Not just a retreat..
Salty Sisters Morocco is a women-only surf retreat based in the Taghazout region, close to the traditional villages of Aourir and Tamraght, where a well-established surf scene meets whitewashed houses, mountain views and some of the most reliable waves on the Moroccan coast.
You'll be joining the wider Salty Sisters community- a trusted, supportive network of like-minded women, welcoming everyone no matter their starting point. Come on your own or bring your girls; either way, you'll find yourself surrounded by ladies cheering you on, both in the water and out of it.
Whether you're stepping onto a board for the first time or working on wave selection and positioning, our small-group coaching is adapted to you- no competitive atmosphere, no pressure, just genuine progress at your own pace. And if you want to take it further, this retreat can double as your ISA Level 1 Surf Instructor Course too- it's entirely up to you what you want the week to be.
Our Morocco retreat is built around daily surf coaching, yoga and mobility sessions, a Moroccan breakfast each morning, and shared meals that bring the whole group together around the table.
You’ll stay in a stylish surf house above the ocean, with an infinity pool, sociable shared spaces and terraces looking straight out over the Atlantic- the kind of base that makes it just as easy to relax as it is to get in the water.
Come solo or bring a friend: this is a small, supportive group built for connection, with space to rest whenever you need it and plenty of local adventure- from Paradise Valley to sunset surf sessions- when you don’t.

The Area And Surf Spot
This coastline has waves for every level. Anchor Point and Boilers offer classic, long right-handers for more experienced surfers, while Banana Point and the beach breaks around Tamraght are ideal for building confidence and catching your first green waves.
Between sessions, Aourir's souk, beachfront cafés and Tamraght's surf-and-skate culture are all within easy reach — giving you the full flavour of Morocco's surf coast without ever straying far from the water.
ISA Surf Instructor Course
Run over 2 days alongside your retreat, the course covers everything you need to safely teach beginner and early intermediate surfers- from instructor safety and equipment to coaching methods, skill progression and programme planning- combining practical time in the water with structured theory sessions.
The ISA Level 1 is the global industry standard for surf instructors and opens the door to coaching work at surf schools worldwide. Whether you're a gap-year traveller, a career-changer or simply want to formalise years of experience in the water, you'll finish the course ready to teach- guided by a woman who's built her own career doing exactly that.
ACCOMMODATION
Sea View Double Room: A comfortable double room looking straight out over the Atlantic, with stylish, authentic Moroccan interiors throughout.
Shared & Twin Rooms: Comfortable room options for those travelling with a friend or happy to share, with the same warm, welcoming style as the rest of the house.
The infinity pool, shared lounge, terraces and on-site gym are all part of daily life at the retreat, giving you plenty of space to socialise or simply switch off.
Basic info summary
ACCOMMODATION (summary)
Stay in a stylish Moroccan surf house above the Atlantic, with sea-view double rooms and comfortable shared options, all built around an infinity pool and welcoming communal spaces.
MEALS
Mornings start with a relaxed Moroccan breakfast- fresh bread, fruit, juices and amlou- enjoyed together before the day’s activities begin. Shared food experiences are woven through the week too, giving the group a chance to sit down together and enjoy local Moroccan flavours as part of the retreat itself.
SURF LESSONS
Coaching here is designed to help you enjoy the ocean, understand the conditions and build confidence at whatever pace feels right for you.
Whether you’re a complete beginner working on pop-ups, stance and balance, or a progressing surfer refining your wave reading and positioning in unbroken waves, sessions are chosen around conditions, safety and the experience of the group- with plenty of time simply to practise and enjoy being in the water.
Want to take it further? This week can also be your route to an ISA Level 1 Surf Instructor Course, run alongside the retreat. Whether you’re here purely to relax, reconnect and surf, or ready to turn that passion into a qualification, it’s entirely up to you what you want the trip to be.
SURF EQUIPMENT
Suitable surfboards and wetsuits can be arranged as part of your retreat package, matched to your ability and the conditions on the day.
CAMP ACTIVITIES
Yoga and mobility sessions give you time to stretch, move and recover between surf days, and the infinity pool and shared terraces are where the group naturally gathers in between.
Paddling out together is where the Salty Sisters spirit really shows- cheering each other into waves, celebrating every small win, and building the kind of friendships that carry on long after the trip ends.
The on-site gym is available for anyone wanting to keep active, and with a small, hosted group throughout, there’s always support close by- along with plenty of space to enjoy quiet time on your own terms.
