Listen to the waves, tame the moment: introductory surfing stays in Taghazout , between sea and silence, at Villa Riad Caramel

There are places where the wind seems to whisper promises of elsewhere. Villages suspended between sky and sea, where time slows down, where we return to ourselves, carried by the surf. Taghazout, in southern Morocco, is one of these. A former fishing haven turned surfers' haven, this village with its rugged charm offers travelers a gentle escape between wild nature and vibrant culture.

What if, for the duration of a stay, you came to experience the movement of the waves, to learn to read them, to love them, to glide with them as we learn to dance with life?

Welcome to Villa Riad Caramel, your home away from home, for an introductory surfing stay like no other.

Surf & yoga stays in Taghazout: where the waves tell stories

Here, the sea is never far away. It watches over, breathes, sings. In Taghazout, it is the soul of the village. It shapes daily life, punctuates the hours, and attracts travelers from all over the world who come to reconnect with what matters most.

The waves are generous, sometimes gentle, sometimes powerful, always lively. They welcome beginners with patience, and reward the most daring with unique sensations: the glide, the freedom, the suspended moment.

It's in this vibrant setting that we offer you a respectful, joyful, and caring initiation. No pressure here, just the simple desire to let yourself be carried along, to learn to listen, to fall, to get back up, and to savor each step forward.

An introduction to surfing, but much more

Our surf and yoga retreats in Taghazout are more than just a technical lesson. They're an invitation to fully experience the present moment, to reconnect body and mind, and to reconnect with play, breath, and silence.

Accompanied by passionate and experienced instructors, you'll discover the basics of surfing on suitable beaches, in a friendly and reassuring atmosphere. Each session is designed as a time for exploration, without judgment, with a smile as the only goal.

And to extend this state of grace, Villa Riad Caramel offers daily yoga sessions, gentle or dynamic, depending on your body's needs. A way to release tension, embrace fatigue, and celebrate the energy of life.

Villa Riad Caramel: a setting between sea and light

Perched on a hillside overlooking the Atlantic Ocean, Villa Riad Caramel welcomes you with an atmosphere blending understated elegance and Moroccan charm. The light-filled rooms open onto terraces where you can gaze at the sunsets barefoot, sipping mint tea.

Here, everything invites you to relax:

A peaceful swimming pool, surrounded by greenery and silence
A lounge open to the outside, for late afternoon reading
A traditional hammam and wellness area are available just 5 minutes from the riad, to free your body from tension.
Homemade, healthy, local and tasty cuisine, designed to nourish as much as it delights

An inner adventure to the rhythm of the sea

This stay is a journey both external and internal. An encounter with the ocean, with your breath, with that part of you that still dreams of freedom.

It's also a break, a parenthesis where we forget about screens, schedules, and obligations. Where we laugh with strangers who have become companions, where we learn to listen to each other, to trust each other, to celebrate movement and stillness.

Who is this stay for?

To you who have never set foot on a board, but secretly dream of it. To you who feel the call of the open sea, without knowing where to begin. To you who are looking for a place to breathe, move, slow down. To you who wish to live a sensory and human experience, far from the noise, close to the heart.
