Best school ever, highly recommended!! - I had a wonderful time in Essaouira and all thanks to the great team of this school. The instructors are great but above all everybody is so caring and you can truly feel that what they care the most is for you to feel safe and enjoy your time while learning. I took both kitesurfing and surfing lessons and I had a blast. You can also shower there which is very handy. There is the sweet Soulaiman there always ready to help you with your wetsuit or offering you delicious mint tea after the session. They really take care of everything, I also got picked up at the bus station cause I didn't know where my hostel was. I loved all the guys and their vibes. I just wished I could have stayed longer!! I am definetely coming back to visit them. Don't miss out on this great experience, thank you so much again guys for the wonderful memories ❤️

A really great school for a kite surfing beginner - When booking my trip, I found a lot of different kite schools to choose between, and it was more or less just convenience bringing me here. The communication was so effortless, and they were able to take care of all my needs, and answer my questions previous to going. Once I arrived and started my kitesurf lessons, I was pleased to find that I had chosen what I believe to be one of the best schools for kitesurfing in Essaouira. All the staff is very friendly, and you really get the feeling that you're part of a small family of surfers. Everybody is pleased to help you from the moment you step into the shop, through the lessons on the beach and water, and all the way untill the end of the day. I had an amazing time with these people and can highly recommend them.

Best water Sportscenter in the city! - Fantastic place and fantastic people on the center. They were amazing, they reach us to check if everything was ok after the earthquake. The kite surf lesson was amazing, their instructors were so helpful I highly recommend them.

I am so grateful for 5 weeks with these guys - I came to Essaouira for 5 weeks with a single objective - to learn kite-surfing. I couldn't have been luckier than bumping into Rashid and Rasty. There is just such a great vibe in their team, i felt like a part of their family from day one. They didn't give up on me even when I destroyed a kite .-) What surprised me is that most of the guys speak not only French, but also great English. I hope to be back soon myself!

Best kiteschool in Essaouira - I had an absolutely amazing experience at Essaouira Watersports surf school. It's a definite 5-star review from me. From the moment I stepped in, everyone was incredibly kind and supportive, making me feel right at home. The attention to detail when it came to equipment was impressive, and everything was always perfectly organized. I opted for private lessons, and I couldn't be happier with the progress I made. In just 13 hours, I learned how to master the waterstart and confidently ride both upwind and downwind on the right side. I even got a taste of downwind riding on the left side. The instructors were patient, skilled, and tailored the lessons to my pace and needs. What truly sets this school apart is their dedication to ensuring you have a holistic experience. Not only did I gain kite surfing skills, but the staff were always ready to offer insights and recommendations about the best local restaurants, spas, and even parties. Their knowledge of the area added an extra layer of value to my trip. If you're heading to Essaouira, I can confidently say that you won't find a better kite surf school. The team's expertise, genuine care, and the quality of instruction make Essaouira Watersports the ultimate choice. This was an unforgettable adventure, and I'm grateful to have chosen this school for my kite surfing journey.

It wouldn't have been the same without them... - If you choose Essauoira Watersportsch for surf and kitesurf lessons you will l have the best team ever! I came with a friend who booked lessons with them and I had to get my kite repaired. We were immediatly welcomed like friends! They took care of everything, were super attentive, basically a "forget about everything, just get out on the water" service. All the guys working there have a passion for kitesurfing and love their jobs as instructors. You can really feel that. My friend saw impressive progress during the lessons and I got a great repair done for my kite. The guys also helped me out with so many other small things! When you book a lesson or want to rent equipment with Essauoira watersports you can be sure to be in the best hands of a team that shares a passion, genuinely cares for you and not your just money and you that you will have a great experience overall in Essauoira! Mainly because of this team we want to visit Essauoira again, and that is truly something special!

Great (kite)surf team ! - The team at Essaouira Watersports are absolutely fabulous. Everyone is super friendly and helpful. Rusty and Rashid manage the company professionally and keep it fun and safe at the same time. The material they use is of high quality. We learnt to kitesurf over 3 days in essaouira and surf during a family day trip with the EW team. We are a couple with 2 boys aged 13 and 14. Will definitely be back for more with EW !
