The actual packing list
Surf
- A 3/2 wetsuit works spring to autumn; add a 4/3 or a thermal layer for December–February mornings
- Reef-safe zinc and SPF50 — the sun is strong even when the wind feels cool
- Leash, wax (warm-water in summer, cool-water in winter) and a small ding-repair kit
- Earplugs and a changing poncho for windy mornings
- No board? Fine — boards rent easily in the village
Clothing
- Light layers: days are warm, ocean evenings get breezy
- A windbreaker or hoodie for offshore mornings
- Flip-flops plus one pair of closed shoes for rocky paths and hills
- Normal streetwear for village walks — beachwear stays on the beach
Health & documents
- Passport valid 6 months; most EU, UK and US visitors get 90 visa-free days
- Travel insurance that actually covers surfing
- Small kit: painkillers, rehydration salts, plasters, motion-sickness tablets for day trips
- Type C/E plug adapter — Morocco runs on 220 V
Money & practical
- Cash in dirhams — many cafés and taxis are cash-only; ATMs in the village and Agadir
- An unlocked phone for a local SIM or eSIM (Maroc Telecom, Orange, inwi)
- A small daypack for day trips
- A reusable bottle — buy big water bottles locally rather than drinking tap water
