Moroccan Travel Essentials
- First and foremost, get travel insurance with SafetyWing. They’re super affordable and one of the few companies that let you buy insurance mid-trip.
- Book the dreamiest Moroccan abode on Booking.com. They’re my go-to for accomodation because you can save loooaads with their loyalty discounts.
- Or if you’re after the one-stop-shop, BookSurfCamps is the best place to find surf camp packages in Morocco.
- Find the best local tours with GetYourGuide. It’s the easiest way to visit places like Paradise Valley or Timlalin Dunes.
- Make sure you’re connected as soon as you get off the plane with Airalo’s Moroccan eSIM.
- Set up a Wise travel card to save on international transaction fees.
- And if you’re working online (or want to watch Netflix in your downtime) I highly recommend getting set up with a SurfShark VPN.
And you’re sorted.
Walk
Perhaps not practical for every village-to-village mission, but the walk between Taghazout and Tamraght is totally doable. And super enjoyable. There is a corniche (boardwalk) that runs along the coast from Devil’s Rock in Tamraght to Panoramas Beach in Taghazout. It’s 5km long and takes about an hour to walk, not including the stops to pat stray puppies and take leisurely swims. I recommend the stroll at least once during your visit.
Cost: Walo.
Taxi
With almost as many taxis as private cars traversing the roads on the Moroccan surf coast, catching taxis between Tamraght and Taghazout is the most popular transport option. The taxi rank in Taghazout is unmissable, located in the centre of town beside Taghazout Tajine Palace. In Tamraght, just post yourself anywhere along the main road and hail down a passing taxi.
There are three different taxi options, varying in price. Below is a breakdown:
Private Taxi
The steepest taxi option is private. These are the Grande taxis (big yellow and white ones), differing from collective taxis only in that you pay for the whole car and have the luxury of a ride all to yourself. If you’re travelling with a large group, it works out economically, but as an individual, you would be wasting your money.
A private taxi between Taghazout and Tamraght should cost between 50dh and 100dh (€5-€10). But expect to barter.
Collective Taxi
If you’re travelling Morocco on a budget, collective taxis are the way to go. Rather than forking out the whole car fare, you pay per person and share the ride with anyone else travelling in that direction.
Confusingly, there’s no outward way to differentiate a private taxi from a collective. They both take the form of the Grande type. Just ask the driver, “Collective?”, if the seven faces staring at you from the back seats haven’t already made it obvious.
Collective taxi fare: 5dh (€0.50)
Berber Taxi
I don’t know if I should be advertising Berber taxis at all, as I’m unsure of the legality of them. But if you’re trying to catch a taxi between Tamraght and Taghazout, you’re sure to come across one.
Berber taxis are unmarked sedans or panel vans, usually with lacey curtains and fluffy dice tastefully adorning the dashboard. In Taghazout, they park beside the fish kebab vendors. In Tamraght, they will likely stop for you if you’re waiting on the main road. Don’t fret, it’s not someone trying to kidnap you – they’re legit (ish). As with collective taxis, Berber taxis split the cost between all passengers.
Note that the authorised taxis in Taghazout don’t condone the Berber taxis. So the Berber taxis tend to go about their business a little more discreetly.
Berber taxi fare: 5dh (€0.50)

Bus
Catching buses in Morocco is super simple and affordable. There are two local buses that traverse the route between Tamraght and Taghazout. Bus L32 runs from Place Salam in Agadir to Taghazout village. Whereas, bus L33 travels from Agadir, through Tamraght and Taghazout, all the way to the northern village of Tamri.
There are multiple bus stops on the main road in Tamraght, the most central of which is located in front of Villa Azur (the big terracotta surf house with overgrown cacti). In Taghazout, the buses park at the southern end of the village in front of Taghazout Tajine Palace. You can expect a bus every 20 minutes between 7am and 7pm. Tickets can be purchased from the driver.
Bus ticket: 7.5dh (€0.75)
Easy.
