Anchor Point, Taghazout surf guide

The wave. Anchor Point is a right-hand point break over rock and sand, a short drive from the center of Taghazout. After a tight, steep takeoff, the walls can run up to 500 meters on a good day. It handles swells of 2 to 3 meters.

Who it suits. It suits intermediate and advanced surfers, and big winter swells belong to the experienced. Beginners do better at the beginner breaks around Tamraght, to the south.

Medians from years of hindcast, not a forecast (how we read the hindcast). Water temperatures come from an offshore model grid, which reads a little warm on an upwelling coast. More on the break in the Morocco guide. Head to head: Taghazout vs Imsouane.
