Quick answer: Taghazout and Tamraght host the densest concentration of surf camps in Africa outside South Africa, spanning every budget from €309/week hostel-style packages to €800+/week boutique retreats. Surf Maroc's flagship Amouage property in Taghazout stands out for genuine luxury — a 4-star build with the town's first alcohol license and views over Anchor Point. Blue Waves Surf House (with locations in Tamraght and Anza) is a consistent favourite for its boho-Berber design and cactus-garden rooftop. For our full breakdown of the surf spots themselves — Anchor Point, Imsouane's Bay, and everywhere in between — see our companion <a href="/blog/surf-morocco-complete-guide">Surfing in Morocco Complete Guide</a>. This guide focuses specifically on where to stay.

What a Typical All-Inclusive Package Includes

Nearly every established camp follows a similar package structure, regardless of price tier.

  • Shared or private accommodation (dorm, shared twin, or private room depending on budget)
  • Daily surf guiding — camps typically transport guests to whichever break suits the day's conditions and group level
  • Board and wetsuit rental included
  • Breakfast and often dinner (home-cooked Moroccan meals are a consistent highlight across nearly every camp reviewed)
  • Airport transfer from Agadir, usually included or available as a paid add-on
  • Yoga sessions at many properties — genuinely optional at most, core to the offering at a few (Solid Surf House, several Imsouane camps)

Real 2026 Prices by Budget

Morocco consistently undercuts equivalent European surf camps on price, which is part of why it has become such a popular winter destination.

Frequently asked questions

What is the best surf camp in Morocco?

It depends on your priorities. Surf Maroc's Amouage leads on genuine luxury with 4-star amenities and views over Anchor Point. Blue Waves Surf House is consistently praised for its distinctive boho-Berber design. For budget travelers, Pure Surf Camp Morocco offers strong value from €309/week. For complete beginners, Yuba Surf Morocco is specifically well-regarded.

How much does a surf camp cost in Morocco?

Budget hostel-style camps start around €309-390/week. Mid-range camps with private rooms and structured coaching run €479-620/week. Premium and luxury retreats range from €709/week up to palatial suite rates at top properties like Surf Maroc's Amouage.

Should I stay in Taghazout or Tamraght for a surf camp?

Taghazout is louder, busier and more social, with direct access to Anchor Point and the famous breaks. Tamraght, a few kilometres south, is quieter and more residential while remaining close to the action — many camps have shifted their base here for this reason.

What is included in a Morocco surf camp package?

Nearly every established camp includes accommodation, daily surf guiding to the appropriate break, board and wetsuit rental, breakfast (often dinner too), and either included or add-on airport transfer from Agadir. Yoga sessions are common but optional at most properties.

Is Imsouane a good alternative to Taghazout for a surf camp?

Yes — Imsouane offers a genuinely quieter, more low-key experience centered on The Bay, one of the longest rideable waves in Africa. Camps like Olo Surf & Nature are positioned directly for this wave, making Imsouane a strong choice for travelers wanting to avoid Taghazout's busier, more social scene.

People also ask

Is Surf Maroc a good surf camp?
Yes — Surf Maroc, particularly its Amouage property in Taghazout, is one of the most established and highly regarded operators in Morocco, offering everything from dorm rooms to palatial suites with views over Anchor Point, plus the town's first alcohol license.
How far in advance should I book a Morocco surf camp?
Booking several weeks to a couple of months ahead is generally recommended, particularly for peak winter season (October-April) when demand is highest and the best-known camps fill up.
Do surf camps in Morocco offer yoga?
Many do, though it varies by camp — some genuinely build yoga into the daily structure (Solid Surf House, several Imsouane properties), while others offer it as an optional add-on alongside the core surf package.
