About this Spot

Mystery Point is a surf spot located in South Morocco, Morocco. This spot is known for its right-hand point break, with a bottom composition of rocks and sand. The waves here are suitable for surfers of all levels, offering a regional classic quality with a wave length ranging from 50 to 150 meters. The best time to surf at Mystery Point is during the winter months when clean groundswells from the northwest are most prevalent, and offshore winds blow from the northeast. The spot can get crowded, so it’s important to check the surf etiquette and ensure the spot matches your skill level before paddling out. At low tide, the reef is exposed, and as the tide comes in, the reef starts to break, creating a sucky, ledgy take-off. The take-off spot is relatively small, about the size of a small car. Access to the spot requires a short walk from the town of Taghazout, and caution is advised when walking down the cliff due to the presence of broken glass. Parking is available near other surfers, which is recommended for camaraderie and security. Mystery Point is also a great spot for campervans, although the ground is not ideal for tents. Respect the locals and enjoy the surf responsibly.
