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!

That Fuzzy Feeling: Helping Out In The Community

Taghazout is a funny place, funny in a lot of ways. There are the people, there are the goats, there is the rubbish, there are the surfers, there are the kids, there is the weather, there is even the weird smells. Somehow, they all combine together to make the village...

30 Days In To Becoming A Surf Instructor

A month ago we arrived, people from all corners of the world centred in this little pocket of Morocco. As a Moroccan newcomer, my first experience of a taxi ride from the airport in a rickety car that was barely holding together, confirmed that this would definitely be a kind of three months different from anything and anywhere else.

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,...

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...

Taghazout Sewage Works Update

Phase 1 Nearly Complete! A lot of people have been enquiring recently about the sewage works that were started last year and where they are up to. We’re really pleased to say that 80% of the village (PHASE 1) is now connected up to the new sewage network….. HOWEVER,...

Road Tripping To The Desert

Three wonderful months are over. And the time has come to say goodbye. Goodbye to foreigners, who became friends. Goodbye to a country that many of us have not visited before. Taghazout has become our home for the last months and leaving it, all our new friends and...
