Coworking & Coliving by the Surf in Essaouira, Morocco

Just a few minutes walk to the beach and about 20 minutes more to reach the Unesco world heritage listed Medina (the historical city center and a must-see in Morocco). Our coliving is really located in a prime location. Grab a surf or a kite and walk across the street to get a session in during your lunch break. Then continue to get some work done next to the pool or in one of the coworking rooms overlooking the ocean.

If you are in Morocco, the magical Essouira is really a must-visit. If you need to get some work done at the same time, this is the place to stay.

Enjoy a beer or tapas in our gastro restaurant in between surf sessions. Relax in front of the open fireplace on a colder winter evening. Take a morning dip in the pool. All our communal spaces are designed to create a homely atmosphere where you can connect with and get to know the other people staying here.

On Fridays, we do a special couscous coworking lunch and on Sundays we do a Paella lunch meeting for the people whos not out and about, or away on a surf safari.

Our coworking space is located on the second floor and has a beautiful ocean view. There is a coffee machine and a kettle so you can make your own coffee or tea depending on your preferences.

Since the office space consists of different rooms, yo can choose if you prefer a coworking atmosphere or need some alone time. When you need to relax there is a terace where you can sit down and enjoy the sun, or why not go for a quick dip in the pool?

To be honest, if you just want to get out as many high-quality performance waves as possible during short work breaks, Essaouira may not be your best bet. However, don't dismiss this coworksurf destination just yet, especially not if you're interested in Kitesurfing.

The powerful Sahara wind that frequents Essaouira is the reason why the gorgeous long beach just across the road from the coliving is known as a kitesurfing mecca. And if you're new to kitesurfing, there is a kite center just a three-minute walk away.

As for normal surfing, if the wind is not too strong, the beach also gets some pretty decent beginner to intermediate waves during the winter half of the year. When you get a few hours over, Essaouira is just a 30 min ride to the popular surf spots of Sidi Kaoki and Cap Sim. If you're without a rental car, you can easily get there in a taxi or join some of the organized surf trips heading there.

When it's on, these surf spots can serve up some beautiful barrels.

Good Food is Good Mood

In our riad, we have a gastro bar serving up traditional Moroccan food as well as Spanish specialties and tapas.
