Surf Camp Morocco – Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, absolutely. We always divide guests into small groups based on their level, so everyone gets the right kind of experience in the water. If you’re an intermediate surfer, you won’t be placed with beginners. Instead, we focus on helping you improve your technique, confidence, and wave selection. We also choose surf spots depending on the group’s level and daily conditions, so you’re always in an environment that supports your progress.

Yes — and surf guiding is one of our core strengths. Surf Villa was built around the vision of Brahim Iddouch — a professional athlete who grew up surfing this coastline. Today, he works closely with a team of strong local surfers who know these breaks inside out.
Each year, we also host professional surfers and bodyboarders who stay with us between competitions — and we guide them during their time here

No, you don’t need any previous surfing experience to join. Most of our guests are beginners, and we structure the week to support you from the very start — from your first time in the water to catching your first waves. Our instructors guide you step by step, and sessions are adapted to your level and pace, so you can build confidence without pressure. At the same time, we also work with intermediate and advanced surfers, so everyone is placed in the right group and gets the most out of their time in the water

Yes — our format is a fully organised week, from the moment you arrive to the final day. The cultural program is designed by our local team and included in the package, so you don’t have to think about logistics or planning during your stay. At the same time, we keep a balance between organised activities and personal time

The following are not included in the standard surf package:

• Flights or travel to Agadir
• Visa (if required) and travel insurance
• Visits or activities outside of the planned program
• One dinner outside the villa

If you have any questions about what’s included or not, feel free to reach out — we’ll clarify everything in advance

• Full set of brand new surf equipment
• 2 photo & video analysis sessions to support your progress

* All meals at the villa are prepared by our in-house chef

All cultural experiences are already included in the package:

• Surf trip to Imsouane
• Sandboarding experience

• Visit to a local market (souk) in Agadir
• Visit to a traditional argan oil cooperative
• Airport transfers to and from Agadir

Yes — we offer a reduced rate for guests who choose not to surf.
They can still fully enjoy the experience: the villa, the atmosphere, the cultural program, and time by the ocean — just without the surf sessions.
And honestly, it happens quite often that non-surfing partners get curious during the week and sometimes end up trying it themselves

Yes — we offer vegetarian and vegan meal options.
Our kitchen is flexible, and we adapt meals based on your dietary preferences. Just let us know in advance, and we’ll make sure you’re well taken care of throughout the week. Food is an important part of the experience, and everyone at the table should feel comfortable

We offer both private and shared room options, depending on your preference.

Our shared rooms are designed to be comfortable and spacious, with a maximum of 3–4 guests per room. We always accommodate guests in same-gender rooms.

Private rooms are available for those who prefer more personal space. The overall setup is designed to feel relaxed and comfortable, whether you’re sharing or staying privately

Yes — most of our guests travel solo.
The format of the week makes it easy to connect with others naturally: small groups, shared experiences, and time spent together both in and out of the water.

At the same time, you’ll always have your own space and time to yourself if you need it. It’s a social experience, but never overwhelming

Yes — it’s possible to work remotely from the villa during your stay.

We have stable Wi-Fi and bright, comfortable common areas where you can work if needed. Some guests combine the week with light work or a flexible schedule.

But we usually recommend stepping away from your routine as much as possible. The week is designed to be fully experienced — and most people find it far more valuable when they allow themselves to disconnect

Airport transfers are arranged based on your individual arrival time.

We coordinate all details with you in advance, so everything is organised and smooth from the moment you land. You don’t need to plan anything on your side — we take care of the logistics

 Ideally, you should fly to Agadir (AGA), as it’s the closest airport to the villa and where we arrange all transfers.

If you’re arriving in Casablanca or Marrakech, that’s not a problem. We’ll send you clear instructions on how to get to Agadir, and meet you there once you arrive. Everything is coordinated in advance, so the journey stays simple and stress-free

No problem at all. We arrange airport transfers based on your flight schedule, even if you arrive late at night or early in the morning

The villa is located about 40–50 minutes from Agadir (AGA) airport, depending on traffic. It’s an easy drive along the coast — nothing complicated to worry about

Booking a surf week is done directly through our manager, Anastasia.

We like to keep the process personal — to understand your preferences, answer your questions, and make sure the experience is the right fit for you.

You can reach out directly [here] or fill out the form on our website, and we’ll get back to you. We’ll guide you through the next steps and help you choose the best option

Yes — we require a €100 deposit to confirm your booking. The remaining balance can be paid on arrival at the villa. This allows you to secure your spot in advance while keeping the process simple and flexible

In case of cancellation, the deposit is non-refundable. However, we offer flexible options:
— You can transfer your deposit to any other available dates within one year from your original booking
— Or you can transfer your spot to another person if someone is taking your place
This way, your booking remains flexible even if your plans change

We’ll take care of most of what you need during the week — but here’s a simple checklist to help you prepare:

Documents & Essentials

• Valid passport (at least 6 months before expiry)
• Cash (for personal expenses)
• Travel insurance

For Surfing

• High SPF sunscreen (very important — the sun is strong)
• Surf zinc (can also be purchased locally)
• Swimsuit (to wear under the wetsuit)

Clothing
Even though we’re in Morocco, mornings and evenings can be cool — so it’s good to bring some warm layers.

• Comfortable shoes for walking or hiking
• Hoodie or light jacket
• Beach bag
• Flip-flops or sandals
• Hat and sunglasses
• Something nice for evenings
• Slippers or socks (villa floors can be cool)
• Beach towel

Personal Care

• Shampoo and shower gel (not provided)
• Towels for shower are provided
• Hairdryer and iron are available
• Washing machine is available for use

Basic Medication (optional)
We have first aid kits both at the villa and during surf sessions, but you may want to bring:

• Pain relief
• Something for digestion
• Antiseptic or small first aid items
• Sunscreen aftercare (like panthenol)

If you’re unsure about anything, feel free to ask — we’ll guide you before your trip.

Travel insurance is not required, but we strongly recommend having it for your trip.
It’s always a good idea to be covered in case of unexpected situations, especially when traveling and being active. It’s a small step that gives you peace of mind during the week
