Imsouane is growing in popularity every year with more hostels, restaurants and surf shops opening all the time. The village still retains its laidback and authentic charm - which some visitors liken to the Taghazout in the 60's and 70's.

There are two main spots for surfing in Imsouane:

  1. La Cathedrale, a beach break spot
  2. La Bay, a point break spot.
