Surf lessons with family
Very good surfing session! There were 8 4 adults and 4 children. Loan of quality combinations and adapted boards. Small trailer arranged and closed to leave things. Small shower on water reserve to sand your feet after! Perfect!👍

Perfect Family Surf Experience
We had a wonderful surf experience with Moncef as our instructor. We were a family of eight , and the school kindly provided an additional assistant instructor to help manage the whole group, which made the lesson even better and safer. Moncef was patient, encouraging, and very professional, adapting the session to everyone’s level. The lesson was well organized, fun, and a great experience for both adults and kids. We all enjoyed it a lot and would definitely recommend Moncef, especially for families wanting to surf together.
Operator response
Thank you very much for your thoughtful review. We are delighted to hear that your family enjoyed the experience with Moncef and that the additional instructor helped make the session safe and enjoyable for everyone. We truly appreciate your recommendation and hope to welcome you again in the futur

Kite Foil Lessons
Came to Essaouria as a competent kite surfer but looking to learn how to wing foil. Had been recommended by a friend and expectations were far exceeded. One-to-one lessons with Ayoub and Hamza were amazing and after 12 hours on the water I’m well on the way with my wing foil journey. A team that not only know their stuff but who make the whole experience fun and unforgettable. Thanks guys and will definitely be telling people to seek you out.

You don't want to miss this!
I had an unforgettable time with KiteLife Watersport school! The whole experience was fun, relaxed, and full of laughter. The surf lesson was fantastic – the boards were in perfect condition (practically new!), and the instruction was both professional and encouraging. After the surf session, we enjoyed a beautiful picnic on the beach, complete with a delicious tajine and traditional Moroccan atay. It was the perfect way to end the day, soaking in the views and sharing great moments with everyone. If you're looking for a surf school that offers not just excellent lessons but also a warm and welcoming atmosphere, this is the place to go. Highly recommend!
