For over 15 years, Leila Achir has dedicated her life to surfing, competing in national competitions and becoming a certified coach through the Moroccan Surf Federation. Along the way, she discovered that many women dreamed of learning to surf but were looking for a place where they could feel safe, supported and truly welcome.
As her daughter Hiba grew up by the ocean, surfing became more than a shared passion—it became a way of life. Together, they created SheSurfMorocco, a space where two generations share the same mission: helping women and girls discover the confidence, freedom and joy that come from being in the ocean.
Today, SheSurfMorocco is more than surf coaching. It is a welcoming community where every woman, whether catching her first wave or building new skills, is encouraged to grow at her own pace in a professional, family-oriented environment.
SheSurfMorocco was born from a lifelong passion for the ocean.
