Surf is so cool! Thank you to Ayoub & Mohamed:) Friendly and professional, Mohamed taught us the basics of surfing. Despite it being the first time surfing for most of us, it was great fun and we felt so safe with Mohamed helping and supervising us. Thank you for helping us catch the best waves:) This place is highly recommended!

First surfing experience, and it was truly amazing. The instructor was incredibly knowledgeable and, above all, very patient with us, even though we were just beginners. Surfing in the ocean in Essaouira, especially in February, was truly captivating and an experience I'd repeat. We paid €30 for an hour, which I think was fair. Highly recommended!

It was our first time experiencing the surfing in Esaaouira when we found Nenea walking around the city. With the first approach we’ve felt already that there was a really good vibe from the other side and really honest with us. They weren’t trying to sell us their course, they were actually trying to give us the best experience. So we decided to book the class for the next day when there was better swell to have a better surfing experience. We had the class with Hasan who stayed always attentive and very helpful giving us good advices. It was my second surf class and he spotted exactly where I could improve and what I was getting wrong from the very first moment. Next time I’m around Essaouira I’d definitely contact the guys in order to keep enjoying with very nice people around.
