Cancellation & Refund Policy
Effective Date: 19/04/2025
Company Name: Taghazout Surf Souls
Website: https://taghazoutsurfsouls.com
Jurisdiction: Applicable under Moroccan Law with respect to international consumer protection principles, including the EU Consumer Rights Directive 2011/83/EU.
1. Purpose
This Cancellation and Refund Policy (“Policy”) governs the terms and conditions under which customers may cancel bookings and receive refunds for services provided by Taghazout Surf Souls (“Company”, “we”, “us”, or “our”). This Policy is designed to comply with fair business practices and consumer protection legislation in the European Union and Morocco.
2. Scope
This Policy applies to all bookings made via our website, third-party platforms, email, or direct contact for services including but not limited to:
- Surf camp packages
- Accommodation bookings
- Surf lessons and yoga sessions
- Excursions and other scheduled activities
3. Legal Framework
Pursuant to Article 16(l) of EU Directive 2011/83/EU, the right of withdrawal does not apply to leisure activities if the contract provides for a specific date or period of performance. As such, the general 14-day cooling-off period does not apply to bookings made for specific dates at Taghazout Surf Souls.

- Government travel restrictions or advisories
- Transportation strikes or airport closures
- Global health crises (e.g., pandemic outbreaks)
8. Partial Use of Services
No partial refunds shall be issued for unused services once a package has commenced (e.g., missed lessons, meals, or excursions due to personal choice or travel disruptions).
