New this winter: four Ryanair routes into Agadir

Ryanair announced four new Agadir services for winter 2026/27. A first-season route has no schedule history, so confirm the operating days before you build a surf week around one. Every departure city we cover is on the flights hub.

What to book, in which order

How the coast works in winter

North-west groundswell of 0.9–2.5 m turns the points on: Anchor Point, Killer Point and Boilers work best from November to February on long-period swell, while the beaches at Tamraght, Panorama and Devil’s Rock keep lessons running on the same days. Sea temperature drops from about 21 °C in October to 17 °C in February; a 3/2 full suit covers the season.

Winter 2026/27 questions

When is the winter surf season in Taghazout?

October to March. The point breaks are most consistent from November to February on north-west groundswell, and March is the last reliable point-swell month before the water starts warming again.

How cold is the water in winter, and which wetsuit?

Sea temperature runs from about 21 °C in October to 17 °C in February, the coldest month. A 3/2 full suit covers the whole season; some people add boots for long point sessions.

Is Christmas and New Year busy?

Yes. The crowd level is very high from 20 December and moderate before that; January stays high in the water but quiet on the beach. Book lessons and stays for those weeks early.
