A certified instructor explains the basics on the beach, then you have two sessions of about two hours in the water, with a lunch break between them. It is a great sea day after the desert on the 6-day Agadir, Anti-Atlas and desert tour, during the Morocco birdwatching tour or near the Essaouira day trip from Marrakech.

Frequently asked questions

Can I learn to surf in one day?

Most beginners stand up on the board on the first day. To improve more, a few days in a surf camp in Taghazout is ideal.

Is the water cold?

The Atlantic is cool all year. The wetsuit we provide keeps you warm.

The price is tailor-made and depends on the group size and transport. Ask us on WhatsApp or design your trip.
