Taghazout’s Surf Season So Far

This year it has been a tale of one spot really, ANCHOR POINT!

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.

Around 2008 / 2009 Winter, we had the most incredible season where every week for about 3 months, we just had week after week a new swell rolled in and the points lit up. This year hasn’t been at that unbelievable consistent level, but we have had a few absolutely monster great swells come through.

To give you an idea, we have put together a few galleries from the best swells in the last couple of months:

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.

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.
