About Anchor Point
Anchor Point is a surf spot just north of the village of Taghazout on the Atlantic coast of Morocco, and it is usually said to be the best known wave in the country. The wave wraps around a rocky point and runs to the right as a surfer rides it towards the shore, and it is often described as long and fast, with several sections before it reaches the bay. A road runs above the point, and it is also where people watch from. The origin of its English name is not settled. The best surf commonly arrives in the northern winter, typically from around September to March, when Atlantic swells reach Morocco. The rocks and the length of the ride lead many to describe it as a wave for confident surfers, and it is usually crowded when a swell arrives.
