SIGHTS AND ACTIVITIES IN MOROCCO
If the waves take a break, or you feel like getting to know the area outside the water, you will always find something new to discover and experience around Tamraght and Agadir. Like to plan ahead? You can book some of the activities directly with your surf camp. Would you rather decide spontaneously? No problem! We organise many of the activities ourselves, and you can always jump on and join.

Henna Workshops
Every Saturday evening we transform our riad into a henna studio. Henna tattoos, also known as mehndi, are skin decorations made of henna paste. Unlike a permanent tattoo, the henna colour fades over time and disappears completely. At our henna workshop, you can try out your creativity and paint your hands and feet. The traditional body art symbolises luck, protection and health – everything you need for your holiday!
Participation in the workshop costs 15 €.
