1,130 surf camps and surf hostels found across 16 African countries — 82% of them in Morocco

Asked:
“Give the list of all the surfcamps/hostels in africa”

A broad live-web scan on September 15, 2026 surfaced 1,143 candidate surf-focused accommodation records across 19 extracted location labels; removing 13 records assigned to Spain, the Canary Islands, or Fuerteventura leaves 1,130 candidates in 16 sovereign African countries, drawn from 203 independent source hosts. No authoritative Africa-wide registry exists, so “all” cannot be guaranteed: this is a comprehensive directory of discoverable candidates, not an official census.

Scope: only accommodations whose extracted name or stated type contains “surf” — surf camps, surf hostels, surf lodges, surf houses, surf resorts, and surf stays — not every ordinary hostel near a beach. Some records may be aliases, historical listings, or the same property under two locality spellings, and surf lodging opens and closes often.

Where the candidates are

Morocco alone holds 932 of the 1,130 records (82.5%) — mostly clustered around Taghazout, Tamraght, and Imsouane — more than ten times runner-up South Africa. luwatu.com
South Africa (76) and Senegal (37) lead the rest; West Africa also shows Ghana (12), Liberia (6), and Ivory Coast (3). surfsleeprepeat.com
Six countries have five or fewer candidates — Liberia, Ivory Coast, Angola, Kenya, Mauritius, and Tunisia — thin coverage that may reflect discoverability as much as reality. nomadsurfers.com
Coverage is well distributed: 203 independent hosts back the scan, and the single largest source URL accounts for 132 of 1,143 records — under 12%. surfsleeprepeat.com
