Tamri
Edit SpotAbout
Not worth going unless nothing else works. Mainly because the locals are a pain in the ass.
Atmosphere:
If it's flat everywhere around south Morroco, head for Tamri and there'll always be at least 1m/3ft, but the spot gets a bit dangerous over 2,5-3m because of the rips that take you offshore. Also the waves are hard to get when it's bigger. You will need a bigger board.
Additional Info:
Be careful about the kids at the parking who try nabbing things from you! Realy be careful...they are also agressive... espessialy when the're with more the 5 or so. Don't pay them more than 5 Diram.
