Taghazout at night

Evenings on the coast are relaxed rather than wild. Watch the sunset from the cliffs or a rooftop, have dinner in one of the small restaurants in Taghazout, and listen to live music in some cafés and surf houses. For bars and clubs, Agadir’s seafront and marina are about 15 minutes from Anza.

With kids

Crocodile Beach and Anza beach have gentle waves for first surf lessons. Kids also love sandboarding at Timlalin, a camel ride and the natural pools of Paradise Valley.

When it rains

Rain is rare and usually short, mostly between November and March. On a grey day, book a hammam and massage, explore the Souk El Had in Agadir, walk up to the Kasbah viewpoint, or simply relax at the surf house with a mint tea.

All four villages are on the same coast road north of Agadir. From Agadir Al Massira airport it is about 35 minutes to Anza and about 45 minutes to Taghazout by car. City buses and grand taxis run along the coast road, and our team can organise your transfer. Airport transfers are included in the Full Waves Hunter Experience.

Exact distances and drive times from Anza are in our guide to distances from Anza.

Taghazout is beautiful, but it is also the busiest and most expensive village on the coast. From Anza you reach Banana Point, Devil’s Rock and Tamraght in about 10 minutes and Taghazout in about 15, while staying in a real local village with Agadir close by.

At Waves Hunter Surf House we surf every day, cook homemade Moroccan food and organise trips to all these places. Rooms and dorms start from €12 a night. Read Anza vs Taghazout, see all our activities or choose a surf package.
