Taghazout, Morocco · Winter
Winter is the main surf season in Taghazout. From roughly November to March, North Atlantic storms send their strongest swells down to the Moroccan coast, and the famous point breaks around the village start to work. That's why many surfers plan their Morocco trip for these months.
Bigger, cleaner swells mean the famous right-hand points such as Anchor Point and Killer Point can be at their best – these are for experienced surfers. Hash Point works for intermediates on smaller days, and Banana Point is popular with longboarders and improvers. Beginners don't need to stay away: our coaches pick spots with gentler waves like Panoramas and Devil's Rock. See our surf spots guide.
Winter is the busiest season at the famous spots. Group lessons with max 5 students and a coach who knows where to go each day make a big difference. Winter suits beginners and improvers who want consistent waves and sun while it's cold in Europe, and intermediate and experienced surfers chasing the points. For the rest of the year, see the best time to surf in Taghazout.
