Essaouira as a Surf Destination

Essaouira sits on Morocco's Atlantic coast and is one of the country's most consistent surf locations. The beach stretches for several kilometres, and the Atlantic swells provide waves suitable for beginners learning the basics.

The town is also known for strong winds — particularly in the summer months — which makes it a renowned windsurfing and kitesurfing destination. For surfing, spring and autumn tend to offer more manageable conditions for those just starting out, though sessions run year-round.

Sea and wind conditions vary significantly by season and day. Always check conditions before your session and follow your instructor's guidance on the water.

What to Bring

  • Swimwear
  • Towel
  • Sunscreen — the Atlantic sun reflects off the water
  • Water — stay hydrated before and after your session
  • A change of clothes
  • Any personal medication if needed

All necessary surf equipment is prepared and fitted at the beach before entering the water.
