New Cafes, New Bars, New People....

With all the new bars and cafes, a whole new set of people are visiting Taghazout, no longer a place for just the diehard surfers over Winter!

OK, so you’ve read all the articles about ‘grammers’ getting free trips, posing in special locations, in fact, queues forming just to take a snap from the right spot at the right time….. well, as the years have gone by, Taghazout has carved a little spot in the instagrammer calendar.

Yep, here are our top spots for posers, sorry instagrammers (oh you know, we all do it!):

#1: Amouage pool:

Yep, instagrammer heaven, infinity pool overlooking the ocean. Cool rugs, cushions and chill out bar area behind. Has to be the number one spot for holiday snapping!

#2: Surf Berbere cafe:

This is a locals favourite, traditional berber rugs and cushions with waves crashing against the rocks in front of you. All served with a traditional mint tea.
it’s been years since the last time, probably now it’s the right moment to be back!

#3: Dfrost bar:

We’ve no idea if you are allowed to just rock up and get a beer here, but the view is great and let’s face a sundowner on the rocks is hard to beat.

#4: Frederique’s house:

He’s apparently sold it, so the colour scheme may change, but for years, the most iconic house in Taghazout. Beautiful patterns and vibrant colours, all form to make it one of the most charming spots in Taghazout.

#5: Munga’s roof terrace:

With so many amazing roof terraces and sun spots to choose from, it’s hard to really call this as the one and only winner. Our very own surf berbere roof terrace is a much sought location, but it’s not all about us, so here are a couple of shots of Munga guesthouse from up high!

Why Taghazout Keeps Getting Better

For surfers and for everyone else! Last week I was out in Taghazout, it was a lush trip, great people staying, lovely waves out front on Hash Point and Anchor point was firing. If you ever want to see a spectacle then watching guys surfing Anchors on a big day is as...

The Taghazout Surf Season So Far

This year it has been a tale of one spot really, ANCHOR POINT. Having lived in Morocco for 7 years and travelling back and forwards for a few more years, I have noticed a huge difference in how each season’s swells have worked at the points.

Catching Up With A Former Gappy – Alice

We've Reached Out To Former Gappy & SB Host Alice To Find Out What She's Been Up To How long ago was it since you did the Surf Berbere Surf Instructor Course? September 2013 so over 5 years (yikes!) What have you been up to since doing the course with us? Worked...

Taghazout Sickness And Sewage Update

After months of problems with the sewage network, we're finally all clear! The good news…. the sewage is now being pumped away to the treatment plant and the village has been sickness free since the start of May. The bad news….. well there isn’t really any bad news,...

A Week At Surf Berbere: Creating Great Content For A Surf Camp

My First Solo Trip: November 2023 Back in November, I booked a solo trip to Surf Berbere and immediately fell in love with Taghazout and the area. The stunning mountains, fantastic surf, and welcoming people made it one of the best surf experiences I’d ever had. I...

Anchor Point, Still Got It

Anchor’s is still arguably the best spot in Morocco. We have spent hours and hours debating this over and over again. Sure it is pretty hard to look beyond Safi’s barrels (see the blog “Land Of The Perfect Rights” if you don’t know what I am talking about), or even the sheer length of ride that we were able to get up at Draculas last April.
