Morocco Surf Trip
Here I am back after a week of surfing trip down in Morocco. It was such an awesome trip. I had loads of fun down there. The weather was amazing, sun shine for the entire 7 days I was there, the last day was particularly hot at 28 degree.
I flew British Airways from Gatwick straight to Agadir, where the people from Surf Camp Morocco. From the flight you can tell that this is a surf spot by the number if people carrying their boards, and just like me, I bet they were having a good time as well.
The Surf Camp Morocco’s house is located in a tiny Moroccan village called Tamrghat, which is a short drive from Taghazout, the main surfing village in Morocco. There’s not much in Tamrghat apart from a couple of surf camps & surf shops.
We had a good consistent swell through out the week. It was down a bit on Tuesday, up for Wednesday – Friday (3 – 4 ft with 5ft clean up sets) then down on Saturday and Sunday. Even at the smallest day (Sunday) where the waves are tiny, it was still surfable.
For most of the week we surfed Banana Point, which despite its name is actually a reef break, well the reef next to the point anyway. It’s a really nice, easy and not crowed spot compared to some of the more popular breaks around Taghazout. It’s actually perfect for my level. The guys there took us to Anchor Point, Killers, Panoramas and other famous breaks. It's fun watching all this world class break so close to each other. On last day we surfed Mysteries, yet another easy wave to surf (on that day at least) but crowded as hell.
The guests & crews at the surf camp were fun. Met this four guys who are uni friends, and they certainly know how to have fun. One of the guys had his birthday on Thursday night and I learned some new interesting drinking games from them.
