What To Expect
Surf Rental is a great way to enjoy time in the sea and catch a few waves. Explora Watersports is lucky to be located right on the beach in front of the best beginner and progression wave spot in Essaouira. The beginner spot is right in front of our centre where the waves are smaller and slower which gives you the chance to pop to your feet and perfect your stance. The intermediate spot is just to the left where the swell is not protected by the island so the waves are bigger and faster. Surf rental starts from 1/2 day through to one week Surf Rental includes your board and wetsuit as well as full use of our facilities (Showers / Changing room / Chill out area and wifi ) Meeting point is Explora Watersports centre on the beach in Essaouira We open from 8am and close at 6pm We also offer surf day trips as well to Sidi Kaouki or Imsaoune We can pick you up from your hotel or riad if required

5.00Come here for years! Always good service, very cordial guys. This time I only borrowed stuff for surfing, previous years (from 2017) I always took lessons. You know what to expect, they recognize me now and always welcome me with great cordiality. I will always recommend Explora.
I made friends at Explora!
