About the project
- Hosted by Youness Kandil
You will be welcomed by a passionate local surfer who grew up chasing waves in Agadir and turned that love for the ocean into a life purpose. Supported by a dedicated team of local surf coaches, cooks, and guides, the hosts are committed to sharing the true beauty and energy of their country. They view this project not just as a place to stay, but as a space to foster global connections, creating a family atmosphere where every traveler feels at home.
About the destination
Located in the laid-back village of Tamraght on Morocco's stunning Atlantic coast, this experience immerses you in a world-class surf hub rich in Amazigh culture. Far from the crowded city centers, you’ll be surrounded by sweeping coastlines, rolling sand dunes, and the foothills of the Atlas Mountains. It is a safe, welcoming neighborhood where surf culture blends seamlessy with traditional life, offering easy access to beaches, local cafes, and vibrant markets.
Impact & Purpose
This experience addresses the lack of authentic connection in modern tourism. Instead of just observing, travelers become part of the community ecosystem. By choosing this journey, you directly support local jobs—from surf instructors to transport partners—ensuring that tourism dollars benefit the people who call this coastline home, fostering cultural pride and economic stability.
