Surf Spots Around
THE (MAGIC) BAY
Favorite of the longboarders, this magic right hander breaks over 800 meters long. You reach the pic of this point break from the harbor. From there, you are ready to catch to longest wave of your life! For all levels, usually not much current and beautiful landscape in front of the spot.
THE REEF
Nice reef break left wave which allows the intermediate surfers to exploit the wave with a few maneuvers. It can dig with medium swell and form cool little barrels. Amazing for sunset session!
THE CATHEDRAL
Working in nice swell, this powerful right and lefthand wave offers possibilities of nice ride in the line-up. Accessible for all level.
Stand Up Paddle
If you choose to practice stand up paddle, you will learn with Youssef, a waterman who do SUP for many years, on our Indiana Stand up Paddles.
BEGINNERS
First of all, you will learn how to stand up, find and keep your stability on the board and paddle on flat water. Imsouane is one of the best spot to learn how to do SUP thanks to the tides, no wave when it is high and a huge space when the waves are breaking. You can do what you want, riding waves if you feel comfortable enough, or hanging around on the flat water and enjoying the unbelievable background of the Imsouane bay.
