The first light hits the Atlantic off Agadir and the shoreline answers with a steady pulse of peelable waves. You step from a low-slung hostel onto wind-scoured sand, board underarm and guide in hand; the ocean dares you forward, the current confident but manageable for novices. Days here move between coached lineups, communal breakfasts, and late afternoons watching Taghazout’s cliffs turn bronze.
