Travelling to Morocco has seen a lot of changes and challenges over the last 3 years. Between border closures and obscure travel requirements, it was difficult to reach Taghazout Bay and the amazing waves that rolled through. So we’ve put a list together of some tips as you plan your trip to Morocco in 2023.
We’re not journalists.
We’re surfers, running a surf school and surf camp in Morocco.
But in making sure you have a good surf experience in Taghazout Bay during a coronavirus pandemic challenges us to flex our investigative and journalistic muscles: We want to make sure you have the most up to date and accurate information when travelling to Morocco so you can have a hassle free surf trip.
Over the last few months Local Surf Maroc has been receiving numerous DM’s and PM’s about the circumstances and restrictions in Taghazout Bay, Morocco. Frequently asked questions have included: Is there anything to do? What’s open? Can we go surfing?

With all the optimism in the world, everyone in Morocco was hoping for the COVID-19 lockdown restrictions to be eased last week. As surf camp owners, we had our fingers crossed that the state of emergency would be lifted for international travel. But on June 9, the Moroccan government announced that the State of Emergency would be extended to July 10.
Last time we posted, Local Surf Maroc was in limbo. Today, we still remain in lockdown. Over the last few months we have taken the time to reflect on, not only our intentions to own a surf camp, but what we would like it to look like and how it makes guests feel. The COVID-19 pandemic has shaken the tourism industry but and at Local Surf Maroc we have had to make some difficult decisions. They are decisions that we feel will allow the surf camp to move forwards in the coming months and years.
