SURF RETREAT MOROCCO: ALL-INCLUSIVE WEEKS IN IMSOUANE

Fixed weekly all-inclusive surf camps on one of Morocco’s longest waves. From the moment you land at Agadir or Essaouira, we handle everything — you just bring your swimsuit. Every Saturday a new group arrives, strangers who leave as friends.

7 Nights, Surf, Yoga, Meals & Transfers

Come for the waves,
stay for the people

Olas isn’t a hotel with surfboards. It’s a home by the ocean, where the rhythm is simple: wake up, share breakfast, go surfing, meet good people, eat well, laugh a lot, and fall asleep tired in the best possible way.

You don’t need to be experienced. You don’t need to arrive with a group. Many guests come alone and leave with new friends. We keep groups small so instructors can actually follow your progress — the spirit we protect every day:

Day By Day

A Typical Week
at Olas

No two weeks are ever exactly the same — the tides change, the waves change, the people change. But one thing never changes: the feeling you’ll have by the end, that seven days somehow felt much longer in the best possible way.

DAY 1

Saturday

Welcome to Morocco

The drive to Imsouane is the perfect introduction to Morocco — small villages, endless coastline, argan trees and beautiful landscapes before reaching our little surf town on the Atlantic Ocean. After checking in, settle in, meet the group, enjoy dinner together and watch your first sunset over the bay. Tomorrow, the adventure begins.

DAY 2

Sunday

Your First Waves

Fresh coffee, homemade breakfast and the sound of the ocean set the tone. After meeting your instructors and getting your equipment, it’s time to head to the beach — whatever your level, we’ll find the best conditions for you. Expect laughs, a few wipeouts and hopefully your first wave, or your best one yet. The afternoon is yours: back in the water, explore the village, or relax on the rooftop. As the sun sets, a yoga session slows things down before another homemade dinner.

DAY 3 – 7

monday – friday

Eat, Surf, Relax, Repeat

Every morning has its own rhythm, shaped by the tides and the day’s conditions. Our instructors adapt every lesson to the surf, helping you improve while making sure you’re having fun — and your board stays with you after the lesson. The rest of the day is yours: keep surfing, wander the village, relax at a café, or unwind on the rooftop with a mint tea. Along the way, a video analysis session helps you progress faster, and our photographer captures your best moments. Evenings end with dinner together and stories from the day.

DAY 8

Saturday

See You Again

It’s hard to believe only a week has passed — the faces that were strangers on Saturday now feel like old friends. You’ll probably surf better than when you arrived, and you’ll definitely leave with a camera roll full of memories. After breakfast, we’ll take you back to Agadir or Essaouira Airport. A place you’ll want to come back to.

Optional Experiences

Discover More
Than Surfing

While surfing is at the heart of everything we do, Morocco has so much more to offer. We’ve selected a few optional experiences that let you discover the landscapes, culture and traditions that make this part of the country so special.

The day also includes a horseback ride along the beach and a delicious lunch before returning to camp.

Enjoy a scenic walk through the valley, relax by the water, take a refreshing swim and experience a completely different side of Morocco. Lunch is included before returning to Imsouane in the afternoon.

Custom Trips on Request

Have a special request, a place you’d love to visit, or planning to explore more of Morocco before or after your stay? Just let us know — we’d be happy to help you organise a personalised experience.

Timlaline Dunes

Surf is only half the story

At Olas, the waves are only the beginning. Picture golden afternoons spent chasing dunes at Timlaline, sand slipping beneath your board while the ocean glows on the horizon. Picture evenings around a crackling bonfire, mint tea in hand, laughter drifting into the night as strangers become the kind of friends you carry home with you. This is more than a surf camp. It's a feeling. From the moment you arrive, our team is here to make you feel welcome, seen, and completely at ease, the kind of people who remember your name, your favorite corner of the terrace, and exactly which wave made you smile. We believe holidays should feel effortless, full of spontaneous adventures and quiet moments that stay with you long after the tan fades. Sliding down desert slopes, sharing stories under the stars, or simply soaking in the slow rhythm of Imsouane, every day here is designed to bring you joy. Good vibes aren't something we advertise, they're something you'll feel in every sunrise, every shared meal, every unexpected friendship. So come for the surf, but stay for everything else. At Olas, we don't just host your holiday. We make it unforgettable.

Getting Here

Getting to Morocco

“Is it easy to get to Imsouane?” The answer is yes. Thanks to the growing number of direct flights to Morocco from across Europe, you’ll find plenty of direct connections to Agadir and Essaouira — the two closest airports to Olas Surf Camp. From there, all you need to do is relax, we’ll take care of the rest.

Departure
Agadir (AGA)
Essaouira (ESU)

Agadir (AGA) — Our Pick

The widest range of direct international flights, including a seasonal non-stop from Montreal with Air Transat. About 2 hours from camp.

Essaouira (ESU)

A smaller, quieter airport just 1h30 from camp — a great alternative if it serves your city.

Marrakech

A popular gateway if exploring Morocco beyond the camp. Transfers aren’t included but we can arrange one on request.

Airport transfers from Agadir and Essaouira are included on arrival and departure days — just send us your flight details.

Super hostel à Imsouane ! Je devais initialement rester 3 nuits, j’ai finalement prolongé mon séjour de 2 nuits et je serai bien resté encore plus longtemps … merci à Mohamed et son staff de rendre ce lieu si chaleureux et incroyable (mention spéciale pour les petits dej et dîners) ! Et merci à Amine pour les cours de surf, toujours dans la bonne humeur !

Faltan estrellas para valorar a este lugar. Para los fans de la magia, estáis de enhorabuena, este es vuestro lugar. Podría pasarme horas hablando maravillas sobre el equipo, pero lo reduciré dándoles las gracias por haberme hecho sentir como en casa, en familia, desde el primer momento. Ahora no es un sentimiento, es una realidad, una parte de mi se ha quedado para siempre en olas. Las habitaciones compartidas son un lujo dentro de la más extrema simplicidad. Podrás descansar si lo necesitas, pero muy probablemente sea el lugar donde hagas tus primeros amigos, compartan confidencias y donde se reservan las últimas risas del día. El desayuno es excelente, te mantiene con energía y lleno hasta casi la cena, cena que también es excelente si tienes la dicha de degustar los platos del chef! Aunque sin duda, lo mejor de las cenas, es el momento de sentarte en comunidad, charlar, conocerte y despedir dulcemente el día rodeada de gente buena y con suerte, un poco de Gnaoua. Sabagurouh !!! Llegué a este lugar buscando la poderosa energía de rodearme de personas que quieren construir y formar parte de algo, y me fui (solo a medias) con el corazón repleto, la memoria llena de recuerdos que necesito meses para procesar y la ilusión de que este comentario traiga a personas que quieran experimentar lo mismo que yo. Lleguen con la mente abierta y dispuestos a cuidar el alma de este lugar. Mohamed, Islam, Rachid, Moncef, Aissa ( y todos los que cada día haceis posible que la magia siga ocurriendo ) gracias por esto tan bello que habéis creado, por compartir vuestra energía con los guest y por existir! Mi casa es vuestra casa :)

I stayed at HolaSurfCamp for 3 nights (I wish I had stayed more) and it was absolutely incredible. It’s so much more than just a hostel – it truly felt like a family. The staff are super friendly, always helpful, and create such a welcoming vibe. The people I met there and the moments we shared were unforgettable and really filled my heart. Every evening we gathered on the beautiful terrace to play guitar, sing, and have dinner together – such a magical atmosphere! A big shoutout to the chef as well – the food was amazing! If I could give more than 5 stars, I would. This place is unforgettable and I can’t recommend it enough! 🌊

Quel merveilleux accueil à Olas! De loin mon auberge préférée du voyage, en tant que femme seule je m’y suis tout de suite sentie très à l’aise et en sécurité. Mohamad et toute l’équipe sont adorables et toujours là en cas de besoin. Il y est facile de rencontrer du monde, l’ambiance étant hyper conviviale! Les dortoirs sont propres et agréables, rien à redire c’était vraiment un superbe séjour!

Olas Sneak Peek

Life at Olas

Infos about the region

Why Imsouane ?

There are plenty of places to surf in Morocco.
Taghazout is lively.
Tamraght is growing fast.
Essaouira has its own charm.
But there’s something about Imsouane that keeps people coming back.
Maybe it’s the pace of life.
Maybe it’s the endless waves.
Or maybe it’s the feeling that, for a little while, you’ve escaped the rush of everyday life.
Tucked away on Morocco’s Atlantic coast, halfway between Agadir and Essaouira, Imsouane is a small fishing village that has quietly become one of the world’s favourite surf destinations. Unlike larger tourist towns, life here is simple. Fishermen head out at sunrise, surfers check the tide before breakfast, cafés overlook the ocean, and sunsets are never rushed.
It’s the kind of place where shoes become optional, watches stay in your backpack, and the biggest decision of the day is whether to paddle out for one more wave.

imsouane surf bay Morocco perfect waves

Come for the Waves. Stay for Everything Else.

The surf may be what first catches your attention.
But it’s the sunsets, the people, the slower pace of life and the feeling of belonging that make Imsouane unforgettable.
Spend one week here, and you’ll understand why so many of our guests don’t just leave with better surfing, they leave with memories, friendships and a reason to come back.
