I enjoyed my stay at Magrid the surf camp, but the place is quite chaotic. Youssef is friendly, yet not very organized, so it's not ideal if you need a clear schedule. We were also supposed to have a washing machine, but there wasn't one. On the bright side, the atmosphere was fun and relaxed, and volunteers get free surf sessions and activities, which was a huge plus. If you're flexible and don't mind some disorganization, you'll have a good time here.

I didn't get breakfast everyday, only on days with group trips. So food wasn't always provided. The laundry machine was broken so got to a point where I had to pay for my own laundry. The hostel was dirty for the first 10 days. I was told I would be taken to surf for 10 days and it never happened. Understandably there were no guests but I was never informed when the staff were going. The organisation wasn't the best, we would get updates for the upcoming day after 1am. Unable to answer due to being asleep. Tamraght is beautiful tho :)
