The experience

About this tour

The Atlantic coast around Agadir is a great place to learn to surf. The beaches have consistent, gentle waves and sandy bottoms — ideal conditions for beginners — and the water temperature is comfortable most of the year.

This lesson is designed for people who have never surfed before, though experienced surfers are welcome too. A qualified instructor covers the basics on the beach first — how to pop up, how to paddle, where to position yourself — then takes you into the water to catch your first waves.

Surfboards and wetsuits are provided, so you don't need any equipment. Hotel pickup and drop-off are included from Agadir, Taghazout and Tamraght. By the end of the session, most beginners have stood up at least a few times.
