Description of this activity

Halfway between Agadir and Taghazout, Aourir—also known as Banana Village—is a coastal village renowned for its simple, welcoming atmosphere. Here, life revolves around the ocean, small local markets, and cafés overlooking the waves. Less touristy than Taghazout, Aourir appeals to travelers seeking authenticity and more laid-back surfing sessions.
The introductory session takes place on Aourir Beach or in the immediate vicinity, depending on the day’s conditions. The spot is popular for its gentle waves and sandy bottom, ideal for a smooth introduction to surfing. Starting in the morning, you’ll encounter fishermen, local surfers, and families who’ve come to enjoy the coastline, all in the relaxed atmosphere typical of Morocco’s Atlantic coast.
After being welcomed on the beach and receiving your equipment, a safety briefing explains how the spot works and covers the essential rules. The instructors then go over the basics: stance on the board, balance, reading the waves, and your first take-offs in the whitewater. Learning happens step by step, with everyone progressing at their own pace, guided by attentive instructors.
Very quickly, the first rides happen, amid bursts of laughter and encouragement from the group. A break then allows you to catch your breath facing the ocean, exchange impressions and tips, or simply admire the coastline. After the session, Aourir invites you to extend the experience: fresh juice in the village, lunch by the sea, or a relaxing moment on the beach. A beginner’s surfing lesson here is as much a sporting adventure as it is an immersion in the daily life of a Moroccan village facing the Atlantic.
