Tuition
Our teaching program has been developed according to BSA (British Surfing Association) standards and guidelines. The lessons provide a proven step-by-step approach to learn surfing safely and quickly. Our instructors are BSA qualified with level 3 Lifeguard certificates.
Safety Your safety is our prime concern, we offer the following surfing safety precautions:
• Soft skinned surfboards are available for novices to use.
• All surfing instructors have BSA Level I or equivalent qualification
(which includes an open water lifesaving qualification).
• Trainee/Assistant coaches are supervised by an accredited instructor.
• An Instructor is responsible for no more than 8 pupils in the water at any one time.
• All surfboards have suitable leashes (ankle straps).
• Instructors have a suitable life saving aid near at hand whilst pupils are in the water.
• A first aid kit is available at the beach.
Accommodation
The word 'Camp' does not accurately describe the accommodation. You will be staying in either private apartments or shared accommodation in our Surf house. You can view these options here:Casas Quemadas or Surf House. Both options are located in the resort of Corralejo and we offer a pick up and drop off service for Surf 'Campers' staying at either location.
You can choose to hire a rental car and collect it at the airport, or we can meet you at the airport and take you to your apartment or the Surf House.
