Surfing Hash Point
A right point in Taghazout, Morocco, for intermediate surfers.
Hash Point is the small right point in front of Taghazout village, close enough to check from the cafés. It works best at low tide on a north-west swell and is smaller and slower than Anchor Point.
The bottom is rocky, so it's better for surfers who can already turn and pick a wave. On bigger days it's a less crowded alternative to the main point, a few minutes' walk away.
It's a good place to warm up on your first day in Taghazout, or to surf when Anchor Point is too big or too crowded. At higher tides it gets slow and fat, so the hour or two around low tide is usually best.
Everything is close: the village, the cafés on the terraces above the beach and the surf shops are a two-minute walk away.
