Best Yoga Surf Camps in Taghazout & Tamraght (2026 Guide)
Taghazout and Tamraght are Morocco’s top destinations for yoga and surfing retreats, offering a mix of beachfront villas, boutique surf camps, and dedicated yoga retreats. The best places to stay combine daily yoga classes, surf coaching, ocean views, and nourishing meals, with options ranging from luxury stays like Surf Maroc to more laid-back family-run guesthouses in Tamraght.
My first visit to Taghazout in 2015 was for a three-night surf-and-yoga holiday at Surf Maroc. Sitting on their rooftop after a yoga class was a pivotal moment, and, in hindsight, those three days gave me the clarity and space I needed to make some huge life changes.
Maybe you are looking for a place to slow down, a different perspective, to connect, play, learn something new, create new habits, and be nourished. These are the surf camps in Tamraght and Taghazout that I recommend for the winning combo of yoga and surfing, along with comfortable accommodation, beautiful views, nourishing food, and warm, professional hosts.
There are hundreds of surf-and-yoga hotels in the area now. I have chosen places where yoga is given a dedicated space and taken seriously; many don’t. It’s a list that is constantly being updated and tweaked. Teachers move on, and new places open all the time. If you have something to add, I would love to hear about it.
