Good to Know Before You Surf

Can I surf with no experience?

Yes! Most of our students are complete beginners. You learn in a small group on a soft, stable board, with a coach on the beach and in the water with you.

What's the water temperature?

The Atlantic in Dakhla is roughly 18–22 °C depending on the season. Wetsuits are included, so you stay warm during the whole session.

Do you pick up from hotels?

Yes — we offer free pickup from your hotel in Dakhla. Just tell us where you're staying when you book.

Is the equipment included?

Yes. Surfboard and wetsuit are included in every lesson. You only need swimwear, a towel, sunscreen and water.

What is your cancellation policy?

Free cancellation up to 24 hours before your session.

What happens if the weather or waves are bad?

We pick the safest, best spot of the day. If conditions are unsafe, we reschedule for free or give you a full refund.
