Currently we are able to accept cash, credit cards (Visa/ Mastercard subject to a 3% surcharge), bank transfers and payments to our PayPal account.

We’re a relaxed beach house, it’s normal to wear swimming costumes and bikinis on the beach, and shorts, t-shirts and flip flops around the house. We would recommend covering up arms and legs a bit when walking around the towns and cities. Hoodies, long-sleeve bottoms and jumpers may be needed particularly in the Winter when it gets chilly at night.

We provide 2/3 mm wetsuits.

We provide towels for use in the guesthouse, please bring your own beach towels/ sarongs.

We have a couple of hair dryers you can borrow, if you would like to guarantee regular use of a hair dryer, we suggest you bring one with you.

Morocco’s south coast offers approx. 300 days of sunshine. During the Summer (May to September) the waves are perfect for beginners and intermediates, with long sunny days and fun, warm water surfing. From October to April, the big waves which Morocco is famous for, come in from the Atlantic Coast. Even during this season there are plenty of locations offering smaller waves for beginners and less experienced surfers.

Yes, our instructors will organise the classes so that beginners, intermediates and experienced surfers feel comfortable and are in waves suitable to their level of experience. We want you to feel safe, continue to learn and have fun! For experienced surfers, you can book a surf guide to take you to the many spots we have along Morocco’s south coast.

You can book both the surfing and yoga when you arrive, subject to availability of instructors. It would be helpful if you let us know your preferences and personal details (eg. height for wetsuit hire etc) in advance.

Yoga classes are held on our roof terrace, at the beach, or at a nearby yoga studio. For surfers the classes will be geared towards poses to aide your pre/ post surfing sessions. The morning class is a dynamic, energising work out. The afternoon is a more gentle, restorative class. Classes can be tailored to all levels of yoga practice from total beginners to more advanced. The beachfront location, ocean air and sunsets make for a very special yoga practice.

There are also many others in Tamraght, and neighbouring villages Aourir and Taghazout.
