20 Years in the wind
I didn’t just come to Dakhla u2014 I helped build its kitesurf scene. Since 2006 I’ve been teaching kitesurfing, first as a sailing diplomat with UCPA in Agadir, then earning my international kitesurf diploma with the IKO in 2009. From there, I went where the wind was strongest.
I worked with the biggest names in Dakhla u2014 Dakhla Attitude, ION Club International, and Ocean Vagabond u2014 before deciding it was time to do things my way. In 2018 I launched my own business and opened a surf shop in town.
In 2023 I built The Ocean Villa u2014 the first accommodation in Dakhla designed exclusively for kitesurfers, surfers, and wingers. Not a lagoon camp. A proper villa, in the city, facing the ocean, with access to spots most people never find.

- Philosophy
Not Stuck in the Lagoon Camp. The Real Dakhla is Out There.

A luxury villa between Dakhla town and the water, with packages built around what this place truly offers. Whether you are learning to kitesurf, chasing secret breaks on a surfboard, or flying a foil above flat water u2014 this is Dakhla the way it was meant to be experienced.
