Taghazout is world-famous for its endless right-hand point breaks and consistent Atlantic swells. But with so many spots along the coast, where should you paddle out? Whether you are holding a surfboard for the first time or you’ve been chasing waves for years, there is a perfect peak waiting for you. Here is our guide to the best surf spots around Taghazout.

1. For the Pros: Anchor Point

This is the “King” of Morocco. Anchor Point is a world-class right-hand point break that can offer rides of up to 500 meters.

• Best for: Advanced surfers.
• Conditions: Works best on a NW swell at low to mid-tide.
• Pro Tip: It can get crowded when it’s “firing,” so respect the locals and wait your turn.

2. The Consistent Classic: Panoramas

Located just south of the village, Panoramas is a fast right-hander that breaks over a sandy bottom. It’s a great “step-up” wave for those moving from beginner to intermediate.

• Best for: All levels (depending on swell size).
• Why we love it: It’s easy to walk to from the center of town and picks up plenty of swell.

3. Beginner Paradise: Devil’s Rock & Crocodiles

Located in nearby Tamraght, these sandy-bottom beach breaks are where most people catch their first waves.

• Devil’s Rock: A fun, social atmosphere with plenty of surf schools.
• Crocodiles: A long stretch of beach perfect for practicing your “pop-up” without the pressure of a rocky point break.

4. The “Longboarders Dream”: Imsouane (Magic Bay)

While it’s a 1.5-hour drive from Taghazout, Imsouane is worth the trip. It is home to one of the longest waves in Africa.

• The Vibe: Calm, peeling, and incredibly long. You can ride a single wave for nearly two minutes!
• Perfect for: Longboarders and beginners looking for a smooth, easy ride.

5. The Hidden Gem: Boilers

Named after the shipwreck you can see from the shore, Boilers is a powerful and fast wave.

• Warning: It breaks over a shallow reef with sea urchins—bring your booties and your confidence!
• Best for: Advanced surfers looking for a challenge.
