Paradis Plage Surf Yoga & Spa Resort
Experience all the magic of Morocco on a luxury yoga and surf retreat
Reading time: 3 minutes
Just five minutes from the laid-back fishing village of Taghazout in a region blessed by warm sunshine on the Atlantic coast lies Paradis Plage Surf, Yoga & Spa Resort — an ideal beachfront destination in which to relax and rejuvenate. Paradis Plage offers a unique experience combining yoga, surfing and fitness with an indulgent spa experience. This unique combination of disciplines has proven to be effective for achieving total relaxation and rejuvenation of mind, body and spirit.
Green Key certified for six years in a row, Paradis Plage is a sustainable resort that enjoys an average of 340 days of warm sunshine a year. Located on a beautiful three-mile sandy beach and set among seven acres of tropical gardens, it offers a laid-back atmosphere in which to relax and fully recharge. From September to April, the region has a constant swell behind its world-famous waves, making it exceptional for surfing.
At Paradis Plage, there’s a traditional Moroccan approach to wellness, combining natural ingredients from local organic farms with gentle pampering rituals. The best Moroccan products are used with natural active ingredients, harvested with careful respect for the environment. These ingredients go hand in hand with the spa’s care rituals for the best results — orange blossom, citrus, eucalyptus, shea butter and black soap are just some of the products used in treatments.
This is the first hotel in Morocco to combine an equal commitment to yoga and surfing. The idea of combining these two disciplines has been carefully considered — yoga prepares and restores surfers who need all their energy and concentration when they’re out battling the waves, and the two disciplines aim to achieve the perfect balance of body and mind. Both beginners and experts will find programmes suited to their fitness levels.
