The Story Behind Salt House Morocco

Salt House Morocco is a locally owned and operated surf camp in Tamraght, founded by Yazid, a local of Agadir with a deep connection with the ocean, surfing and hospitality.

Yazid started surfing at age 10, growing up near the waves of Taghazout Bay. By 22, he was coaching and building a professional career in the surf industry, gaining experience as a surf guide, host, and logistics manager. With a Master’s degree in Tourism & Hospitality, Yazid founded Salt House Morocco in September 2017 to offer an authentic Moroccan surf experience.
