Description

Start your day with a relaxed introduction session at our surf school located next to the sand dunes of Maspalomas. Learn the basics through an easy and engaging theory class, including video tips to prepare you.

We are a mobile surf school, selecting the best beach each day based on wave conditions. Transport is included if the best waves are at a different beach. Alternatively, we walk to Playa del Inglés beach with surfboards, a manageable 10 to 20-minute stroll along the sand suitable for most people with reasonable fitness.

Your experienced instructors will be in the water with you, guiding you to catch your first waves safely. After the first session, you’ll receive water and a piece of fruit to stay refreshed. Photos of your surfing experience are provided free of charge, so you can keep a record of your progress.

Participants should be in reasonable to good physical condition to fully enjoy the lesson.
