Picture the beach in the morning: sand still cool, the wind just starting to fill in, a line of boards waiting by the school. That is where most of our lessons start. Essaouira's bay gives us steady side-shore wind and forgiving waves, which is exactly what you want when you are learning, and plenty to play with when you are not.
Surf lessons, all levels
Beginners get a step-by-step introduction: reading the ocean, paddling, the pop-up, and standing on a wave, usually by the end of the first session and definitely by the third. If you already surf, our intermediate and advanced coaching focuses on positioning, wave selection and technique.
- Private lessons for fast, personal progress
- Group lessons for the shared energy
- Lessons for kids and family packages
Boards, wetsuits and everything else are included. Bring a swimsuit and sunscreen; we take care of the rest.
Kitesurf and wingfoil
Essaouira is one of the best places in Morocco to learn kitesurfing, and the wind makes it a natural spot for wingfoil too. Our kite courses run from the very first steps (wind window, kite control, body drag) to water starts, riding upwind and, later, tricks. Every instructor is IKO certified and stays on the radio with you in the water.
Curious about wingfoil? We start on the beach with the wing, move to the water on a big board, and get you up on the foil once the balance clicks. Most people are surprised how quickly it comes.
- Private lessons for the fastest progression
- Semi-private for two friends sharing an instructor
- Group lessons if you like learning with others
