2. Perfect wave spots

Just north of the town of Essaouira is the small village of Moulay where you can find some incredible wave spots for the more advanced windsurfers as well as smaller waves for any level looking to get into wave riding. If you head over the headland in Dakhla there are some amazing wave spots to enjoy.
