A low swell slides across Imsouane Bay as the village wakes: fishermen pull nets, a handful of longboards lean against a low stone wall, and the bay’s long right-hand peel teases riders with clean, rolling faces. Your lesson begins on the sand, where Rajy—an instructor steeped in local surf culture—talks you through paddling posture and timing while the Atlantic nudges the shore.
