surf camp in Morocco: the questions people actually ask us.
We get, by email, about a hundred and eighty messages a season. Twelve questions come back every time. Here are our answers, written the way we would write them to a friend who was wondering.
The season runs from September to May: that is when the North Atlantic sends its long swells, with the water around nineteen degrees. Beginner or seasoned, the Mirleft coast has a wave for every level.
Even in the depth of winter we keep more sheltered fall-back spots for beginners — you can learn to surf here all year round.
No. The beaches around Mirleft offer gentle, forgiving waves, perfect for a first time, and every session is supervised.
Many people arrive having never set foot on a board. We start from wherever you are.
The stay covers accommodation, full-board meals and supervised surf sessions. The transfer from Agadir is an option you add at quote stage. A twenty-percent deposit confirms the booking; the balance is settled fifteen days before arrival.
The detailed rates are on the stays page. We would rather give a clear price than a fake discount.
Yes, children are welcome at the camp. For surf lessons it is from nine years old — below that, supervision and safety in the waves aren't quite there yet.
If you're coming as a family, tell us in advance; we adapt the room layout.
Yes, and many do. The camp is small, the atmosphere warm and quiet: you're never a number in a big operation.
We arrange the transfers and stay reachable before arrival — so you can set off with an easy mind.
Yes, as a paid option: a yoga session facing the ocean, to loosen what the waves have tightened.
Supervised surf remains the heart of the stay; yoga, extra surf and excursions are added à la carte, as you like.
Supervised surf sessions, timed to the best moment of the day: the instructor reads the tide, the wind and the swell, so it may be morning, midday, afternoon or sunset, at the beach break twenty metres from the surf school. On arrival and departure days the session depends on your flight times. A second session in the day is possible as an option — extra supervised lesson or free surf.
The nearest airport is Agadir (Al Massira), about an hour and a half away by road. We arrange the Agadir ↔ surf camp transfer in a private vehicle: €50 return per person, added to the stay.
The road hugs the ocean: you already see the spots go by before you arrive.
Yes. Boards and wetsuits are provided on site, matched to your level and the season.
If you have a favourite board of your own, you're welcome to bring it — but nothing is required.
Yes, full board: breakfast and dinner at the camp, home cooking, and lunch at the surf school's café-restaurant, facing the ocean.
We cater for diets (vegetarian, gluten-free) if you tell us when you book.
We offer five-, seven- and ten-day packages at our surf camp in Mirleft, with a desert variant. Five days to make real progress, ten to stop counting them.
By the third morning something shifts: you start watching the sea rather than enduring it.
Yes. More than thirty days before arrival, we refund everything you have paid. Between fourteen and twenty-nine days, we refund half of it. Under fourteen days, the full amount is due.
If you fall ill on the day of your flight, write to us first: we have already refunded honest cases in full.
