5-Day Travel Itinerary for Tamraght, Morocco

Planning a 5‑day stint in Tamraght, Morocco? This itinerary outlines the best surf spots, cafés, day trips, and beach escapes for a perfect coastal getaway.

Here’s a little hard and fast Tamraght travel itinerary for those who want to maximise their time in the village. Chop and change it as you wish. Note that all of the activities are totally doable without a car.

I suspect that Tamraght’s not for everyone. While tourism to the surf town is booming, with new surf camps and restaurants popping up each time you blink, I still think it’s a bit of an acquired taste. It’s got less of a social atmosphere than Taghazout. Less of a cut-and-paste vacation to step into it, more of a DIY situation. You’ve got to work a little harder to find your own fun in Tamraght.

For those of whom Tamraght appeals to, I can guarantee five days in the town won’t be long enough. But if that’s the only window you’ve got for a little Moroccan surf adventure, let it be your amuse-bouche. Get a taste for the place and start planning your next long-term African hideaway.

This 5-day Tamraght travel itinerary has all the flavours covered to whet the appetite. For those lucky enough to have limitless days in Tamraght (90 max, I’m afraid) simply use this itinerary to schedule in some structured fun, and pad out the rest with languid hours in the sunshine.

5-Day Tamraght, Morocco Travel Itinerary

Day 1 – Beach, Sunset & Tagine

• Arrive at Agadir airport. You can catch a taxi directly from the airport to your accommodation in Tamraght. It’s a set price of 300dh (€30), plus 20dh (€2) for each piece of luggage. For more details, see this full post on catching taxis from Agadir airport.

For alternate transport options, see this guide on how to get to Tamraght.

• After settling into your hostel or apartment, I recommend heading straight down to Devil’s Rock, Tamraght’s most popular beach. You can grab a coffee or a bite to eat at Surfing Cafe 14, have a swim and enjoy the chaos. It’s probably one of your best bets for meeting people in town, too.
• Enjoy your first Moroccan sunset from the rooftop of your accommodation (a non-negotiable when booking). And for dinner, head to Timam du Chef for a tagine.

See my recommendations for the best hostels in Tamraght.

Day 2 – Yoga, Surf & Skate

• Start your day with good intentions with a yoga class overlooking the water at Ocean Tribe.
• Then fuel up with a big, nourishing breakfast at Let’s Be Healing cafe. Their Berber omelette is particularly good.
• Head back down to the beach to surf. Devil’s Rock, Crocos and Banana Point are all surf spots within walking distance of the town centre. For surfboard rentals and lessons, you can visit Surf Maroc, Devil’s Rock Surf Shop or Imouran Surf Association. All are located down at Devil’s Rock.
• For a post-surf snack, grab some msemen from Chez Mimoun.
• In the early evening, catch a taxi to Taghazout and hike the short goat track up the hill to the skatepark to watch the sunset.

See this post for a full guide to Taghazout skatepark.

• For dinner, grab a couple of kefta sandwiches from the barbecue street carts. Or check out this list of the best restaurants in Taghazout for something a little more substantial.

Day 3 – Coffee, Souk & Hike

• Start your day with a coffee and park up for some people-watching at one of Tamraght’s trendiest cafes – Daydream or Hey Yallah.
• Then hit up one of the local markets. I’m going to hazard a guess that one of your days in Tamraght will fall on a Sunday, Tuesday or Wednesday. On Sundays, Hey Yallah hosts the Coolshe market; a hub of local artisans and creators selling their goods. Tamraght holds its community market on Tuesdays. And for a bigger souk experience (with great second-hand clothes shopping), check out Anza’s souk on Wednesdays.

See my Tamraght shopping guide for info on all three markets.

• Spend the rest of your afternoon at the beach. Whether that’s surfing, playing beach volleyball or just some full-throttle maxo relaxo time with a cup of mint tea in hand.
• To get the best view of the sun setting over the ocean, I recommend hiking up the mountain behind Tamraght. It’s far less strenuous than it sounds. See details on how to get there.
• If your accommodation has all the necessary paraphernalia, now’s a good time to try your hand at cooking a tagine at home. This beef and raisin tagine is incredible. Or opt for the kefta tagine if you’re a little more time poor.

Day 4 – Moroccan Brekky, Paradise Valley & Sundowner

• If you haven’t already, treat yourself to a full Moroccan breakfast at Le Petit Kawa or La Paniére.
• Then take a trip out to Paradise Valley for the day. Jump in the freshwater pools, laze on the rocks, and grab lunch at one of the restaurants. I’ve detailed all transport options here, but if you don’t have a car, I recommend booking a tour with GetYourGuide. They’re good value for money.

• If you’re feeling a little jazzy, head into Taghazout for the evening and grab a drink or two. I recommend Munga for a more laidback social vibe, or Dfrost for something a little boujier.

See details on how to get from Tamraght to Taghazout.

Day 5 – Hammam, Trinkets & Chill

• For your last day, hit up your new favourite coffee spot. Then treat yourself to a hammam and a massage. Make sure you’ve made a booking in advance.

Check out the list of hammams in Tamraght, plus a few necessary words of warning.

• Make the most of your last afternoon on Morocco’s surf coast with another surf or beach hang. Or for a little change of scenery, grab a skate lesson at one of the local skateparks.

See this post for recommended skate instructors.

• Then hit up The Ocean Nomad and Abdul’s Carpets for some last-minute handicraft shopping.
• Followed by a trip out to Timlalin dunes to watch the sunset. And a bit of sandboarding if you’re keen. Again, the easiest way to get to the dunes is with GetYourGuide.

Safi.
