Erfoud to Taghazout, the comfortable way.


Erfoud to Taghazout is 665 km by road — roughly 8h05 in a private car by way of Tinghir, Ouarzazate and Taroudant. Almost everyone comes to surf — a week at a surf camp, yoga above the waves, or the right-hand point breaks in winter swell, and the drive in is part of the story.
Who makes the Erfoud to Taghazout trip
Why this trip? Erfoud is the gateway to Merzouga, so departures are often the return from the desert. As for Taghazout, almost everyone comes to surf — a week at a surf camp, yoga above the waves, or the right-hand point breaks in winter swell. Few people make this 665 km crossing in one go, and we would rather say so plainly: it is booked by travellers who have a fixed flight or hotel at the far end and would rather cover the distance in one private day than stitch together buses and grand taxis.
The road from Erfoud to Taghazout
West of Erfoud the road crosses the pre-Saharan plain, past the khettara irrigation wells and Tinejdad's oasis, to Tinghir. West of Tinghir the N10 passes Boumalne at the mouth of the Dades gorge, the rose town of Kelaat M'Gouna and the Skoura palmery into Ouarzazate. West of Ouarzazate the N10 crosses the high Siroua plateau through Tazenakht, known for its carpets, and Taliouine, Morocco's saffron capital, before descending into the Souss valley at Taroudant. West of Taroudant the N10 runs through the flat Souss valley, lined with orange and banana orchards, to Agadir. North of Agadir the N1 runs along the ocean through Anza and Aourir — the 'Banana Village' roadside stalls — before the first surf villages appear. Good places to break the drive: the Dades gorge at Boumalne, the rose valley at Kelaat M'Gouna and the Skoura palmery.
Arriving in Taghazout
Taghazout is a former fishing village 20 km north of Agadir that has become Morocco's surf capital, with point breaks like Anchor Point and Killer Point and a newer resort development, Taghazout Bay, just south of it. The old village is a tangle of steep lanes; many surf houses are reached on foot from the main road. Tell us your camp's name — drivers know where each one meets guests.
Should you split the journey?
At 8h05 this is a full day in the car. We run it in one day for anyone who wants that — with breaks every two hours or so — but many travellers prefer to split it. The natural halfway point is Ouarzazate: Ouarzazate is the classic overnight on the way to or from the desert. Book two one-way legs and the driver meets you again the next morning.
Before you go
Once you are in Taghazout, Imsouane's long right-hander is 45 minutes further up the coast. Surf season is October to April; summer is flatter, warmer and busier with Moroccan families. The return leg, Taghazout to Erfoud, has its own page and the same per-vehicle pricing.
