The center in Essouira is in the perfect location (moved in 2008), directly on the beach, and only a 20 minute walk from the 'Medina' (city center). Even better, camel rides are offered from just outside the center!

The center and restaurant are protected from the wind, enabling easy set up, and the relaxation of non windsurfing family members.

The restaurant next to the center 'Ocean Vegabound' has a great menu and is ready to revive hungry and thirsty kitesurfers. They also provide sun loungers outside, great for non kitesurfing family member to chill out on throughout the day, or after a long day riding the waves.
