Kitesurfing


As destinations go a firm favourite amongst kite surfers in Morocco is the small town of Essaouira located on the Atlantic Ocean about two hours drive from Marrakesh. Here you’ll find long stretches of sandy beach, enviable winds that average around 20-35 knots daily and lots of sunshine just for good measure. The conditions are best for kite surfers that have plenty of experience and are well set up with their own gear.
Further south is the town of Daklha located in the Western Sahara territory. The town itself does not rival Essaouira in the charm stakes, but look past that and you’ll find the 25km lagoon! In different areas of the lagoon the conditions will suit different levels of ability, the water temperature doesn’t dip below 20C, even in winter and the winds blow everyday. Bonus! Dakhla is at the southern end of the Atlantic coast of Morocco therefore, unless you’ve got you own vehicle it’s easiest to get on a domestic flight from Casablanca.
