I couldn’t have asked for a better kitesurfing instructor than Amine.
He’s calm, patient, and explains everything in a really clear, easy-to-follow way, which made me feel comfortable and confident from the start. He knows exactly how to push you at the right pace without ever making you feel pressured.
You can tell he genuinely cares about his students’ progress and safety, and his positive energy makes every session enjoyable.
Thanks to Amine, I feel so much more confident in the water and will definitely be booking again. Highly recommend!

it's a great place to learn kitesurfing
Amine is a really good teacher, he has a relaxed no-stress attitude and gives really good advices.
I had done one surf camp before in Fuerteventura, but my kiting was not very good, and I was not confident at all to go out by myself.
After this camp, I came back to the UK and went out by myself with a friend with no instructors around, and I had a great session. So thank you Amine!

A real Shaka experience!
First off, we kicked off our kitesurfing journey with almost zero experience, and thanks to Amine, we’re totally stoked! Not only is he an epic instructor, but he’s also a solid dude who went all out to make our trip to Morocco one to remember. The training was intense but super fun, and we definitely leveled up. Can’t wait to take our kiting skills from the waves of Africa to the snow in Norway. Hang loose!

Der Urlaub und das Surfcamp waren sehr erholsam und es hat Spaß gemacht. Die Unterkunft war schön und die Atmosphäre war herzlich.

Extensive time on the water
Amine is not only a great kitesurfer but also an amazing teacher, a dedicated kitecamp host and fun to hang out with. Everyday he went out of his way to pick me up at the accommodation, find good kitespots, give detailed feedback, share a power snack and stay in the water well beyond the booked 2 hours per day. I got very comfortable with the kite, could get back on the board and surf in various conditions. A big thank-you to Amine!

Great experience!!!
Overall, my kiting adventure in Morocco exceeded all expectations. With its beautiful beaches, expert trainers like Amine, and the chance to meet new people who share a passion for the sport, it's a destination that promises unforgettable memories and endless thrills. I can't wait to return for another exhilarating adventure on the waves.

If you can kite in Sidi Kaouki, you'll manage everywhere
Very few people in the water and no rocks that can be dangerous. Possibility to have private lessons. Surfing is an option on no wind days. Beautiful location.

Would totally recomend
I booked the whole week of kitesurf and acomodation experience. Sidi Kaouki it's super chill and beautifull place. The hostel staff was very nice and the breakfast delicious.
Kite lessons were better than expected. Even the conditions were not good for a total beginner like i was able to water start and kitesurf on my own. All the instructors are competent and helpfull and I felt safe all the time.

An amazing stay
The accommodation is basic but if you want a real rustic experience, to meet amazing people and be treated like family by Amine. You are choosing the right place. He is a very patient instructor and I enjoyed learning from him. I honestly can't fault the experience at all, I enjoyed every second of my time there.

Excelent and rural place to learn all water sports
Whole camp is very peacufell and relaxed, there are infinite beaches to practise kitesurf, windsurf, surf, etc. Area is very rural, accomodation very cool and impressive if you are looking for traditional and local places, and you feel like you become part of the local comunity. People there are awsome, friendly, relaxed...best time of my life.

Calme simplicité chaleur humaine
Si vous cherchez un endroit convivial avec un confort simple façon auberge au milieu des habitants du village de Sidi Kaouki a 30 minutes d’Essaouira alors vous serez séduit !
Amine vous accueille chaleureusement, c’est une personne très sérieuse et de parole, Isamael vous enseignera le surf avec patiente, bienveillance et conviction, vous êtes en de très bonnes mains, on s’occupe bien de vous !
Le petit restaurant au pied de l’auberge est irréprochable , cuisine délicieuse , généreuse, locale en fonction des arrivées de nourriture du jour (poisson/viande)
Végétariens et végétaliens trouveront satisfaction!
Petit déjeuner inclus à volonté!
On peut déjeuner ou dîner à toute heure de la journée service continue. Le service est studieux, et l’ambiance agréable.
Si vous appréciez l’autehticité et le calme, prendre du bon temps à contempler l’ocean depuis la terrasse de l’auberge avec vue panoramique (levé et couché de soleil garantis!), alors vous serez heureux de croiser la route de Kite Essaouira.
Le yoga est agréable soit sur la plage soit sur la terrasse. On s’adapte à votre niveau. On peut prendre des cours supplémentaires moyennant 15€/pers.
Amine nous a offert un après midi au hammam (ce qui rentre dans le cadre du massage si celui ci n’est pas appliqué) bonne ambiance garantie !!
Nous avons été ravies de faire la connaissance des personnes et du lieu et nous recommandons chaleureusement !

Great experience
We had a great time in Sidi kaouki. Unfortunately there wasn't enough wind to enjoy the kite surf lessons, so we did surfing instead of it. After the surfing lessons we enjoyed the great ambiance of the restaurant next to the surf school. We were surprised how much fun it was!

Best choice, absolutely recommend
We had really good time with Ismail and Sarah. Ismail was our surfing instructor, we learned quickly with his good explanation. Amine was on his holidays, but we still had sufficient communication. Sarah made us delicious breakfast every morning. They are nice and friendly people. If you want to learn surfing and make friends, Sidi Kaouki Beach Hostel is highly recommended!!
