Tamri: The Consistent Beach Break

Morocco’s Most Reliable Beach Break

There’s something special about Tamri.

I’ll never forget the first time I pulled up to this stretch of coastline just north of Taghazout, endless sand, peeling waves, and zero crowds. No aggressive lineup politics, no overpriced surf camps, just raw Atlantic swell and the kind of consistency that makes surfers like me want to stay forever.

If you’re looking for a Moroccan surf spot that delivers every single day, this is it.

What Makes Tamri So Good?

1. It Works When Other Spots Don’t

Ever had one of those trips where you check the forecast every 10 minutes, praying for swell? Tamri doesn’t play those games. Thanks to its open exposure, it picks up any swell direction, meaning there’s almost always something rideable.

Winter (Nov-Feb): Heavy, powerful waves,sometimes double overhead. Not for the faint-hearted.

Summer (June-Aug): Mellow waist-high rollers perfect for longboarding or teaching a friend.

Shoulder seasons (Spring/Fall): The Goldilocks zone,head-high, clean, and ridiculously fun.

2. A Wave for Every Skill Level

I’ve brought first-timers here who caught their first green wave, and I’ve seen pros get barreled on the same day. The beach break shifts constantly, so you’ll find:

Lefts and rights (no fighting over the "good peak")

Sand-bottom waves (safer than reef breaks)

Empty lineups (yes, even in peak season)

3. No Crowds 

Taghazout has its charm, but between the surf schools and Instagram influencers, it can feel like a zoo. Tamri? Maybe five people out on a good day. The locals are chill, the vibe is pure, and you won’t get dropped in on every wave.

4. Wild, Untouched Morocco

No fancy resorts here, just a wide-open beach, argan trees, and goats wandering the hills. If you want the real Morocco (and not just a surf tourist bubble), this is it.

When to Go

Best for Experts: Winter, when the NW swell lights it up.

Best for Beginners/Intermediates: Summer or early fall.

Secret Tip: Dawn patrol is magic—glassier waves and no wind.

What You Need to Know

✔ Bring a fish or groveler – On smaller days, you’ll want something floaty.
✔ Respect the locals – Fishermen and a few dedicated surfers call this place home. Keep it friendly.
✔ Watch for rips – The current can sweep you down the beach fast. Paddle out near others until you get the lay of the land.
✔ Stay in Taghazout or nearby – Tamri itself is remote, so base yourself close by for food/amenities.

Why I Keep Coming Back

Tamri isn’t the most famous wave in Morocco, and that’s exactly why I love it. No hype, no crowds, just surf. If you’re tired of battling for waves at packed breaks, this place feels like a gift.
