Windsurf in Essaouira

For more than 30 years, Essaouira has grown into an exceptional spot for windsurfing. With a powerful wind blowing from April to October and a beautiful bay, sheltered by Mogador Islands, it’s a magical spot for intermediates windsurfers as well as for waveriders.
Beginners will also like it from May to September, when the swell is less frequent and the bay gives a great flat area for learning.
Our windsurf school, managed by VDWS certified instructors, provide high quality courses for beginners as well as advanced riders. From first rides to “Forward Loop”, you can learn everything with top end kit!
.

SURF CLUB

We offer two weekly surf sessions for local children from seven to sixteen and provide them boards from September to June. United by a shared passion the children discover the love of the ocean and that fabulous sport which is great for the development of muscles and coordination.

AU COEUR DE L'AMITIE

The Euro-Moroccoan association 'in the heart of friendship' is a charitable organisation for the impoverished children of Essaouira. It's objective is to daily give around 50 children a warm meal for lunch as well as to pay their school fees and material. The association also allows kids to go to the bathhouse regularly, to see a doctor, to visit holiday camps and to access the library of the French-Moroccan alliance in Essaouira.

All these undertakings are only possible thanks to donations of companies and private individuals. From November on about 20 kids of ten years and more get the chance to take part in a surf course every Sunday morning thanks to Ion Club / Ocean Vagabond watersports centre.

Hold on tight waves of Essaouira, the champions are coming!

WATERMAN CLUB

In our centre we try not to forget about the residents of our hometown. Hence, we offer waterman courses to all residents of twelve years and older who would like to practice one of the sports pursued by us (surf, sup, kite, windsurf) on a regular basis to share unforgettable moments on the water with them.
The activities are chosen according to weather and tides on the very day of the course.

"As new activity that is accessible and playful, SUP can be practiced in Essaouira all year. Either for fitness or to surf the beautiful waves of the bay.
Thanks to SUP you can peacefully glide over the water alone or with friends to explore Essaouira and its Island from a different perspective.
In addition to that, the site is very save without currents that carry you far away from the beach and no rocks under the surface. You get to practice right in front of our centre on a sandy beach."
