Our story
Salt House Morocco
Born from a mix of the surf culture and Moroccan hospitality, Salt House Morocco is all about surfing the Moroccan way, we set up goal to offer an alternative of the regular boot/surfcamp formula, we go with the tides and the swell and we offer so much more than Surf & Yoga, our vibe, people, knowledge and authenticity with a a dash of exclusivity and attention to details, are the core of Salt House Morocco.
We pride ourselves as being one of the rare 100% locally made and runned surfhouses in Morocco, Taghazout Bay, after years of accumulating experience and knowledge, September 2017 marked the debut of Salt House Morocco, created with the sole aim of preserving the Moroccan values of hospitality & authenticity, with strictly homemade Moroccan cuisine, insourced local produce and a special care to each guest in particular, in addition to showing our people what our coastline can offer with varying the surf and discovery trips, keeping the number of guests to a maximum of 11so the surf groups are smaller and adequate, therefore keeping a more intimate relationship with everyone who steps into Salt House Morocco.
Our motto
We have to live and love in such a way that others will wonder why and how we do it, and when they notice and ask we will have an answer for that and it will be the Sea & Moroccan Hospitality.
