Why Taghazout
Morocco's premier surf destination, 365 days a year
Taghazout sits on Morocco's Atlantic coast, 15 km north of Agadir, surrounded by more than 15 surf breaks within a 20-minute drive. Consistent Atlantic swells, 300+ days of sunshine per year, and water temperatures between 17–22 °C make it one of Africa's top surf destinations.
MatnWave's surf camp adds daily Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu training, a rare combination that attracts guests from over 20 countries each season. The village itself offers local restaurants, a weekly souk, and Morocco's famous coastal hospitality — a genuine alternative to the crowded camps in Bali or Portugal.

Flavio, Brazil
Purple belt · returning guest
I'm definitely going back next year. The combination of surf, BJJ, and the atmosphere in the house is exactly why the week works. Already booked my next trip.
Diego, Chile
Blue belt · first trip
The local skate sessions were insane. Perfect combo with high-level BJJ training, and the evenings after class ended up being the highlight of the trip.
Alejandro, Spain
Blue belt · first surf camp
The hostel setup is perfect. Morning surf, evening jiu-jitsu, clean spaces, and a group vibe that never feels chaotic. Would recommend to anyone.
