What does a day at a surf camp in Morocco look like?
If you’ve ever wondered what a day at a surf camp in Morocco feels like, we’ve got you covered. At VIPI Surf Retreats, located in the heart of Tamraght, life is all about catching waves, connecting with like-minded people, and fully immersing yourself in the ocean lifestyle.
Here’s a typical day with us:
8:00 – 10:00 AM: Slow Mornings & Nourishing Breakfast
We start the day with a relaxed, healthy breakfast on our rooftop terrace. Fresh fruits, Moroccan mint tea, pancakes, and local specialties prepare you for the day ahead. This is the moment to check the surf conditions, chat with the instructors, and mentally prepare for the waves.
11:00 AM: First Surf Session
After breakfast, we head out for the first surf session of the day. Whether you’re a beginner learning to stand on the board for the first time, or an advanced surfer improving your technique, our local instructors are there to guide you.
We carefully select the surf spots depending on your level and the daily conditions. Tamraght, Taghazout, and nearby beach breaks offer consistent waves for all abilities.
1:30 PM: Lunch at the Beach
We believe in staying connected with nature—so we keep it simple. A homemade lunch right on the beach fuels you up for round two. Think wraps, fresh salads, and seasonal fruits, all while enjoying the salty breeze.
2:30 PM: Second Surf Session
After a short break, it’s time for the second surf session. This is where you usually feel the most progress: you’ve already warmed up, your body remembers the morning’s lessons, and you start to flow with the ocean.
5:00 PM: Return to VIPI Surf Retreats
After the second session, we return to the camp. This is your time to relax—whether that means chilling by the pool, reading a book, or taking a nap before dinner.
7:00 PM: Dinner & Community Vibes
Dinner is a shared experience. We serve a variety of Moroccan and international dishes, always fresh and homemade. It’s the perfect time to unwind, exchange surf stories, and connect with new friends from around the world.
Tuesdays Are a Little Different
On Tuesdays, we change the rhythm:
Morning surf session only
Afternoon Surf-Skate Session: Practice your surf movements on land, improve your balance, and refine your technique in a fun and playful way.
If you like, you can also book additional yoga sessions to stretch out, recover, and calm the mind.

Safe Space Feeling: Our retreat is a place where everyone—no matter the level, gender, or age—feels welcome.
Local Expertise: Our instructors grew up surfing the Moroccan coastline. They know the ocean and teach with patience and passion.
