Surfing Boilers
A right reef in Boilers & Tamri, Morocco, for intermediate and advanced surfers.
Boilers is a fast right reef near Cap Ghir, about 25 minutes north of Taghazout. It's named after the rusty boiler of an old shipwreck that sits on the reef and marks the takeoff.
It's one of the most consistent waves in the area and picks up more swell than Taghazout. The takeoff is steep and the wave is quick, with hollow sections on good days. The rips are strong and the reef is rocky, so it's for confident surfers.
It's one of the first places to check when the swell is small around Taghazout, because it picks up more than the bays to the south. In winter the north wind can blow it out by midday, so go early.
There's nothing at the spot itself, so bring water and food. Most surfers come up for the day from Taghazout or Tamraght, often combined with Tamri, a beach break a few minutes north.
