Amazing!
It was a really great surf lesson! It was just the two of us and the surf instructor, and he really tailored it to our difference experience levels. We had a lot of fun and both of us wished we would've had time to take even more lessons! I definitely recommend!

Very interesting
I highly recommend this place, staff is so friendly and kind, Redouane welcomed us, he is so helpful and gives you all the details about the activity ( he makes love surf and kite-surf ) a very passionate guy !
About the surf session itself, Ismail lead this one, beside the fact that he is a very nice guy 💪🏼, he teaches us very well, and keeps an eye on you until you get your first wave and support you ton continue.
If you are visiting Essaouira, its a must do, to visit Atlanticzin, just call Redouane, next will be easy.
These guys made me in deep love with surf, planning to visit them as soon as i can.

Amazing experience and great price
First surf lesson and managed to stand up within 2 hours. Gave us time at the end to surf on our own as well which was great. Made me feel like I was almost a real surfer.
Experience was made perfect by the great instructor. Also had second staff who comes to take pictures so you don't have to worry about having pictures of this experience. All in all amazing experience and at great price. Would recommend to everyone.

Best school you’re ever gonna find.
This school is the best you’re ever going to find. Reduoan himself is a pro surfer and he always dreamed to have a school himself. He achieved his dream and made sure that the teachers he welcomed in his school are from the same quality as he is. The teachers that learned me to surf are Zine and Imad. I couldn’t have wished for better teachers as these surf wizards. They learned me to stand, turn and the theory of the current and the waves. As I only have surfed for 8 days in my life they made me progress with a real secure feeling. Besides of the surfing adventures these people became friends for life. I would advise everyone that wants to learn surfing to go to this school.

Welcoming, dedicated professionals
Couldn’t have wished for a better first-time surf experience. This surf school manages to create a most welcoming environment, from communication and customer-service to dedicated, knowledgeable teachers. As odd as this may sound but after 3 days, Atlanticzin felt like family.

Perfect beginner lessons!
We visited Essaouira in November for three days of Surfing beginner lessons. The instructor Zin was very patient and professional and at the same time fun and cool to hang out with. The whole staff was very nice, helpful and chilled. All in all a perfect experience for surfing beginners.
Thank you so much!
