Surfing course in
Kaouki Karma Surf
Recently built by Boujmaa Guilloul. After many years of welcoming windsurfers to Moulay Bouzerktoune beach, north of Essaouira, and promoting windsurfing there, he decided to launch a multi-sport surf club on Sidi Kaouki.
The center is located in the heart of the village of Sidi Kaouki, near the main parking lot, opposite the beach, overlooking the region's main surf spots. Here you'll find equipment rental and surf, SUP, windsurf and wingfoil lessons, as well as all the advice you need for surfing and sailing.
For this passionate team, sailing is more than a sport. The ocean is a source of learning and inspiration. A connection to nature and to ourselves. Of surpassing ourselves. And it's also a great place to play and share.
