Spot guide
Surf spot decision guide
Read the spot, then open forecast and Live Ocean before moving the group.
Choose it when
Clean right-hand point sessions for confident intermediate-to-advanced surfers staying in Taghazout or checking north from Tamraght.
Skip it when
Avoid for beginners, families, nervous intermediates, crowded takeoff, heavy sets, wrong wind, or any uncertainty about entry and exit.
Stay location and next step
Locally it is the prestige right point, not the safest default. If rocks, crowd or size feel wrong, the useful move is Panorama, Hash Point or a Tamraght beach check, not forcing Anchor.

Field notesOpen details
Locally it is the prestige right point, not the safest default. If rocks, crowd or size feel wrong, the useful move is Panorama, Hash Point or a Tamraght beach check, not forcing Anchor.
If the lineup looks busy from Madraba or the takeoff feels rushed, do not sell it to mixed groups. Panorama or Hash Point can save the session while keeping the Taghazout point feeling.
Best framed as clean NW/WNW swell, light wind and confident entry/exit. Low-to-mid tide can be useful, but rocks and crowd matter more than a perfect number.
Ask: would this surfer be calm after a missed wave near rocks? If not, route them to Panorama, Hash Point or Tamraght instead.
Closest from Taghazout village and Madraba. Tamraght/Aourir stays can check it fast by car; Agadir stays should treat it as a deliberate advanced run. Entry, exit, parking and crowd must be read before paddling out.
