We focus on doing one thing well: proper surf lessons, with attention to detail and real progression.

Our surf school is located directly at the foot of the Maspalomas dunes in Playa del Inglés, as close to the beach as it gets. When conditions are right, the local beach break offers very good waves for learning and improving.

We work with a permanent team of qualified instructors and keep our groups small — maximum 5 students per instructor. This allows us to adapt each session to the level and goals of every surfer, whether it’s your first time or you already have experience.

Small groups, local knowledge, and consistent instructors make the difference — and lead to a relaxed, enjoyable surf day with real progress.

What you'll do

We usually meet at the surf school around 9:30 in the morning (exact timing depends on the daily surf conditions)
The day starts with a relaxed but focused morning briefing, followed by short, practical theory sessions in our classroom. Our video theory class is not generic — it’s the result of over 10 years of hands-on teaching experience. It works equally well for first-time surfers and those who have surfed before, covering the fundamentals that actually help you get up on the board. Once you know the golden rules of surfing, we move to a short beach simulation, so nothing feels rushed once you’re in the water. Then it’s time for the first practical surf session with your instructor. After around 50 minutes in the water, we take a 20-minute break to rest and recharge before heading back out for the second surf session. We finish the day back at the surf school with a relaxed photo viewing, where everyone gets to see themselves in action. All photos are included and free to download — no upselling, no surprises. Small groups, experienced instructors, and a structured day that helps you progress. That’s how we’ve done it since 2007.
