Learning to surf along Morocco’s coastline is a great way to spend time in the water while building real skills. These sessions are designed for all levels, combining hands-on coaching with a relaxed, supportive environment. Each lesson focuses on helping you improve while feeling comfortable and safe in the sea.
Your session begins with a short theory and safety briefing on the beach. This covers how to handle your board, understand basic wave behaviour, and stay safe in the water. You’ll also go through a warm-up and practise the pop-up technique on the sand, so you know exactly what to do before heading into the sea.
Once in the water, your instructor stays close, guiding you through each step. Beginners will focus on catching their first waves in the whitewater, while those with experience will work on improving positioning, timing, and control. The small group sizes mean you’ll get regular feedback and plenty of time to practise.
Throughout the session, conditions are carefully chosen based on tides, swell, and wind to give you the best possible experience. By the end, most people are able to stand up and ride a wave, or noticeably improve their existing skills. Photos and videos may also be available so you can look back on your progress.
Lessons take place along the coastline between Tamraght and Taghazout, an area known for its consistent surf and variety of beach breaks. The exact spot is selected daily depending on conditions, ensuring a safe and suitable environment for your level. This flexibility means beginners can learn in calmer areas, while more confident surfers can be guided to slightly more challenging waves.
The region itself is a well-known surf destination, offering long sandy beaches and a laid-back atmosphere. With easy access from nearby accommodation, it’s a convenient setting for regular sessions, and the changing conditions keep each lesson slightly different from the last.
Participants should have a basic ability to swim and feel comfortable being in the sea. You don’t need to be an advanced swimmer, but you should be confident enough to handle small waves and follow safety instructions in the water.
No previous surfing experience is required for beginners, as everything is taught from the ground up. For those with some experience, instructors will adapt the session to match your level and help you progress further.
The approach focuses on combining professional instruction with clear safety guidance, so every guest feels supported from the start. Sessions begin with structured briefings and continue with close supervision in the water, helping you build confidence while learning at your own pace.
Beyond the lesson itself, there’s a strong emphasis on creating a full surf experience. With in-depth knowledge of local conditions, tides, and surf spots, each session is carefully planned to suit the day. Small group sizes, tailored coaching, and attention to detail all come together to make each session both enjoyable and rewarding.
