Safi

Safi Province, Morocco
🪨Rocks🦔Urchins

Safi is Morocco's best-kept secret—a collection of world-class right-hand point breaks that rival anything in the more famous Taghazout zone, but with a fraction of the crowds. The industrial fishing port backdrop may lack the charm of southern Morocco's surf villages, but the waves more than compensate. Long, mechanical walls peel along the rocky points, offering extended rides and genuine quality when Atlantic groundswells light up the coast. For those willing to venture beyond the well-worn Taghazout path, Safi rewards with uncrowded perfection.
