Surf Levels Explained
In and around Taghazout we have a multi aspect coastline, which provides a range of different surf spots that work for any given tide or swell – we have waves for all surfing abilities.
To ensure you get to surf waves suited to your ability we implement a surf levels system. This helps us pair you with a surf group seeking the same type of waves. We’re able to cater from pro surfers to complete beginners.
Our team of professional surf coaches and system of levels sets us apart from other surf camps in Morocco.
Level 2
Our level 2 is for surfers who know the basics and are still practicing getting up in the foam. The goal will be to develop your confidence in the waves in order to perfect your stability on the board and thus increase the number of waves you catch. The key points will be paddling and catching the waves without help from the instructor, giving your board the right speed and especially practicing your pop-up.
Level 3
You paddle to the line-up, practicing standing up and turning. For level 3 groups, the focus will be on finding clean, gentle waves to help you progress. You will only surf beach breaks.
You will learn all the techniques to paddle to the line-up easily, be in control of your board, perfect your pop-up and how to best place your weight on the board. You will also learn how to select your waves, catch them and surf them.
Level 4
You’re comfortable at Beach Breaks, Sandy bottom points/reefs up to head high and able to trim, turn and log roll.
If you’re on the Surf Coaching package, these sessions are ideal for refining your technique, breaking bad habits and catching more waves. It’s also great for surfers returning after time away who want a refresher to get the most out of their stay.
Level 1
Our Level 1 coaching program teaches you the basics of surfing. You’ll start on the beach before moving into waist-deep water, where you’ll learn how to handle your surfboard, safety rules, how to read waves, how to paddle and catch broken waves from lying on your board. You’ll be standing up surfing in no time!
FAQs
Your commonly asked questions answered.
Which locations can I join a surf coaching program at?
Surf Coaching Programs are available in Taghazout, at our beachfront locations, Amouage and Taghazout Villa.
Whether you are at Amouage or Taghazout Villa you will get the same surfing experience, the only difference being the type of accommodation you want. Amouage offers a more boutique hotel vibe, while Taghazout Villa is our more budget friendly laid back beach vibe villa. Regardless of which location you choose, you’ll never be more than a few steps from the water and will get to surf some of Morocco’s best waves.
Can I bring and use my own wetsuit and surfboard?
Of course you can. Remember though that at the Surf Shop & Hire Centre you can find a range of boards including firewire and Mayhems to try.
When can I take my lesson?
Lessons are given in groups (unless individual lessons have been pre-booked) and take place in the morning, usually from 9:30 am. However, the starting time remains at the discretion of the coach, which may change depending on the conditions of the day.
How long are surf lessons?
Coaching sessions are 2 hours long.
Are individual coaching sessions available?
Yes, we offer private coaching, it needs to be pre-booked.
What’s the difference between Surf Coaching and Surf Guiding
With our Surf Coaching, you will get a dedicated 2-hour coaching session everyday, with hands-on training and guidance from our pro coaches, dedicated to helping you learn to surf or take your skills to the next level. You’ll have video analysis, theory sessions and a structured curriculum to guide your progression.
Surf Guiding on the other hand, is for people with a higher level of surfing ability, looking to score some of Morocco’s best waves, under the expert guidance of some of Morocco’s best surfers but without dedicated daily lessons. You will team up with a small group of other guests at a similar level and with your guide will head off along Morocco’s coast to find the best waves.
How many people will be in my group?
We are very sensitive about the number of people we take to a spot, and there is a maximum of eight people in a vehicle. We are legally allowed to teach at a ratio of 12 students to1coach but our operational average is 6 to 1. On very rare occasions we have to combine groups due to the split levels.
Is the board and wetsuit included only for the days I have lessons?
If you are on the surf coaching package, your board and wetsuit are included for all of your stay.
What kind of board will I use (beginners)?
Those new to surfing will use soft top boards, essentially these surfboards are designed with safety in mind. They function in much the same way as a normal surfboard and are what everyone on the team chooses when the waves are small (small is good when you’re starting out!)
