    [READ EVERYTHING BEFORE SENDING US A MESSAGE]

    Welcome to our surf house. We are located in Tamraght, a village in the Taghazout bay in Agadir - Morocco.

    For years we have been running a place that has become a meeting point for new and experienced surfers, as well as people who value contact with the sea and a comfortable home with great energy and delicious food.

    Your help as a volunteer would be very welcome. More than chores and to-do's, our workexchange is about time dedicated to keeping our Moroccan family home working efficiently and happily.

    We appreciate hearing from everyone who is willing to write to us and apply for volunteer positions. However, it is important to read the profile in full before sending us messages and to follow the instructions below:

    * Subject: Write the type of vacancy (YOGA / SOCIAL MEDIA/ GENERAL POSITION) + Period available in the subject line of the message.

    * Message: Be succinct, describe your profile, why you want to volunteer with us and what your main skills are for the position.

    We'll try to reply to everyone, but sometimes it's difficult because we receive so many messages. Don't be disheartened if we don't reply to your message immediately. It's mostly because the position you ask for is taken at the moment or that you can`t come at the dates you request. But plans can change, people leave earlier with short notice etc. and we will get back to you when we see that your skills are needed.

    IMPORTANT: If you're looking for a great Surf House just to enjoy surfing, please DO NOT APPLY and take a look at our packages on our website. We would be delighted to welcome you as a guest.
