Tifnit
Tifnit is a small fishing village south of Agadir where the waves are often empty and the beach stretches for miles. The break offers fun peaks along a sandy beach, with particularly long rides at low tide. The village has maintained its traditional character, with fishermen still using the old methods. A great escape from the busier Taghazout area.
