Taghazout Surf and Stay: A Student trip Getaway

Trip Overview

Taghazout is Morocco’s surf town, and this trip is built around slowing down and actually enjoying it. Fly into Agadir or Marrakech, then we head straight to Taghazout for four days of surf, yoga, sandboarding, and enough downtime to actually feel like a break instead of a rushed itinerary.

Itinerary

Land in Agadir or Marrakech, where your English-speaking driver will welcome you and drive you straight to Taghazout, your base for the trip. Spend the rest of the day settling in, walking through the village, and getting a feel for the laid-back surf town energy.

Start the morning with yoga before heading out to surf. Enjoy a picnic lunch on the beach afterward, then head back to relax in the afternoon. Around 7pm, we will take a short 10 min hike to the popular local skate park for the evening and sunset.

A day trip out to Timlalin for sandboarding on the dunes, followed by a bonfire and music as the sun goes down. One of those days that ends up being everyone’s favorite by the end of the trip.

If there’s time, head to Paradise Valley for a last morning of natural pools before making your way back for departure.

 

trip highlights

We’ve got you covered on where to stay. We work with a range of nice hotels along the route, plus we’re partnered with some of the best hostels in the area, so whether your group wants something more social or a bit more private, there’s a comfortable option that fits. Everyone gets a great breakfast to start the day, and honestly, the stays end up being part of the whole experience, not just a place to crash.

Mornings often start with a bit of yoga before heading out to surf, a good way to stretch out and wake up before hitting the waves. Beyond the main itinerary, there’s plenty to add on depending on what your group’s into: quad biking, camel rides, horseback riding along the beach, paddleboarding, kite surfing lessons, and even day trips to nearby fishing villages. Let us know what your group wants more of, and we’ll build it in.

Any size group works. If there are more than 20 of you, just book in advance, since all our trips run private.

 

Just like all the coast trips. Comfortable, casual clothes, a swimsuit, and something for cooler evenings.

 

This coast works well most of the year. Summer is warm without the intense heat you’d get inland, and winter stays mild, though it can get breezy, especially in Essaouira. Spring and fall are the sweet spot if you want the calmest weather. For surfing its flat in summer, but we will drive you to near by places to find waves.

 

We actually own our own transportation company, so it’s not some random driver you’ve never met. Small groups ride in a Toyota Prado, bigger groups get a Mercedes Vito van or Sprinter minibus, and for groups over 20 we bring in a full-size bus. Everything is clean, comfortable, and driven by drivers we know and trust.

Yes, we can include or exclude activities to suit what you and  your group like.

 

Yes, both Taghazout and Essaouira are considered very safe towns, used to hosting travelers and student groups. Our team is with you throughout the trip.

It’s a completely different side of the country from Marrakech or the desert, surf towns, ocean air, and a slower pace. If you have the time, combining it with Marrakech or the desert is the best way to see more of what Morocco offers.

 

Yes, this trip can be extended to more days or shortened to fit your schedule. It also pairs well with our desert or coast trips if you or your group wants to add more of Morocco, or both, for the full experience.
