Meet at the fish market parking
The lesson rendezvous is the main parking area by Imsouane fish market—arrive 10–15 minutes early to handle gear and briefing.
Mind the tides
Low-to-mid tide tends to deliver the longest, most beginner-friendly rides in the bay; ask your instructor about the best local tide window.
Footwear for the approach
The beach access can be rocky; wear sturdy sandals or reef shoes to protect feet when walking to the surfentry.
Sun and hydration
Atlantic sun and wind can dehydrate quickly—bring water and reef-safe sunscreen even on overcast days.
Rash guard or wetsuit liner
Protects skin from board rash and adds warmth in cool Atlantic mornings.
Reef or water shoes
Helpful for rocky approaches and slippery surfaces near the parking-to-beach path.
Reusable water bottle
Stay hydrated between paddling efforts—local shops may not be immediately next to the beach.
Small dry bag for valuables
Keeps phone, keys, and wallet safe while you’re in the water or during the briefing.
