Anchor Point

The break.

Right pointIntermediateMixed

Taghazout

A long right under the cliffs north of Taghazout. Anchor Point is the wave people mean when they say Morocco. It holds a north swell and runs down the point in sections. The town is still a fishing town with surf camps stacked on the hill. The wind will try to ruin the afternoon.

When.

November to March

North Atlantic swell in winter. A clean morning before the wind is the classic.

Worth knowing.

1. 1. Walk the point and pick a section. You do not have to take off at the top if that peak is a zoo.
2. 2. The inside can get shallow on the drain. Watch a set from the rocks first.
3. 3. Panorama and the bays toward Tamraght are the neighbours if Anchor is maxed or blown.
4. 4. Winter is the window. Summer is smaller, still rideable on the right bank, not why you flew.

Go.
