Updated: Jan 31

Morocco is a dream destination for surfers year-round, but winter is when the Atlantic swells truly come to life. From October to March, consistent waves, warm sunshine, and a laid-back surf culture make it the perfect escape from colder climates. If you're planning a winter surf trip to Imsouane, here are some key tips to make the most of your adventure.


Why Surf in Morocco During Winter?


Winter brings bigger and more consistent swells to Morocco’s coastline, especially in spots like Taghazout, Tamraght, and Imsouane. While Europe battles harsh winter conditions, Morocco offers pleasant temperatures, long rides, and a vibrant surf scene.


At Little Kasbah, we welcome surfers of all levels who want to experience Morocco’s best waves while enjoying a peaceful retreat.


What to Pack for Winter Surfing in Morocco ?


Wetsuit: A 3/2mm wetsuit is usually enough, but on colder days, a 4/3mm can be more comfortable.


Surf Gear: If you have a favorite board, bring it! But if you prefer to travel light, we offer surfboard rentals, including shortboards, longboards, and foam boards.


Sun Protection: Despite the cooler air, the sun remains strong. Pack reef-safe sunscreen, sunglasses, and a hat.


Casual Clothing: Evenings can be chilly, so bring a light jacket or hoodie.



Top Winter Surf Spots in Morocco


Imsouane (The Bay & Cathedral Point): Known for one of the longest waves in Africa, Imsouane offers long rides, perfect for beginners and longboarders while also being a playground for more advanced surfers.


Anchor Point (Taghazout): A world-class right-hand point break, best for experienced surfers.


Tamri: A great beach break that works when other spots are too small.




For an unforgettable surf experience, Little Kasbah offers cozy accommodations with a breathtaking view of Imsouane’s waves. Whether you're here for a solo surf trip or a group retreat, we provide comfortable stays, delicious meals, and a welcoming atmosphere.
