Everything you need to know about Morocco’s most beginner-friendly surf village

If you’ve ever dreamed of riding your first wave somewhere warm, scenic, and full of good vibes—Taghazout, Morocco should be at the top of your list.

This once-sleepy fishing village turned global surf hotspot is one of the best places in the world to learn how to surf. Here's why thousands of surf beginners, solo travelers, and groups choose Taghazout every year to catch their first wave.

1. Perfect Waves for Beginners

Taghazout is surrounded by dozens of surf spots within a short drive, offering soft beach breaks and mellow waves that are ideal for learning.

Best beginner surf spots:

• Panorama – Long, forgiving waves and sandy bottom

• Banana Point – A fun, gentle point break that’s great for progression

• Crocro Beach – Consistent waves and a laid-back surf scene

Whether it's your first time standing on a board or you’ve had a lesson or two, Taghazout has a wave that matches your level.

2. Daily Surf Lessons & Guided Surf Safaris

At Single Fin, we make learning to surf easy, fun, and safe. Our certified surf instructors take you to the best spot each day based on your skill level and the conditions. It’s called a surf safari, and it means you get the best possible waves every day.

What’s included:

• Personalized surf coaching

• Safety tips and ocean awareness

• Equipment (surfboard and wetsuit)

• Daily transport to the beach

• Breakfast, Lunch, & Dinner

You’ll not only learn how to surf—you’ll also gain confidence in the water and a deeper understanding of the ocean.

3. Warm Weather, Warmer Water

Taghazout’s mild climate means you can surf year-round, with water temperatures hovering between 18–22°C (64–72°F). Even in winter, the sun shines most days, and wetsuits are light.

Less chill = more fun in the water = faster progress.

4. The Surf Culture is Welcoming and Inclusive

One of the things that makes learning to surf in Taghazout so special is the vibe. Everyone here—local surfers, instructors, and travelers—is united by a love of the ocean.

You'll feel encouraged, supported, and part of a global surf family from day one.

Whether you're solo or traveling with friends, you’ll make connections easily—especially at social spots like The Kitchen Club, our on-site restaurant and hangout space.

5. It’s Not Just About Surfing

Learning to surf can be tiring, which is why balance is key. In Taghazout, you can:

• Relax on rooftop terraces with mountain + sea views

• Join yoga sessions to stretch and reset

• Explore the souks and cafes of Agadir or Essaouira

• Swim in Paradise Valley’s natural pools
