The short answer
Start with Morocco Surf Club. GripSea in Anza is the wave-focused, better-value base. Kymata in Tamraght is the quieter hillside choice for beginners and improvers. Both cap coaching at five surfers per instructor.
For solo travellers and beginners, a 7-night package (from €360 in Anza to €890 in Taghazout) is usually 25–35% cheaper than paying for a room, lessons, gear and transfers separately.
Already own boards, travelling as a couple and hiring a car? A self-catering apartment in Tamraght is cheaper.
Independent local network · Two camps
Morocco Surf Club: one network, two ways to surf the coast
Morocco Surf Club brings GripSea and Kymata together under one locally owned network. Each camp has its own base, rhythm and ideal guest rather than repeating the same package at two addresses.

Visit Morocco Surf ClubThe money: surf camp package vs booking it yourself
The biggest question visitors ask is whether to buy an all-inclusive 7-night surf camp or book their own room and hire a coach on arrival. These are the figures we worked out from autumn 2026 prices on the coast.
All-inclusive 7-night camp
~€480–€620
Average per person for the whole week
- 7 nights’ accommodation (shared; private rooms from €650)
- 6 days of coached surf sessions (4–5 hours a day)
- Foam and epoxy boards, plus a 3/2 mm or 4/3 mm wetsuit
- Daily transfers to the spot by 4x4 or van
- Breakfast, packed beach lunch and 5–6 dinners
- Return transfers from Agadir Airport (AGA)
- A video analysis session
Booking room and lessons separately
~€810+
Separate costs for the same 7 nights
- Private room or apartment: €350 (7 nights at €50)
- Daily surf coaching: €240 (6 days at €40)
- Wetsuit and board hire: €90 (€15 a day)
- Daily taxis to the beaches: €80
- Return airport transfers: €60 (2 × 300 MAD taxis)
- Food (café breakfasts, lunches, dinners): €180+
For solo travellers and beginners, an all-inclusive package is 25% to 35% cheaper than booking separately, with no logistics to arrange. If you already own a board, travel as a couple and rent a car, a self-catering apartment in Tamraght and surfing independently works out cheaper.
The coaching ratio truth: 1:5 vs 1:8
Not all coaching is equal. The factor that most decides how quickly you progress in Morocco is the coach-to-student ratio:
- Small-group camps (1:5 maximum): camps such as Morocco Surf Club cap groups at five surfers per instructor. The coach stays in the water beside you, corrects your paddling, calls the sets and films your stance for evening video review.
- Volume camps (1:8 to 1:10): cheaper mass-market camps often put 8 to 10 beginners with one coach, who then spends half the session retrieving runaway softboards instead of giving you feedback.
“What is the maximum number of surfers per coach in the water, and is that a cap or an average?” A clear number in writing is a good sign.

When not to book a surf camp
A surf camp is not right for everyone. We would skip the package if:
- You are an advanced shortboarder who reads tide charts, owns boards and would rather hunt empty waves at dawn than wait for ten other guests to finish breakfast.
- You dislike communal dining. Most camps run family-style dinners around big tables. If you want private evenings, book a boutique riad instead.
- You only want to surf one or two days of the week and spend the rest in Marrakech or hiking the Anti-Atlas.
