7 Days Formula Yoga and Surf Camp in Tamraght, Morocco
Surf Camp and Yoga Retreat Morocco
Yoga has proved its efficiency on the body and soul for centuries and is a great complement to surfing. Many pro surfers practice it on a daily basis to improve their concentration, flexibility, and physical abilities to paddle longer and surf better. It also helps your muscles recover faster after an intense day of surfing. The aim of the yoga classes is to be very accessible to beginners and for people already practicing it to focus on the most useful asanas for surfers.

Spa treatments
Massage
Experience the pleasure of a one-hour massage with Argan oil. Argan oil comes from the Argan tree, found mainly in the southwest of Morocco, between Agadir, Essaouira, and Taroudant, and around Tindouf, in Algeria. Widely used in traditional cooking, it is also used for its beneficial cosmetic properties, as it is rich in vitamin E and antioxidants.
Traditional Moroccan hammam
This oriental ritual that originates from Roman times is a staple in the lives of Moroccans. The baths are both a social meeting place and a place to relax, enriching both the mind and body. This is an experience you should not miss while you are in Morocco.
The hot steam dilates blood vessels and helps the body to relax. Rough skin floats away, toxins are eliminated, muscle pain alleviated, and stress released. It is perfect after a day of surfing.
