Well you could always do there 7 day trip figure out what brake you enjoyed the most and then go back there for the rest of the trip and surf till you drop. Just an idea. Don't know morrocco enough to give much more info then that. The only other thing I can think of would be to talk with a travel agent at AAA or something and see what they can put together for you.

Is going with a company really important to you as Morocco is easily done independently.

All you need to do is fly out to Agadir, catch a bus or cab to Tarazouhte and then get yourself a cheap room or apartment. Hire a board from one of the local surf shops and walk to the beach.

They hire wetsuits as well but I would be inclined to bring my own for the usual reasons :wink:

Anyway, I love the place, there's something there for everyone.

Regards

Its dead easy just turn up at Tarazhoute walk past the shops and resterants untill you get to the rental apartments and then just speak to the owner. A good two bedroomed apartment costs about £10 a night and includes kitchen and shower.

Hiring boards is easy as there are about 5/6 surf shops renting them. Sorry not sure on the prices always took my own. Should be cheap though and ask for a deal on a weeks rental basis.

As for the best places to surf if your a starter the best beach is Panaramas which is on the edge of town about a 5 min walk from the apartments or if your good Anchor point which is a 10 min walk from town. Next to Anchor point is Draculas which is a good intermediate spot. There are other heavier spots but you'll need a ride.

Right in the centre of town is Hash beach but I prefer the nice ripable waves at Panaramas. In fact I love this spot its just so easy to ride and great for starters. Its where I learnt to ride.

As for Tarazhoute I love the place so chilled and laid back never any agro just cool vibes. The food is cheap and there's about 5/6 cafes resteraunts.

Need any more info just ask.
