 FAQs

  • Unlike crowded 7-day surf camps in Taghazout or Tamraght, our Mirleft surf weekend is designed for small groups. This means more personal attention, authentic connections, and surf coaching that truly focuses on your progression. It’s not about packing the beach with people, it’s about quality, community, and growth.

    We also believe surfing should be accessible. That’s why we focus on weekend retreats, the perfect fit if you’re working, studying, or simply can’t take long periods of time off. A weekend is low-key, easy to fit into your schedule, and still gives you everything you need to recharge, progress in surfing, and experience Morocco’s authentic surf culture.
