Do you want to surf in March? Come with us to travel through the most beautiful places and ride the best waves of Morocco! We have prepared 3 dates for you. You can also come during individual courses. You don’t like long flights, but still want to surf in the heat in the winter with a taste of exoticism? Just 4 hours of flight and you are in the surf pearl of the Orient. We have prepared several packages for you, surf courses for beginner surfers, intermediate and experienced riders. You can freely choose the length of stay according to your possibilities. From time immemorial, Morocco has become a crossroads of different cultures, which have left fascinating traces on its territory. That is why it is still a mixture of the African, Arab, Berber and European worlds. Here you will find the snow-capped Atlas Mountains, arid deserts, sandy beaches, clear lagoons in the rocks and banana and orange plantations. This time we will visit the west coast of central Morocco, the fishing village of Imsouane located about 80 km north of Agadir. We will surf directly under the villa, on the longest right-hander of Morocco, Point d´Immessouane, or on the La Catedrall spot, which has three point breaks. Both complete beginners and experienced fighters will get their money’s worth. During the day the temperature does not fall below 20 ° C in the shade, in the sun up to 35 °, at night the temperatures are around 10 ° C.

FOOD
Breakfast is on your own, and we will stop at a local shop on the way from the airport. For lunch you can prepare a sandwich or visit one of the fishermen’s restaurants on the beach.
The typical and most widespread drink is Moroccan tea or Moroccan whiskey – it is a symbol of hospitality, tradition and culture. Moroccan tea is very intense. Everything is added in large quantities – tea, herbs and sugar. Its preparation and serving is a male prerogative in Morocco. It is a ritual where every step has its own meaning. In the village, all foodstuffs are available as well as local meat, vegetables and fruit of super quality. Avocados, local oranges, mandarins, bananas and more…. What you won’t come across much of here is cheese and salami. Everything is within a 5 minute walk from our house.
Moroccan cuisine is very tasty, thanks in part to the French influences here. The national dish, which is prepared in almost every restaurant, is tajine (tajine), which is always one type of meat (fish, calamari, beef or lamb) and vegetables cooked over hot coals in a round deep plate with an earthenware lid. If you haven’t tasted tajine, you haven’t been to Morocco! And we know where they make the best… Dinner is on your own, or we can go together to one of the many restaurants in Taghazout.

FAQ - DOTAZY
Můžu se zúčastnit surfcampu pokud pojedu sám/a?
Určitě ano, nebudeš jediný/á, hodně účastníků jezdí single a někteří pak dokonce odjíždí double:) Před cestou vás vždy všechny spojíme, takže můžete cestovat společně a na místě je společný program. Na pokoj tě dáme s dalšími jednotlivci nebo menšími skupinkami, takže se opravdu nemusíš bát vyrazit sám/a.
Na surfu jsem nikdy nestál/a, mohu se přesto zúčastnit?
Všechny naše surfcampy jsou určené jak pro úplné začátečníky, tak i pro pokročilejší surfaře. Naprostá většina jsou však úplní začátečníci jako ty, takže se nemusíš bát, nebudeš sám/a.
S kým budu bydlet, když nejedu ve větší skupince?
Snažíme se vždy rozdělit účastníky na klučičí a holčičí pokoje, pakliže chceš vlastní pokoj, je třeba doplatit rozdíl za neobsazené lůžko.
Je program surfcampu povinný a musím se všeho účastnit?
Celý program je nepovinný, takže pokud budeš cítit únavu, nebo si chceš jen tak dát chillíček, řekni nám to, hoď nohy nahoru v hamace nebo si dej pohodičku na pláži. Máš dovolenou:)
