Kitecamp Essaouira - Moroccos best kitespots
Morocco has been on our location scouting bucket list for a long time. When we had finally explored the land of diversity and its kite spots extensively, we were certain: For this experience we have to revamp the LakeUnited kite camp calendar.
We found ourselves in paradise in Essaouira: wind-safe kite spots, endless sandy beaches, a variety of conditions, extremely friendly people, excellent food - and best of all: A unique oriental villa on a mountain with a view of the sea.
We will spend most of the time on the water anyway, with smaller kites - Essaouira is not called the African city of the wind for nothing. The thermal wind builds up reliably in the morning, so that we can comfortably prepare for our sessions from midday.
It's just ten minutes from our luxurious accommodation to one of the diverse kite spots - with flat water or light waves, twintip or waveboard... You decide where you want to progress.

Welcome to Africa's wind capital
Spot & wind in Moroccco
The picturesque port city of Essaouira is located on Morocco's Atlantic coast. Essaouira is known for its laid-back atmosphere and oriental flair, but also for the fantastic surfing and kite spots. You can kite in Essaouira almost all year round. However, the summer months are ideal, when kiters can expect more than four wind forces on 27 days a month.
The temperature differences between the cool Atlantic and the scorching desert inland accelerate trade winds from the north-easterly direction. The wind on the coast usually reaches its peak in the afternoon and can be really strong.
The spots are ideal for kitesurfing with the twintip, but there are also some nice wave spots to choose from.
You can't stop being amazed
Oriental luxury accommodation
Our kite camp accommodation will amaze you! We accidentally discovered this pearl in the middle of the Moroccan landscape while scouting for a location. A private, luxurious, oriental villa.
It is enthroned on a small mountain with a direct view of the sea. The villa has cozy rooms, extensive gardens, roof terraces, two pools and a private hammam. Our luxury home is just ten minutes from the best kite spots.
As part of the kite camp, we will be excellently fed. Breakfast and dinner are served directly in our accommodation, whereby we will enjoy real Moroccan flair and delicious oriental food twice in the souks.

Activities in Essaouira
In the morning there is enough time to analyze the previous kite session, to relax or to explore the area.
With its historic old town, souks, cafés and restaurants, Essaouira is one of the most beautiful coastal cities in Morocco. Whether during the day or at night, there is a lot of activity in the city.
Depending on the wind, we plan for example:
- Hammam visit (in house)
- Oriental cooking class
- Exploring the souks
- Dinner in the souks
- Surfing

Kite training
As soon as the wind picks up, we start towards the water. In addition to your practice, there are various workshops as part of our camp that give an insight into the world of kitesurfing. We design the exact program according to the circumstances. We cannot give you a number of training hours here, because you will receive full support from us the whole week.
Since our goal is your maximum progress, you can look forward to a great time with many successes.
Believe us, the days will be long but still too short.
Kite equipment
Yes, kitesurfing is strength training! So that you don't just build up your muscles while towing your kite and otherwise sit around waiting for better wind, we offer you our equipment for rent.
Whether on land or on the water, strong or weak wind - we always have the right equipment for you! So you travel much more carefree, use new kites from top brands like Flysurfer, Core, Ozone or Duotone and have more time on the water overall.
Accommodation & catering
We live in a gorgeous villa on a small hill overlooking the sea, only about 10 minutes from the kite spots.
The accommodation mainly offers double rooms, but they have separate beds. In addition, the complex has private gardens, roof terraces, two pools and a hammam.
Half board offers you a daily breakfast and – apart from two dinners in the souks of Essaouira, which you have to pay for yourself – also dinner as part of the camp.
Getting there
We recommend a flight to Agadir, Marrakech or direct to Essaouira.
From there by rental car (we are happy to organize car pools among the participants) to the accommodation.
