OUR STORY
AND WHAT WE BELIEVE IN
WHO WE ARE
WE LOVE AND LIVE FOR THE OUTDOORS
La Vida Surf is a small Nordic-Moroccan Yoga, Surf and Nature company which is found on one basic principle, namely "Giving Back" while enjoying the outdoors. Most of all, what we invite you to experience is what we are passionate about and have cultivated carefully within ourselves over years of practice.
La Vida Surf was founded in the midst of wild nature, a UNESCO biosphere reserve, for our guests and inhabitants to be able to feel and work with the powers of nature and her elements. When you stay with us, you work on body related and self-reflective practices every day and let the nature shape you.
A LETTER FROM THE FOUNDER
Aksu
“My first touch of Morocco was through my Moroccan friend Hosni who told me about a little village by the name Imsouane. He told me about this little house on the beach right by a point break which sounded like an epic wave. Back then Imsouane had just gotten electricity and the surf activity was very downscaled. With this story in mind 10 years passed before I first landed in Morocco to view the amazing nature, culture and of course all the epic points.
After traveling the country for 5 years I finally found the house of my dreams in Ait Ahmed, just above the famous fishing village Taghazout. I wish for you to come and experience Morocco for yourself and enjoy both my experience and hospitality. This house is built with passion for preservation of nature and good times. Welcome!”
A MOROCCAN - SCANDINAVIAN COLLABORATION
La Vida Surf is a collaboration between two continents and regions: Africa and Europe, Morocco and Finland. We are the first Finnish surf company in Morocco and very excited to share our Moroccan experience with you.
We have adapted a Northern European corporate structure with transparency and direct communication as key, with our Team celebrating diversity through being a truly multicultural blend of great people and values.
OUR TEAM
Our team is built on the foundations of respect for nature and the outdoors. The values we cultivate and pass on at La Vida Surf have their roots in the founding members and we see it as our responsibility to pass on the good vibes, knowledge and respect amongst our guests and friends.
You can contact each of us regardless of your question, we will always help and connect with you.
OUR MISSION
We consider preserving the very nature in which we love to roam in as one of the most important deeds to be done for human kind. All life can be traced back to the existence of our forests and oceans and it is no secret mankind is on a quest of full exploitation of these vital sources of life.
Therefore, also La Vida Surf (like so many great minds and companies have done before us) joined the quest of preserving the nature we love by donating a percentage of our income to the founding of La Vida Surf - Groundwater Fund (Perintövesi Säätiö), which is set to buy land and preserve it.
