Windy Essaouira Kitesurf School — Our Story
Windy Essaouira was born from the wind. Mohamed Achhibat grew up on the beach of Essaouira, learned to kitesurf as a kid, became Moroccan national champion, then decided to teach. Not from an office — on the water.
Our approach is simple: we go where the wind is good. Kite lessons happen at Diabat, surf lessons on Essaouira beach, and we run trips to Sidi Kaouki and Imsouane when conditions are better there. A mobile school, not a fixed stand on the beach.

Reviews of Windy Essaouira.
We had an amazing kitesurf experience with Mohammed. Everything went very smoothly and at ease, we arranged it true WhatsApp. He picked us up in the center of Essaouira and took us to a perfect kite beach 10 minutes out of Essaouira. They have high quality equipment and very professional and detailed explanations on how to improve your kite game. Very fun guys to hang around with. My boyfriend managed kiting upwind in only one class of Mohamed!!
