LOCATION & GETTING HERE

LOCATION

About 100 years ago, the surf house owner’s great-grandfather founded this village.

At that time, he lived as a nomad and traveled each day with his goats, moving from place to place. When he discovered this spot, he fell in love with it and decided to stay. He began with a simple tent and, little by little, built a large stone house to create a home for his children.

 

The village name, Moknari, comes from “Aknari,” which means cactus. The area used to be full of cactus plants, and when the great-grandfather came back from the market by public transport, he would ask the driver to stop “by the cactus.”

 

The camp is located in Moknari, a small and quiet Berber village between Taghazout and Imsouane. The village belongs to the camp’s family, so you get a more personal and authentic experience of local Berber life and Moroccan hospitality.

With the ocean, desert, and rolling hills all around, it’s a great base for a surf trip focused on quality waves, outdoor adventures, cultural experiences, and real connections—away from crowds and mass tourism.

feeling at home

"I've been in Moknari Village with my son Leonardo and my doughter Gaia at the end of November. "Come as a guest and live like a family" is not just a motto or a payoff, it' s the truth, a real way of living, you can feel part of their own family, you can feel it in every moment. Hicham and his family are highly sweet and helpful, they took care about us, we felt completely comfortable in every moment of the day. They always put us our own ease trying always to offer us the best things according to our tastes. They carried us to many interesting and amazing places. We deeply dipped in Moroccan culture by listening to their stories and by experiencing Argan Oil making. We really love their Village with the amazing view. We made a full immersion in Moroccan tasty cuisine!! I discovered I'm really fond of it!!! And what sayng about waves? Great surfing sessions in the best spots in the world!! We'll never forget friendly Hicham, crazy Boba and the whole family!! Leonardo is already planning to come back........in March!!!! Alessandra"

Paradise

"I stayed with Hicham and his family for 5 days. After 1 year of busy work and studying in England, I found the perfect paradise to forget about the stress of the city and technology. We went to the Paradise Valley to swim, I learned how to surf and I enjoyed the amazing food that his family prepared. Also, I got to know his family and seriously, they are all amazing people. If you are searching a place to feel like home, not even hesitate, you need to go to the Surf House!The place is really interesting, as there are only 12 houses, and only 50 people live in there (and they are all family). Also, they have many goats, sheeps, chickens and turkeys, among argan trees, which they extract the argan oil in an artisan way.Sukran Hicham!"

great

"a great experience in a great family with the opportunity to go in many great places to surf."

Eat like King

"Stayed with Hicham and his Family for five days beginning of October. You'll feel welcome from the very first moment, eat like a king and surf without crowds right in front of the village. There's amazing surf everywhere around; consistent waves at Tamri beach and famous spots such as Boilers, Dracula and Killer Point are all in driving distance. Hicham drove us around to surf, showed us old villages and other spots and took perfect care of us. This is what a surf trip is all about! Thanks for an awesome trip Hicham!"
