Most surfers choose between two zones: inside the old medina or along the beachfront. The medina offers atmosphere, narrow alleys and roof terraces; the beach area offers modern hotels and shorter walks to the meeting point on the sand. Both are good; your choice depends on whether you prefer quiet nights or being in the middle of the action.
Our surf school Essaouira works with a handful of trusted riads and guesthouses in each area. We know their owners personally and can vouch for comfort, cleanliness and fair prices. Booking through us does not cost extra, and we stay your direct contact if anything needs adjusting during your stay.
