You are taught by Mohamed Achhibat, Moroccan National Kitesurf Champion 2025 and Moroccan Strapless Champion 2026. He is IKO certified and has taught on this coast for over eight years — you are learning from someone who competes at national level, not a seasonal instructor passing through. Lessons run at Diabat rather than the town beach. It is wider, emptier, free of rocks, and the side-shore wind is noticeably cleaner. It is where locals send beginners for a reason. Essaouira's northeast trade winds blow 15 to 25 knots from March to October and build like clockwork around 11am, so sessions rarely fall through for lack of wind. If a day does not deliver, you can reschedule or switch to a surf lesson. Groups stay small, every student wears a helmet and impact vest on a quick-release system, and the kite fleet — Duotone, Reedin and North — is renewed each season.
