If you’re looking for a less crowded place to learn to surf in then Sidi Ifni is a great choice. Situated 170km south of Agadir, Sidi Ifni for many surfers is an undiscovered gem.
Because the nearest airport is Agadir which is a 3 hour drive away, Sifi Ifni surf camps well may remain out of the mainstream for years to come. Unlike in Taghazout there are not that many Sidi Ifni surf camps.
It has 10 notable beach, reef and point breaks dotted north and south of the town of Sidi Ifni. From excellent learning waves at Legzira beach and Legzira bay to the gnarly point break at Tetrapods, Sidi Ifni has a wave for everyone. On this page you’ll find comprehensive information on the best Sidi Ifni surf camps.
