taxis are readily available and affordable, too.

With several surf breaks and shops walkable in town or on the four-kilometre cycle path along the beach between Tamraght and Taghazout, those who prefer not to take any public transportation there are plenty of options either on foot or bicycle.

 

5: COST OF LIVING WHEN YOU COWORK IN MOROCCO

We touched on this briefly in the previous section. Morocco is a very affordable place to live and cowork.

Digital nomads are paid in euros, dollars, and pounds and that’s an advantage because these currencies go a long way when spending with Moroccan Dirhams. 

NomadList states that the average total cost of living in Taghazout as a digital nomad is around 925€ per month. 

Apartments for weekly rent are available from local real estate companies and we now offer coworking/coliving packages for professionals who have always wanted to experience what it’s like to live, eat, and work at a surf camp.

 

6: VIBES

While the ocean is just one example, environment influences the way in which our minds and bodies work. 

Comfort and productivity have a striking correlation, and it’s proven that sunlight has positive effects on mood and energy.

Between three-hundred days of sunlight, the unlimited power of the ocean, and world-renowned Moroccan hospitality, this is the ideal place to get your mind and body right for full efficiency. 

Yoga classes take place twice a day, at sunset and sunrise in the enclosed studio adjacent to the dining room. It is the ultimate way to wake up your body and mind for the day and wind down after finishing work.

7: BALANCE OF COWORK IN MOROCCO

This last section is meant to tie all of the above into one single point; balance. Work-life balance has shot up the list in important values for young professionals. 

The work to live mentality is being replaced by a live-to-work mindset in which people have the freedom to work when and where suits them, have their favourite activities easily accessible, and structure their days the best they see fit.

This area gives digital nomads the best of many worlds: surf, fuel, environment, transportation and vibes at an affordable price.

Coworking and digital nomadism are exciting. 

At Original Surf Morocco, we are proud to provide a space where digital nomads can let their minds and bodies run free. 

We have surf hire and lessons on site, fibre-optic internet connection, two local chefs freshly preparing pre-ordered meals, unlimited refreshments with a coworking day pass, yoga classes, co-living packages, and Moroccan hospitality with plentiful dosages of sun and sea.

It offers a relaxed coastal vibe, coworking-friendly accommodations, fast internet, and access to the beach and surf.

It’s a state-owned phosphate mining and fertilizer company and one of the world’s leading exporters of phosphate-based products. OCP plays a crucial role in Morocco’s economy and has a strong global presence in agriculture and sustainability sectors.

What is the meaning of Cowork?

Cowork is short for “coworking,” which refers to a shared workspace where independent professionals, remote workers, freelancers, and digital nomads can work alongside each other. These spaces usually offer internet, desks, meeting rooms, and a community environment encouraging networking, collaboration, and productivity.

 

Can you show affection in Morocco?

 

Morocco is a conservative country, so public displays of affection (PDA) like kissing or hugging romantically in public are generally frowned upon—especially in rural or traditional areas. Holding hands is more accepted, especially in tourist zones, but it’s always best to be respectful of local customs and cultural norms. Affection between friends, like hand-holding or cheek kisses, is more common and culturally appropriate.
