Internet in Taghazout

In M-Lab's open speed tests within 25 km of Taghazout, half came in above 13 Mbps download and 3 Mbps upload, and the fastest quarter of lines above 47 Mbps.

That's 1,438,914 download tests from September 2025 to September 2026.

The typical figure counts every line, cheap and mobile ones too; a fiber line in a good apartment or coworking space is closer to the fastest quarter.

Cost of living in Taghazout

One person spends about $1,305 a month in Taghazout, with a furnished place to stay:

WhatA month
A furnished studio or one-bedroom$801
Groceries$225
Eating out$76
Utilities and phone$61
Public transport$38
Leisure$104
Total$1,305

The rent is estimated from Morocco's housing prices, as Inside Airbnb doesn't cover Taghazout.

The rest is what a one-person US household spends (the Bureau of Labor Statistics' 2024 survey), at Morocco's prices for each (the World Bank's 2021 price comparison).

Coworking, insurance and flights come on top.

No open air quality station is within 25 km of Taghazout, so these are estimates from Copernicus's CAMS air model for the surrounding area (an 80 km grid, 2023 to 2025, CC BY 4.0), adjusted to what stations measure elsewhere.

Take them as a guide: the model can be well off in big cities, and a measured figure replaces it once a station opens.

Is Taghazout safe?

The US State Department rates Morocco Level 2 ("Exercise increased caution", updated 2025-04-21), the same level it gives France, Germany, the UK and Spain.

Levels 1 and 2 are both everyday travel; the US only asks you to reconsider a trip at Level 3.

Some advisories raise the level for parts of a country, so read the full advisory before you book.
