Taghazout is a small, laid-back fishing village on Morocco’s central west coast. It’s become a mecca for European surfers, with surf spots like the Panoramas, Hash Point and world-famous Anchor Point just minutes away. The town itself is very small (pop. 5000), but there are surf shops, restaurants, pharmacies, Moroccan handicrafts and more.
Lining the coast north and south of town are numerous surf spots with a variety of perfect waves, from sandy-bottomed beginners’ waves, to long, glassy point breaks. In winter, storms in the north Atlantic generate long period groundswells that travel thousands of miles to the coast producing the clean waves the area is famous for.
