The wave
Panoramas is a beach and reef set-up at the south end of Taghazout, with lefts and rights. It's one of the more consistent spots in the area and works best around low tide.
There are rips and some rocks, so it's not the easiest beach for a first lesson, but improvers use it a lot. In summer it's often flat. Several surf camps and cafés are right above the beach.
