WINDSURFING HOLIDAYS 2008

Deutsch | English | Turkish

Essaouira, Morocco

 

Essaouira is well-known as one of the world's most reliable spots for winds. Many kitesurf pros come to Essaouira to train.

In summer, beginners' courses are held from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m., when the wind is not so strong. The bay of Essaouira is ideal for kitesurfing: There is no current or reef and the sandy beach stretches for 3 kilometres. There are no separate kitesurfing and windsurfing zones, as there is plenty of room on the water.

A special feature of Essaouira is the fact that this spot offers both flat water and waves.

Advanced kitesurfers and windsurfers can ride at spots further to the south such as Mouly Bouzarktoune and Sidi Kaoki. Our Club Mistral centre also organises trips to these spots.
