Ben Achir Yassni
More than 30 years of surf knowledge, rooted in Awrir.
With more than 30 years of surfing experience, Ben has developed a personal understanding of the Moroccan Atlantic coast, its local breaks, access points, tides, wind, wave direction, and changing conditions. He is shaping Tiguert Surf Guide around a genuinely local approach to surf travel. The experience combines owner-led surf guiding, a local guesthouse environment, Moroccan food, practical daily transport, and the freedom to adapt each day according to the ocean.
Rather than following a fixed schedule or taking guests to the same spot every day, Ben evaluates the conditions and chooses the most suitable option for the group. The decision may depend on the swell, wind, tide, wave quality, crowd, access, safety, and each surfer’s actual level.
The service is intended for intermediate and advanced surfers who already have some independence in the water and want to improve their surfing while discovering the Moroccan Atlantic coast with someone who knows the local breaks personally.
Tiguert Surf Guide is not designed as a large standardized surf camp. It is a smaller, more personal experience built around local knowledge, honest communication, flexible surf days, and a comfortable base in Awrir village.
