SURF SCHOOL
Surf lessons for all levels by qualified surf instructors
The aim of our surf school is to provide you with safe surf lessons to make surfing in Tenerife a special experience for you and your whole family. Our surf school has been awarded by the Canary Islands Surf Federation (Federación Canaria de Surf) and is licensed to provide professional surf lessons in Tenerife.
We want you to be part of a surf school that is not an ordinary one – to learn surfing with all its techniques and its rules, and to become confident in recognising and reading tides, currents, and wave conditions. We achieve this with a team of qualified surf coaches and specialists in the technical teaching of surfing, who have years of experience in training with surfers of all levels and ages and who pass on their knowledge to you with a lot of fun and empathy and always guide you in practice in the water and in all theoretical topics.
LET'S GO SURFING
BEGINNER
Your dream of surfing
Step by step, you will be introduced to the basic skills of surfing by our professional team during your first surf course. After theoretical and extensive practical introductions on the beach, you go into the water with a surfboard specially designed for beginners. Here you will always be accompanied by a surf instructor and can practice the techniques you have learned, such as paddling and, above all, the take-off, and ride your first waves in a safe environment.
INTERMEDIATE
You are ready for the next step
You have already taken one or more surf lessons or have gained experience with a surfboard on your own? The take-off in white water works well and you are making your first turns? Then our intermediate course is exactly the right thing for you. We will deepen your basics and take your first steps in the line-up, where you will get closer to surfing unbroken waves. We continue with the first manoeuvres and, if you wish, the handling of a hardboard, which reacts much more directly to the wave than a softboard, but also requires better timing and more paddling effort from you.
ADVANCED
You want more style and technique
The take-off is no longer a problem for you, and you can safely ride unbroken waves? You know and respect surfing etiquette and the right behaviour in the line-up? Then you are ready for our Advanced course. From now on you will be introduced to the finer points of surfing. Your coach will try to optimise your style and techniques by dealing with everyone individually and filtering out various weaknesses as well as strengths. The focus is on the following techniques: Diving through waves, building speed, bottom and top turns and the cutback.
DURATION AND PROGRAMM
Time for a variety of activities
Enjoy a flexible surf experience tailored to your level and the best conditions of the day. The program lasts around 3–4 hours, giving you plenty of time to make the most of your day. Getting to the surf spot on your own gives you more flexibility than a fixed shuttle schedule—most guests explore by rental car, discover hidden beaches, or share rides and meet new people. Our surf center is right at the beach. After a warm-up and coaching, you’ll surf 1.5–2 hours, then relax and enjoy island life.
EQUIPMENT
Always the right material
We make sure you always have the perfect gear. Each surfer gets a board, 3 mm wetsuit, and lycra suited to their level. Beginners enjoy safe, stable softboards, while intermediate surfers progress with performance softboards. For intermediate-advanced private sessions, we offer a selection of hardboards, so you can refine turns and take your surfing to the next level.
