Last updated: 22 August 2026

1 Booking, Deposits & Payments

  • Reservation & Deposit To secure a spot in any kitesurf camp or package, a deposit (typically 30% to 50% of the total amount) is required at the time of booking.
  • Final Balance The remaining balance must be paid upon arrival (in cash or via approved local payment methods) or online prior to the start of the camp.
  • Accepted Payment Methods Bank transfers, credit/debit cards, or cash (USD, EUR, or local currency based on exchange rates).

2 Cancellation & Refund Policy

  • Cancellations by the Client
    • 30+ days prior to arrival: Full refund of the deposit, minus any applicable bank transfer or administrative fees.
    • 14 to 29 days prior to arrival: 50% refund of the deposit, or option to reschedule for a future date within the same calendar year.
    • Less than 14 days prior to arrival / No-shows: The deposit is non-refundable.
  • Cancellations or Changes by the Management In the rare event that we must cancel a camp due to unforeseen circumstances, clients will be offered a full refund or an alternative date.

3 Weather & Wind Conditions (Force Majeure)

  • Wind Policy Kitesurfing is a weather-dependent sport. While we choose locations with high wind reliability, we cannot control Mother Nature.
  • No-Wind Alternatives If there is insufficient wind for kitesurfing, we pivot to alternative activities (such as surf coaching, stand-up paddleboarding, or cultural excursions) to ensure you get the most out of your holiday.
  • Refunds for Weather Due to pre-booked accommodations and committed instructor schedules, no partial refunds are issued for days with unsuitable wind or weather conditions.

4 Safety & Student Requirements

  • Swimming Ability All participants must be comfortable swimming in open water.
  • Health Disclosure Guests must inform us of any medical conditions, injuries, or physical limitations prior to booking.
  • Instructor Authority Instructors reserve the right to suspend or stop a lesson if a student acts recklessly, disregards safety instructions, or poses a danger to themselves or others. No refunds will be provided in such cases.

5 Equipment Rental & Damage Policy

  • School Gear Equipment provided during lessons (kites, bars, boards, harnesses, impact vests, and helmets) is checked regularly.
  • Liability for Damage Students and independent renters are responsible for school equipment assigned to them. Excessive or negligent damage caused by failing to follow instructor guidelines may incur a repair or replacement fee.
  • Loss of Gear Any loss of equipment due to negligence in the water will be charged at market value.

Pour notre toute première expérience en surf, Le minuteur est top. Très bonnes explications et très attentif à nos postures pour qu’on arrive bien à surfer. Merci

Me and my friend really wanted to take a surf lesson while in Essaouira and as total beginners with no previous experience we somehow wandered to this place and were able to immediately book a lesson for the afternoon the same day! For 25€/person, you get 2 hours of surfing, all the equipment and an amazing instructor. Amine was really great and we want to sincerely thank him for his patience. When back in Essaouira, we will definitely come back for more surf lessons!

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!
