Description

A special fusion of a traditional african fishermen’s village and western surf culture

We’re firm believers that truly great travel is not about ticking sights off a checklist, but rather about having unique experiences and learning new skills. During our Moroccan adventure, you can extensively learn about two things: waves and Berber culture.

Let’s start with the waves. Morocco is the African continent’s major surf destination. It became popular for its right-handed point breaks, and surfers from all over the world have been visiting since 1950.

Even if you’re a beginner, by the end of the week you’ll have the basics covered. The longest and most beginner-friendly wave in Morocco is located in the small fishermen’s village of Imsouane. At low tide, this wave is perfect for beginners, while at high tide, pro surfers can practice on the right- and left-handed reef breaks on the other side of the bay.

Even rock stars are chilling here

Our home base is located directly on top of the rocks above the crashing waves, offering a breathtaking view over the famous bay of Imsouane. We spend the evenings chilling on our rooftop terrace or around the pool.

We visit traditional Berber markets where we can select from authentic Berber woven crafts or sample bright and colorful Moroccan spices. We also explore Morocco’s coolest port, Essaouira, which was founded by the Carthaginians. Many rockstars discovered this place in the sixties, it is even said that Jimi Hendrix spent quite some time here.

The sights of Morocco are only rivaled by its sounds—none more iconic than the muezzin’s call to prayer, which resounds and echoes off the streets and houses across the city five times a day.

Accommodation

Moroccan-style villa with pool and breathtaking views directly overlooking the bay of Imsouane. With the waves of the legendary surf spot crashing directly below us, we can always head down to the beach if we feel like it, or even watch the surfers from the sun loungers by the pool.

In the super-talented 4-5-bed apartments, it's just us, so we don't have to share the perfect party space: large communal areas and rooftop terraces.

Daily surf lessons with professional English-speaking instructors in groups based on surfing skills (from total beginners to advanced). During the surf lessons you will learn the proper stance, how to paddle, turn, pop up and keep your speed, as well as surf etiquette, safety and how to read the beach (waves, rips and currents). A wide variety of surfboards to choose from which you can use also after the surf lessons.

With more than 300 days of sunshine, Morocco is a year-round destination and you’re unlikely to encounter rain. Winter months have cooler but very pleasant temperatures (air 18-26 °C; water 16-20 °C).

Maximum of 24 people, usually mixed nationalities. Solo travelers, group of friends and couples with varying surfing skills and experience.

We make high-quality content in all our camps. You will receive the photos after returning home to remember all the amazing memories.

Depending on spending habits, your budget for the trip should range from €150-300. For reference, a meal costs between €2-10. Also, keep in mind that we will visit several souks, so souvenirs and Moroccan carpets should be considered as extra costs.

Breakfast consists of traditional Moroccan pancakes, served with jam and butter, accompanied by freshly baked French baguettes, egg, coffee and tea. Dinner is a fusion of Moroccan and international cuisine and is served at the accommodation. For lunch, we can choose from the nearby fish buffets and authentic local places.

A perfect mix of friendly beach breaks and world-class point breaks. Due to the varied nature of the coastline, there is almost always somewhere sheltered and manageable, but those looking for a challenge won’t be disappointed either. The longest and friendliest wave in Morocco breaks right in front of our house, and at high tide, pro surfers can practice on the right- and left-handed reef breaks on the other side of the bay.

Comfortable minivans with AC for transfers from the airport and to all sights, hiking trips and recreational activities.

We mainly surf, enjoy the laid-back pace of life in a traditional Moroccan fishing village, and chill and party at the pool or on one of our rooftop terraces. One day, we visit Essaouira, a historic port city and popular hippie pilgrimage site since the 1970s.

You will need an insurance that covers surfing accidents. You can contact us and we are happy to recommend the most suitable one.

Basically, I like self-organised trips because it’s done the way I want it to be done. So I was a bit sceptical, but honestly, it was better than organising it myself!

Peter

It was a very relaxed and friendly camp, really free and lots of surf! I really enjoyed it!

Livia

It was a very good decision to spend New Year’s Eve in Morocco. Good weather, sunshine, good waves. The usual great company of GoBeyond got together again, I had a great time. I really enjoyed surfing in the last sunset of the year.

Gabor

This week was one of the best experiences of my life.

Kristof

I came here for the unlimited surf. It was flawless 🙂

Program

7-day itinerary

Short transfer to the accommodation with our minivans, with a welcome get-together on our rooftop terrace.

The most motivated surfers have the chance to surf as much as they can. The rest of the group, following a filling and healthy breakfast, walks down to the legendary surf spot right in front of our accommodation at low tide.

Our surf instructors and guides divide us into groups based on surfing experience to make sure we can improve the most.

For lunch we have a picnic on the beach- with a potential nap in the shade- or visit one of the traditional fish stands where they serve fresh grilled fish. Those with an abundance of energy paddle back out for some afternoon surf while the rest of the group can relax, bask in the sunset by the pool with a cocktail in hand, have a massage, or unwind with optional sunset yoga.

We dedicate one day to a visit to Essaouira, a historic port city and a popular hippie pilgrimage site since the 1970s.

We catch one last surf session either in the sunrise or after breakfast. Afterwards we head to the airport full of great memories and new friendships.

The program is subject to change at any times. The final itinerary depends on current weather conditions, swell, tidal movements, the group’s surfing skills and stamina.

FAQ

Not at all. There are always people who come alone, so you can be sure that you’ll make new friends.

Obviously yes, at least half of the group always consists of beginners. We have found perfect conditions for beginners each year, and with the help of the professional instructors, you will be able to learn the basics very effectively.

The longest and friendliest wave of Morocco is located right in front of our accommodation at low tide, whereas at high tide the pro surfers can practise on the right- and left-handed reef breaks on the other side of the bay.

We’re pretty sure that you’ll love surfing. In the same time we will enjoy the laid-back pace of life in a traditional Moroccan fishing village and chill and party at the pool or on one of our rooftop terraces. One day we visit Essaouira, a historic port city and a popular hippie pilgrimage site since the 1970s.

Moroccan-style oceanfront private villa, with super cozy apartments offering 4-5 beds. Includes a large community area, a pool and several rooftop terraces with ocean views.

There are several locations offering delicious local cuisine with tagine and grilled seafood, in addition there is a wide range of small cafes offering Western food in the city, usually run by French expats.

Tap water is OK for washing and brushing teeth, but it is not recommended for drinking. Bottled mineral water is cheap (5 dirhams) and available everywhere. Alternatively you can bring a water purifier and help keep plastic out of the ocean.

There are only a few places selling alcoholic beverages, and the prices are quite high. We recommend coming prepared for the trip by purchasing drinks at the duty-free shop at your departure airport.

During the daytime it’s sunny and 20-28 °C, during the night it’s 17-23 °C. The water is 18-20 °C. Board short, 3.2 mm wetsuit (it’s included in the package if you don’t have your own) is needed. Bring both hiking shoes and slippers with you.

The local currency is the Moroccan Dirham (MAD). You should bring EUR or USD with you and exchange it at the airport. Later on, you can also exchange money at banks with your passport. There are only a few ATMs, transaction fees are quite high, and most places don’t accept card payments, so we recommend using cash.

You should choose an insurance which expands to surfing and is valid in Morocco. You should be aware that your bank card insurance is not valid in most cases.

We are travelling to Morocco, so you need to know that diarrhea and stomach infections happen somtimes. Tap water is not drinkable! It’s always a good idea to keep a bottle of clean water and hand sanitizer in your bag.

It depends on your nationality. From most of the countries you will only need to fill out an immigration form on arrival for free. Please always check it on your local embassy’s website.

Agadir and Marrakech are very popular international tourist destinations, where tourists feel safe. Our surf destination is an indigenous Berber village which lives on the services offered for the surfers of the Western countries for more than a dozen years, no major incidents have occurred.
