01 / Whitewater
02 / Green waves
03 / Point breaks
A week in the surf house, ten lessons and a van that goes wherever the swell is best. Tap a day.
The beach faces the open Atlantic, so there is swell nearly every day. Winter brings the big days, summer the small and friendly ones.
Best month for intermediates. 4/3 wetsuit.
Head coach. ISA Level 2, grew up on this beach.
Pro coach. Former national team, reads a reef like a book.
Beginners and kids. Lifeguard, endlessly patient.
Camp lead and video analysis. Drives the van.

I stood up on my third wave and could not stop grinning for the rest of the week. Maya is magic.
They drove us to a point break I would never have found. Best two-metre day of my life.
The video review fixed a bottom turn I had been doing wrong for ten years. Worth every euro.
Pick a level and a day. We hold the spot and send the details by email. Free cancellation up to 48 hours before.
You should be comfortable in the water, but beginner lessons are in waist-deep whitewater with a coach within arm's reach.
Swimwear, a towel and sunscreen. Boards and wetsuits are included in every lesson and camp.
Between 15 and 20 degrees depending on the month, 18 on average. A 4/3 wetsuit keeps you warm all year.
With 300 surf days a year it is rare. If the sea is flat we move your lesson for free or run a skate-and-theory session.
Six people for beginners, five for intermediates, three for pro coaching. Private lessons are available too.
Lessons can be cancelled free up to 48 hours before. Camps can be moved to another week up to 14 days before.
