Loving Surf, Kite & Surf School Surf Shop

Essaouira, Marrakech-Safi

Loving Surf, Kite & Surf School Surf Shop is a vibrant surf institution in the beautiful coastal city of Essaouira, one of Morocco's most charming and culturally rich destinations. With a superb 4.9 rating from over 530 reviews, Loving Surf is a multi-faceted operation that combines a surf school, a kitesurf school, and a well-equipped surf shop — all in one of the most atmospheric settings on the Moroccan coast.

Essaouira is famous for its consistent trade winds, making it a world-class destination for kitesurfing alongside its quality surf waves. Loving Surf's instructors are certified in both disciplines, with IKO-qualified kitesurf instructors and experienced surf coaches who know the local breaks intimately. The surf school operates on Essaouira's expansive beach, which offers rolling waves ideal for beginners and intermediates, while more advanced surfers can explore nearby point breaks. Kitesurfers benefit from the steady onshore winds and wide, uncrowded launch areas.

The on-site surf shop stocks a comprehensive range of boards, wetsuits, and accessories from leading brands, serving both school guests and the local surf community. Beyond the surfing, Essaouira itself is a destination — its UNESCO-listed medina, fresh seafood markets, live music scene, and bohemian energy make it one of Morocco's most magnetic cities. Loving Surf offers a complete Essaouira surf experience in a setting that feels a world apart from the big camps further south.
