Essaouira - Combined Surfing & Kitesurfing holidays
The aim of the combined kitesurfing and surfing holiday for beginners is to give you a safe and fun introduction to both boardsports. At the end of the sessions you will have learned the fundamentals of both surfing and kitesurfing and you can decide which one you prefer and would like to pursue further.
The Kitesurf/Surf combo allows you the flexibility to kitesurf when there's good wind and surf when there's no wind. Experienced surfers or kiteboarders might like to have a go at learning either surfing or kitesurfing while over in Essaouira fuelling their primary addiction. Be warned both surfing and kiteboarding are addictive!
Beginners: Taster surf course & taster kitesurfing course.
Intermediate & advanced: Various Surf & Kite clinics available
Experienced: Combined surf & kitesurf equipment rental packages
Who's it for? People who want to be in the water every day no matter what the conditions.

We can cater for just about any level and combination of surfing, windsurfing and kitesurfing, contact us for more information.
