Surf Trips from Essaouira
Essaouira Surf Camp School runs guided surf trips when Atlantic swell aligns — mainly October to March. We depart from the beach in Essaouira and head south along the coast to Imsouane (≈90 km, 1h15 drive) for a full day on one of Africa's most famous point breaks. Intermediate surfers and confident beginners on green waves can join; we read the forecast 48 hours ahead and confirm by WhatsApp.
Transport Essaouira → Imsouane
Round-trip transfer in our school van or 4×4 from Plage d'Essaouira (meeting point at the school). Departure around 7:30–8:00, return before sunset. The road follows the Atlantic coast through Sidi Kaouki — no public bus to the break, so organised transport is essential. Groups of 2–8 riders; private trips on request.
