Hi there

I'm a newbie looking for some advice. I have recently just started surfing (I've had a whole two lessons!) and am looking to go on holiday with my gf in early October. My gf kitesurfs and has had two weeks lessons in Egypt, so we are both looking for somewhwere that can cater for both surfing and ks with lessons. Know of any company's spots, recommendations?

Thankies

Essouira in Morocco sounds good (I think that's how you spell it)
Lancilin - Fab spot, is in Western Oz. East coast Oz there's the Gold Coast - great surf and not bad for kitesurfing too.
Why not go the whole hog and jet of to Maui!
West Coast France has some good waves but not sure about kitesurf lessons. The french don't subscribe to the IKO system.
I'm running a trip to Egypt for a week at the end of October, but not much oppotunity to surf there.
Try "waveriders" or "extremelives", both are online travel companys offering the type of thing you're looking for. Tell them I sent you!
