Surf Lessons
Lassarga is a piece of virgin land at the southern tip of the Dakhla Peninsula, where the lagoon meets the Atlantic Ocean. In front of us, there is a sandy beach of 1.5 km with a fantastic pointbreak that generates a beautiful line.
In a good day, you can surf about 1 km, from peak to the fishing village at the end of the beach (almost 2 minutes on the wave!). We are the only camp here, the place is practically private.
The waves of the Sahara are unique and offer unsurpassed surf conditions in the world, ideal for initiation and development. As for the waves, the summer is a little swell but winter is THE surf season in Morocco and Dakhla.
Join us to discover through an unforgettable experience, why so many are hooked on surfing, with tuition from our dedicated, highly-qualified, and experienced team of surf instructors.
Our courses offer something for everyone and for every skill level. Besides the practical element, we put high emphasis on surfing theory, such as safety rules, waves and the ocean and the surf equipment.

A word about
ION CLUB Dakhla Lassarga
Our ION CLUB Lassarga center is located at the Ocean Vagabond surf camp, which is a 20 minute drive from the city of Dakhla, in the very south of Morocco, and situated on the wild and exclusive beach of Lassarga. The center is directly on the spot and offers a breathtaking view of the ocean. From November to March, it is a real paradise for surfers and wave lovers of all water sports activities. A very long and clean wave, accessible to all, will give you a feeling of full satisfaction. There is also the advantage of a walk back along the beach to the peak. As the wind continues to blow during this winter period, you will be able to indulge in the best of watersports thanks to our multi- activity center for surfing, kitesurfing, wingfoil, windsurfing (some boards for rent for windsurfing) and stand up paddle. For beginners the Lassarga Lagoon is located 10 minutes by 4x4 from the camp, and offers ideal conditions to learn to kite. From April to October the waves disappear little by little in front of the center, and the spot of Lassarga, which is just in front of the bungalows of Océan Vagabond, has flat water and wind which is sometimes stronger and more regular. The ION CLUB center is equipped with DUOTONE, FANATIC and ION equipment.
BEST PERIODS
All year round for the wind
From November to March for waves, and from April to October for flat water
WIND
The wind in Dakhla is mostly from the North/North-East and offers great conditions for intermediate and experienced kitesurfers and wingfoilers on the OCEAN side.
In the lagoon, the wind usually blows from the left and is side-shore. Ideal for beginners and freestylers.
Kitesurfing, windsurfing, surfing, and now also wingfoil have become very popular in Morocco, especially in Dakhla.
WAVES
Just in front of the ION CLUB Lassarga center there is a 1.5 km sandy beach, in front of the point break from which a very nice right wave is running. When the conditions are good, you can surf almost 1km kiting and wingfoiling, from the point break to the fishermen village at the end of the beach. For the less experienced who are not so used to waves, it is quite possible to start and progress in wing and in kite by launching at the end of the wave. For surfers, the return to the peak is usually done on foot, walking along the beach rather than paddling.
From October to March, the surfing season is in full swing. Dakhla Lassarga offers one of the best surfing and riding spots for wave riders, kitesurfers and wingfoilers in this Moroccan region. We are also surrounded by different spots in the North on the Atlantic side of the peninsula.
