The first Taghazout Surf Expo in 2022 created important synergies between local tourism, represented by establishments such as Riad Dlim, and international surf industry players such as Girl on the Wave.
It has also brought two women entrepreneurs together, creating business opportunities that have led to over 100 customers coming to Tamraght, generating a positive socio-economic impact for the region and ensuring the sustainability and growth of local businesses.
This partnership goes beyond simple business relationships, as it enables each party to benefit from the other’s expertise, fostering mutual excellence through the development of new services, the improvement of accommodation infrastructures, and the optimization of surf lessons offered to Girl on the Wave’s customers.
These collaborations raise Tamraght’s profile on the international surfing scene, encouraging women and investors to discover and exploit the region’s potential. Their success will be showcased at the third Taghazout Surf Expo as part of the “Wave of Success” program.
