The morning wind slims and the bay opens into a long, clean right—Imsouane's point does what its reputation promises: long rides that stretch along a low rocky headland and a sweep of golden sand. Arrive with salt on your lips and a wetsuit on; the lesson begins with a beach briefing where instructors demonstrate paddling, popping up and line choice before moving into forgiving whitewater and gentle green waves.

Arrive at low tide windows
Low to mid tide often peels most cleanly at the point—check local tide charts and aim for morning sessions when winds are lighter.
Wear a full wetsuit in cooler months
Water can be brisk from autumn through spring; a 3/2–4/3mm wetsuit keeps sessions productive and comfortable.
Protect feet walking the rocks
The access path includes pebbles and rocky sections—wear sturdy sandals to and from the beach to avoid cuts.
Hydrate and snack before entering
Two hours of paddling is deceptively tiring—eat a light carbohydrate snack and bring water to stay energized.
