AGADIR surf school, camp & lodge accommodation

Agadir’s coastline has some of the world’s best surf spots such as Anchor Point, Boilers and Killers. Reefs with very long right handers and excellent beach breaks for all levels, from total beginners to experts. A few kilometres north of Agadir, lies the atmospheric fishing village and surfing Mecca of Taghazout. Although Taghazout has become a surfer hideaway, the village still lives according to the local tradition. Yet much of the activities are related to tourism and there are many restaurants and shops around geared to travellers. There is an excellent Surfcamp near Taghazout in Tamrhakht, opened all year, all inclusive and for all levels, offering guided tours to the best spots in the area while providing surf classes for beginners. Instructors speak perfect English, French, and Spanish. They have French Federation and Lifeguard diplomas.

CAMP

Villa Argane surfhouse is located 300 metres from the beach in the small town of Tamrhakht, between Banana Village and Taghazout. Built on a hillside with stunning views across the coast, the house has a traditional inner courtyard and Moroccan lounge, 5 rooms accommodating each 2 to 4 guests, and 3 bathrooms. After surfing you are welcome to watch the preparation of the famous “Tagine” and “Couscous” and the home made bread, which you will enjoy at breakfast on the terrace overlooking the ocean. A perfect place to watch sunsets and check surf conditions in the morning.

THE SURF

Surf School/Surfaris
Guided tours to the best spots in the area while providing surf classes for beginners.

Surf Spots
The region enjoys consistent, world class surfing conditions from September through to April. The combination of swell generated by the North Atlantic depressions, light offshore trade winds and a variety of point, reef and beach breaks, make the Agadir region an exceptional surfing destination. Famous surf spots around Taghazout, all a short drive distance away, include Banana Beach, Hash Point, Anchor Point, Killer Point and Boiler.

Morocco receives the same swells as the Atlantic coasts of Europe, but because of its more southerly location, does not suffer from the same cold winter weather. With swells ranging from 3 to 15 feet you will always find a wave to suit your level of surfing experience and ability. Those with less experience should not worry; when the points are 15 feet and grinding there's always a sheltered spot to found. In Summer, when Tagahzout surf spots are too small, there are always some waves in nearby Tamri, Imsoune or Tifnit.

THE LOCATION

Taghazout/Agadir
A few kilometres north of Agadir and easily accessible by bus or taxi, lies the atmospheric fishing village of Taghazout. Even if there is always a handful of tourists around and Taghazout has become a hippy and surfer hideaway, the village still lives according to its own agenda. Yet much of the activities are related to tourism these days and there are many restaurants around playing Bob Marley all day long ! The locals still wear traditional clothes, wooden fishing boats lie on the shore, painted with colourful patterns and fishermen mend their nets on the beach. The village displays an array of narrow streets line by cubic white houses with doors of many colours and intricate patterns.

Agadir is sited on a gentle bay with a seven miles of magnificent sandy beaches. It is the country's leading fishing harbour and a lively ancient town founded by the Roman and watched over by its citadel, built by the Portuguese in 1540. But in 1960, shortly after the independence of the country, disaster struck and the city was virtually destroyed by two earthquakes and a tidal wave. In the aftermath of the disaster, the government undertook the reconstruction of Agadir and planed the area as Morocco's major tourist resort. The city was rebuilt according to modern specifications for this purpose and today, Agadir is indeed Morocco's foremost seaside resort and offers a wide range of five and four star hotels.

Climate
Because it is sheltered by Cap Ghir and surrounding hills, sunshine is virtually guaranteed in the Agadir region, with over 300 days of sunshine per year! The winter air temperature seldom drops below 22C during the day, and the water temperature averages 18C.
