Introduction to wave riding
Since we all have to start at some point, the 2 clinics of July and August are dedicated to intermediate windsurfers who want to get out on their first waves.
Embark on a unique experience ! By joining our clinic, you’ll discover some of the best spots in the Essaouira region while learning much more than just windsurfing moves. Boujmaa will be glad to share with you his experience and his passion for the ocean, guiding and assisting you on your wave ride, helping you pushing your limits on the water.
Riding the ocean is more than a sport, it is a source of inspiration and learning. A connection to nature and to ourselves. It’s about challenging and pushing our limits.
July 4th to 13th, 2024
Flexibility: if these dates don’t fit in with your schedule, let us know and we’ll do our best to offer you a suitable package.
For intermediate riders who wish to get introduce in the waves.

You can arrive whenever you like and start with a free session to discover the spot and the gear.
The opening meeting will take place at 5pm at Kaouki Karma Surf.
Coaching :
Coaching will happen 5 days out of 9. We will choose days with the best weather conditions.
Each coaching day, you’ll have 2 sessions led by Boujmaa, including 1 hour filmed.
And you’ll have 1 hour of video debriefing the next day before heading back out.
On your free days, you are free to go riding and put into practice what you’ve just learned, or to visit Essaouira and surrounding areas. We’ll be there to give you all the advice you need to make the most of your stay. No need to know how to jibe, you can learn it during the week.
Closing evening: Friday 12th
No wind day : we’ll always find a way to go in the water : surf, SUP, wingfoil or windfoil.
Windsurfing in Sidi Kaouki is super fun with spots adapted for all levels, from down the line wave sailing to amazing free riding.
Everyday we’ll move to the best spot according to the weather conditions, from Essaouira Bay to the river mouth, south of Sidi Kaouki beach.
Essaouira Bay offers easy waves for all levels.
Taguenza offers great beginners friendly wave sailing conditions even when the waves are 2m high you still have a flat area to get going and approach the waves at your pace.
Jorf is a down the line option, it is a reef break with a nice peeling right which is our favorite spot in winter and springtime.
Marabout is another peeling right, the wall holds up for long top to bottom rides.
Main break is a nice beach break with an open face at high tide, but closeouts when tide is low.
River mouth is a spot with a nice little right breaking into a channel and another right and left peak which has the biggest waves of the area.
