Anchor Point is widely considered the best right-hand wave in Africa and one of the most famous surf spots in the world, but it is firmly an advanced-to-expert wave. It has three main sections: the peak, a second section ideal for advanced surfers, and a third section that stays challenging depending on swell size.

Banana Point is a separate, more advanced corner on the Aourir coast, distinct from the Banana Beach K11/K12 peaks. The bottom mixes sand and rocks, the point is protected from wind, and good swells create a clean right-hander that peels along the rocks.

Anza is a fun, versatile wave zone with multiple peaks that works for beginner-intermediates through advanced surfers depending on swell size. It offers more room than the crowded headline spots and is a solid option when Taghazout points are packed.

Banana Beach focuses on the K11 and K12 peaks at Aourir Beach. In local naming, K-numbers indicate the approximate distance from Agadir. K11 is usually the best call for true beginners, while K12 is better for beginner–intermediate surfers.

Spiders sits near the corner of Banana Point and is best for good to experienced surfers. With the right tide and swell, this wave offers fast, hollow sections and real tube-catching potential.

Camel around Imi Ouaddar is a playful option with changing peaks across sand and reef sections. It is a solid progression spot on medium swell and a useful alternative when the Taghazout headline points are crowded.

Tamri is a wild, powerful beach break about 30 minutes north of Taghazout. Multiple peaks run along a wide stretch of sand, with more space and less crowd than the headline spots further south.

Crocodile, often called Croco locally, is a playful setup on the Tamraght stretch that can offer mellow walls and user-friendly shoulders on the right swell.

Devils Rock is one of the most practical all-round surf options near Tamraght. It offers sandy-bottom peaks with a friendlier paddle-out than the heavier points and can suit beginners, improving intermediates, and mixed-level groups.

Agadir refers to the city-beach peaks along the long boulevard and marina stretch. It is a useful backup when the northern reefs are too big, too windy, or too heavy.

Boilers is a rocky reef break known for steep, hollow take-offs and fast, powerful waves. It breaks over sharp reef and works best on medium to large swell.

La Source is an ideal beginner spot on this coastline. This mellow sandy-bottom wave breaks in a sheltered bay and offers consistent whitewater for learning the basics.

Killers near Boukana is an expert-only right-hander that appears in regional spot maps. It can get heavy on larger swells and is generally considered a secondary option compared with the more commonly targeted Taghazout and Aourir breaks.

Panoramas is a powerful, versatile wave. Depending on swell and tide it can break both right and left, with punchy sets on bigger days. It can get hollow and offers great opportunities for sharp turns and floaters.

Hash Point is the classic Taghazout wave for everyday surfers. It is a mellow, consistent right-hander that works on many swell sizes. Softer than Anchor Point with a friendlier take-off and longer rides over reef.

Mysteries is a beautiful reef break that only comes alive with the right swell, tide, and wind. In prime conditions it breaks fast and hollow over shallow reef with real barrel potential for experienced surfers.

Imsouane is a magical fishing village north of Taghazout and home to Africa's longest wave. The Bay is a 900-meter right-hander that is mellow and consistent for all levels. Cathedral is the more powerful outside reef for advanced surfers.
