New Boats Coming Soon!

Morocco is one of the northern most points of Africa, seperated from Europe by a mere 13kms of the Straights of Gibraltar. It is dominated by the Atlas Mountains, which separate the fertile coastal regions from the harsh Sahara desert. It is the 3rd most populated Arab country, with the Moroccans generally speaking their own dialect of Arabic as well as some speaking Spanish and French and a bit of English.

Morocco is the only African country with coastal exposure to both the Atlantic Ocean and the Mediterranean sea, with nearly 2000km of coastline being Atlantic. Surfers will find several first class surf spots down the whole Atlantic coast, from Tangier to Agadir and further. Here you'll find rocky bottoms alternating with sandy ones and reef breaks together with beach breaks, offering a surfing opportunities for all skill levels. Morocco is the land of the point break, and the coastline around the Agadir area is riddled with spots that come alive with the swells. Although there is not any surf in Agadir it is a good base and has world class waves only a short drive north. The most famous surf spots lie just north of Agadir, around the fishing village and surfing mecca of Taghazout. Anchor Point as a must if you are going to surf Morocco, when it is on it can break up to 1km.

The coastline of Morocco has a diversity that offers seemingly endless areas of sand covered points, reefs, and beach breaks. 50km either side of Agadir is an area densely saturated with world class spots. With a consistent source of Atlantic swell, and a constantly changing shoreline of exposed and sheltered points, reefs and beach breaks, you can find 10ft points, endless mellow 6ft walls or perfect beginner waves.

• Tamri – A friendly beach break suitable for all levels, Tamri is a swell magnet - one of Morocco's best beach breaks. Always offshore in the mornings.
  
• Boilers – Fast, long right hand point break with a great inside barrel section.  This is one of the most consistent breaks and is recommended for intermediate to advance due to the currents and rocks.  Offshore most of the time.
• Killers – Famous sand bottomed, world class right hand point break, 250m rides are likely when there's decent swel.  There's a great lefthander  when small.
• Mysteries and the Source – Beautiful right hand reef with sand channels. Steep and hollow take off then mellows into a fun and very rippable right hand wall..
  
• Anchors – Probably the most famous wave in Morocco. It is a long world class right hand point break with long, mellow walls providing some of the best fast peeling barrel sections.  Anchors is suitable for long and short board riders, intermediate to advanved only.
  
• Devils Rock – Peaky beachy right in front of a village, fun for all levels.
• Imsouanne - one of the longest rights in the world, perfect for beginners, intermediates and longboarders.  Can turn to world class when the swell gets big enough
  
• Banana Point – mellow right hand point that breaks over sand, long walls perfect for longboarders.

Morocco weather is at its best in spring (mid-March to May), when the country is lush and green, followed by autumn (September to November), when the heat of summer has eased. Morocco generally gets over 300 days of sunshine a year, with temperatures generally falling between 21C - 30C.

Surf season for Morocco is best September through to March when you will find consistent swell, warm water and warm air temperatures. Spring and autumn have similar conditions with hotter air temperatures and less crowds. Beware of the summer months, May through to August as flat spells are common.
