Posted By : Souhail Adib/ 1272 0

Who’s looking for a surf itinerary for a week full of surfing the epic warm waters of Morocco? I know, I am.

The surf season is around the corner, and if you’ve ever dreamed of combining a week of surfing epic Moroccan waves with exploring vibrant souks, desert landscapes, and Berber culture, this itinerary is your perfect match. Southern Morocco offers an unforgettable mix of adventure and authenticity, where days begin with sunrise surf sessions and end with mint tea under desert skies.

Based in Tamraght, the heart of Morocco’s surf coast, this 7-day itinerary blends surf, yoga, and local discovery — with Original Surf Morocco as your home away from home.

Morocco Rural Side

🗓️ Day 1: Arrival in Agadir – Welcome to Morocco

Your Moroccan adventure begins the moment you land at Agadir–Al Massira Airport, just 45 minutes from Tamraght. A friendly driver from Original Surf Morocco will greet you for a comfortable transfer to the surf camp, where you’ll be welcomed with warm smiles and a glass of traditional Moroccan mint tea.

After settling in, take a stroll through Tamraght village — a laid-back surf town overlooking the Atlantic. Enjoy a delicious homemade dinner at the camp, chat with your hosts, and soak in the relaxed Moroccan atmosphere as you prepare for your first surf session tomorrow.

Pro tip: If you arrive early, catch the sunset from the rooftop terrace — it’s one of the most peaceful and interesting ways to start your trip.

🏄‍♂️ Day 2: First Surf Session in Tamraght

Wake up to ocean views and the smell of fresh Moroccan breakfast — pancakes, eggs, fruit, and mint tea. After a short morning yoga session to stretch out, you’ll head to the beach for your first surf lesson.

Tamraght’s surf spots, such as Banana Point and Devil’s Rock, are ideal for beginners. With patient and certified instructors from Original Surf Morocco, you’ll learn the basics of paddling, popping up, and reading waves safely.

In the afternoon, unwind with a hammam (traditional Moroccan spa) or simply chill on the terrace. Evenings at the surf camp are cozy — filled with laughter, fresh tagines, and the soft sound of waves in the background.

🌊 Day 3: Surf and Explore Taghazout

After breakfast, it’s time for a short 10-minute drive to Taghazout, Morocco’s most famous surf village. Known for its world-class breaks like Anchor Point and Panorama Beach, this is a paradise for intermediate and advanced surfers — though there’s always a mellow wave for everyone.

Once the surf session wraps up, explore the narrow streets of Taghazout. Stop by surf shops, try fresh seafood at a beachside café, or sip mint tea while watching locals play football on the sand.

As the sun dips, return to Tamraght to relax, reflect, and enjoy another home-cooked Moroccan meal.

🕌 Day 4: Culture Day – Souks, Spices & the Agadir Kasbah

Midway through the week, it’s time to immerse yourself in Morocco’s vibrant culture. After breakfast, join a day trip to Agadir, a modern coastal city with deep roots in Berber tradition.

Start at Souk El Had, one of Morocco’s largest open-air markets. Lose yourself among colorful spice stalls, handcrafted leather goods, ceramics, and rugs. Bargaining is part of the fun — just smile and enjoy the exchange.

After lunch at a local restaurant (vegetarian and vegan options are easy to find), visit the Agadir Oufella Kasbah for breathtaking views over the city and ocean. Return to Tamraght for evening yoga and a relaxing dinner — the perfect balance between surf and culture.

🏜️ Day 5: Mini Desert Adventure – The “Little Sahara”

No trip to Southern Morocco is complete without a taste of the desert. On day five, embark on a mini-Sahara adventure to the sand dunes near, Tamri, Tifnit or Massa National Park.

Travel through picturesque Berber villages, stop for mint tea with locals, and admire the landscapes where golden dunes meet the Atlantic. You might even spot camels and fishermen along the rugged coast.

Lunch is served picnic-style in the dunes — a peaceful escape from the world. In the evening, return to Tamraght with your heart (and camera) full of memories.

🌅 Day 6: Final Surf Session & Sunset Celebration

On your last full day, it’s all about the waves. Pick your favorite surf spot or try a new one — perhaps Panorama Beach or Killer Point. This is a great time to join a photo coaching session with the surf instructors from Original Surf Morocco to see how far you’ve progressed.

After your final surf, spend the afternoon relaxing in Tamraght — enjoy a massage, visit a local café, or explore nearby art galleries.

As the sun begins to set, head to the beach for a farewell dinner and sunset celebration with your surf family. There’s nothing quite like sharing stories and laughter while the sky glows orange and pink over the Atlantic.
