About the Activity
What to Expect
Experience a particularly personal and unique surfing experience in beautiful Essaouira! Our surf lessons are perfect for all levels, whether you are a beginner or have some experience. We offer particularly personalised support through one-to-one coaching, ensuring you make rapid progress and have a lot of fun. The lessons take place on the Essaouira Beach or the Essaouira Second Beach, where the conditions are ideal for learning and improving your surfing skills.
Upon arrival at our surf school, you will get to know the surf instructor and receive all the necessary equipment. Our facilities include changing rooms where you can comfortably prepare for your lesson, and you can store your personal belongings either at the surf school or in our van. The total duration of the lesson is about 2 hours, with 1 hour and 30 minutes spent in the water.
The course program is designed to make you feel confident and excited about surfing. On the first day, we will talk about your previous surfing experience and start working on basic skills if you are a beginner, or refine your techniques if you have some experience. Over the following days, with the personal support from our instructors, you will continue to work on your individual skills, ensuring rapid progress and a secure, enjoyable experience.
