THE SURF SCHOOL

Five mornings with a coach, on the beach the tide chooses

A surf school day begins at breakfast. Your coach looks at the tide, the swell and the wind, then picks the beach: Crocro, Devil’s Rock, Banana Point, Panoramas or Hash Point, wherever the waves suit you that day. The boards go on the roof and you set off together. Two hours in the water with the coach, lunch on the beach, then the afternoon back in the water at your own pace, the coach watching from the sand.

The groups are small, four to six people of a similar level, so the coach sees every wave you take. Beginners start on the sand with the pop-up, then work on paddling, balance and choosing a wave in the white water; most stand up on the first morning. Intermediates paddle out past the break and work on reading the line-up, catching green waves and their turns.

This coast works all year. From October to April the Atlantic swells wake the point breaks, Anchor Point first among them, with the biggest from December to February; the coach then keeps beginners on the sandy, gently sloping beaches of Tamraght and Aourir. Summer brings smaller, gentler waves and warmer water, the easiest months to start. In winter the sea is around 17 to 18°C, and the wetsuit comes with the board.

  • Small groups

    Four to six people of a similar level, and a coach who sees every wave.

  • The spot follows the tide

    Crocro, Devil’s Rock, Banana Point, Panoramas, Hash Point: the coach decides each morning.

  • Your level, your goal

    Beginners usually stand up on the first morning; intermediates work on green waves and turns.

  • A full day on the beach

    The lesson, lunch on the sand, then free surf in the afternoon with the coach watching.

  7. Day 7

    Fifth surf day, a last yoga session, and a final dinner together.

QUESTIONS

Before you choose

I have never surfed. Is this week for me?

Yes. The groups are four to six people of a similar level, and the coach takes beginners to a gentle, sandy beach: most stand up on the first morning. If you already surf, you join a group at your level and work on the line-up, green waves and your turns.

Moonlight or Blue Whale: which house for this week?

Moonlight sits in the old village of Taghazout, with Panoramas and Hash Point five minutes down the steps and Anchor Point a fifteen-minute walk north along the shore. Blue Whale, in Tamraght, is the beginner’s house: Crocro Beach and Devil’s Rock are a ten-minute walk downhill. Prices are higher in Taghazout: a surf school day is 560 MAD at Moonlight and 500 MAD at Blue Whale.

Can I swap a surf school day for a private lesson?

Yes, in the builder. A private lesson is two hours one to one with a coach, board and wetsuit included, at the hour the tide decides, often early morning or late afternoon: 700 MAD at Moonlight, 600 MAD at Blue Whale. The surf school day also brings the transport, lunch on the beach and the afternoon free surf.

What if the sea is flat, or too big?

The days follow the ocean. Each morning the coach reads the tide, the swell and the wind and picks the beach that suits your level, from Crocro and Devil’s Rock to Banana Point, Panoramas and Hash Point. When the sea asks for it, the order of the days changes: a surf day and the free day can swap.
