Surflessen voor beginners in Essaouira

Destinations: Essaouira · Duration: 2.5 hours · Difficulty: Easy · Group size: Up to 10

Essaouira’s wide, forgiving bay is one of the finest places in Morocco to stand up on a surfboard for the first time. The sandy bottom, mellow whitewater and steady side-shore wind create a safe, confidence-building playground for total newcomers.

Your lesson starts on the sand with the essentials: reading the ocean, paddling technique, the pop-up and staying safe. Then you head into the shallows where your instructor pushes you into your first rolling waves and cheers every wobbling ride.

With small groups and a high instructor ratio, nobody is left floundering. Most first-timers are riding whitewater to the beach by the end of the session, grinning from ear to ear and already asking about the next lesson.
