Qué llevar a un surf camp en Marruecos (lista 2026)
TL;DR
Lista completa para vacaciones de surf, kitesurf o wingfoil en Essaouira.
What the School Provides
All lesson and package prices include professional equipment — do not pack boards or kites unless you prefer your own gear:
- Surf: soft-top or hardboard, leash, wax, wetsuit (3/2 or 4/3mm by season)
- Kitesurf: kite, bar, harness, board, helmet, impact vest, wetsuit
- Wingfoil: wing, foil, board, helmet, impact vest, wetsuit
- Day trips: transport to Sidi Kaouki, spot briefing, all surf gear
Essential Gear to Pack
These items make your Essaouira holiday comfortable and session-ready:
- Reef-safe sunscreen SPF 50+ (apply before every session)
- Two sets of swimwear — one drying while you wear the other
- Quick-dry microfibre towel (hotel towels are often small)
- Sunglasses with strap — Essaouira wind is persistent
- Reusable water bottle — stay hydrated between sessions
- Waterproof phone pouch for beach and boat trips
- Basic first aid: blister plasters, ear drops, pain relief
Clothes by Season
Essaouira is windy year-round — evenings feel cooler than the thermometer suggests.
- Summer (Jun–Aug): t-shirts, shorts, light dress for medina, warm hoodie for evenings
- Shoulder (Mar–May, Sep–Nov): layers, light rain jacket, jeans or trousers for evenings
- Winter (Dec–Feb): warm jacket, fleece, closed shoes, beanie for post-surf warmth

Pro Tips from Our Instructors
Fly into Marrakech (RAK) for more flight options — our packages include transfer (2.5h). Pack a soft board bag only if bringing your own surfboard. Leave expensive jewellery at home — sand and salt are relentless.
