  • Fun day trip at the beach with the waves

    We got picked up at 8 in the morning from our hotel in a comfortable 8 seater vehicle with AC and a driver (Abdel) who took good care of us, let us play our music via Bluetooth. We had a couple stops to fuel up with some food, and another to check out some natural organic argan oils where we got to see the process in how they're made. We also stopped for some pictures due to the great scenary. The surfing itself was fun and good for beginner level people such as our group. The beach was quite windy and the waves were active and not big so you really get the chance to try to learn, though it was still very difficult to successfully ride waves on the surfing board. It was still fun and our driver Abdel also have us time after the surfing to eat and explore the beach and area of Essaouira that we were in. We ended the day playing some beach football before heading back. Abdel really took care of us and made the trip fun and was a great guide for us in this day trip. Thank you to the surfing team and to Abdel

    An incredible day in Essaouira! The introduction to surfing is a moment filled with joy and sharing. You don’t need to be an expert to feast, the team will accompany you from start to finish. Many thanks to Zaid for all the knowledge passed on during the visit of the medina of Essaouira, an excellent guide! And thank you to Abdel for accompanying us all along and for sharing with us Moroccan culture! Florian & Margaux

    This is the second time I’ve used Marrakech snow and surf. Several years ago I did the same trip and we brought the surf board with us from Marrakech. This time, they organized surf lessons through Loving Surf in Essaouira. Both experiences were great. We managed to fit in some cultural things too: stopping at a low pressure Argan oil collective on the drive out and a two hour city tour after surfing. Other tours can book an entire van, this was just two of us. Essaouira also has a lot better shopping than Marrakech — lower (marked) prices and less haggling. Don’t buy souvenirs ahead of time in the souks. Highly recommend.

  • Great day in Essaouira

    Great visit to Essaouira. The journey with Karim took more or less 2 hours to go and back. At the driveway we made a first stop, where we could see goats on trees, it was a great and amazing experience! The day in Essaouira was magical, Karim very nice and pleasant, showed us around the city and showed some places where scenes from Games of Thrones were shot. Then the surf session was very nice and we were lucky because the weather was there. In short, all to say that if you want to spend an unforgettable day in Essaouira, go with Marrakech Surf & Snow!!

  • Great surfing experience!

    We had a really nice day with Karim in Essaouira! He gave a great surf lesson and a nice tour around Essaouira where we got to see some nice spots and some of the places where the Game of Thrones series was made. The car ride there is quite long (2,5 hours) but we got to see beautiful landscape on the way so it was definitely worth it.

  • Fun!!!

    It was our first experience booked on TripAdvisor and not disappointed at all! Karim is a great guide, very attentive, pedagogue and very kind. He picked us up at the Café de France in Marrakech in a van. We were with only two Germans and this small group was optimal for learning surfing. We stopped at the women's argan oil cooperative before arriving in Essaouira. The waves are not too high, it is perfect to learn to surf in front of the camels asleep on the beach!:) After 2 hours in the water, we had lunch by the beach then strolled through the alleys of Essaouira, visited the port (set location of Game of Thrones), and resumed the road to Marrakech in the late afternoon. Girls, a tip, dress is to be proscribed in Essaouira, there is a LOT of wind... except in the small streets of Essouira where you are cut off from the wind, otherwise it is panties visible assured! Thanks again Karim, we had a great day. <3 <3:):)

    We set off early from the hotel in Marrakech and it took a little over two hours to get to Essaouira, stopping along the way to get a great photo of some goats that had climbed into a tree. We got to Essaouira but the tide was low so we had a wander around the town, the fort and the harbour, got something to eat and had a good chat about the place. After an hour or so the tide had turned and the waves were picking up. A range of different boards are available depending on your ability and many wet suits in different sizes. I got in the surf, Karim gave me some pointers and joined me in the water. After a few hours, I was well knackered, but what an experience. It is a really nice town to see and how many chances do you get to surf in Africa? The waves are really good for a beginner / intermediate surfer. Dried off, had a lovely lunch at a beach side restaurant and jumped back in the van for a comfortable ride back to Marrakech. My advie, sign up and get involved!!! Thanks again.
