This section is dedicated to take away all your "I wish someone had told me that before I went!" experiences. This way, you can spend less time settling in, and more time making new friends in your chosen hostel.

Taghazout, Morocco, is a super chill beach village tucked along Morocco’s long Atlantic coastline and a surfers' paradise. Morocco is famous for long right-hand point breaks! This is the place to go for surf, sand, and sun in Morocco. There are dozens of beaches along the coastline for surfing, swimming, and sunbathing. Must-see beaches are Hash Point, Anchor Point, and Panorama. Generally, the surf is best here between September to April. However, the rest of the year, the surf is good for beginners and intermediate-level surfers. Keep these months in mind when you’re booking your trip based on your own surf level. Also know that if you come in the high-season months September through April, hostels in Taghazout, Morocco, will be likely to book up quickly so you’ll want to book a bed in advance.

The small town is full of amazing cafes that offer a mix of traditional Moroccan cuisine like tagine and couscous, but you’ll also find lots of Western options and great pizzas. Don’t miss out on the fresh fruit juices or the local specialty, avocado juice! Some cafes are right on the water’s edge with incredible views -- make sure to visit one of these spots for a memorable sunset while you enjoy a traditional Berber whiskey, or as you probably call it, mint tea!

There are a few bars that serve cocktails, but they are incredibly expensive. If you think you’ll be wanting a drink or two during your week-long surf camp, then be sure to buy some wine or spirits when you are in Agadir transferring to Taghazout. Also, there is not an ATM in Taghazout to withdraw cash, so it is best to bring cash with you or you will have to take a taxi to the next town to go to the ATM.
