Guided surfaris in the birthplace of canarian surfing

LEARN TO SURF OR IMPROVE YOUR SURFING IN GRAN CANARIA ISLAND

Las Palmas de Gran Canaria is the birthplace of surfing and Capital City of the Canary Islands. Our base is the «Las Canteras» area of the city which boasts one of Spains best city surf beaches and as tourism first developed here on the island it has a real cosmopolitan feel and vibe.

All guests stay in our 2 sociable Surf Houses  which are located only meters away from the beach and surf breaks. Our Surf Camp is great value for money and ideal for single travellers and young friends who want a city surf break and enjoy the laid back Canarian nightlife apres surf!

If you really want to learn quickly and efficiently the best way is making use of “Coaching Surf Video” with Eduardo Acosta. He will personally analyze the best waves filmed during your surf lessons and develop an exercise program designed to mechanize your movements in the water and in this way quickly assess short term progress. He will also give you all the tips and tricks you need to improve your technique and increase your general knowledge of surfing.

Our Guided Surfaris are ideal for experienced surfers who want to explore and surf some of Gran Canarias legendary and lesser known surf spots with a local guide. The rugged and unspoilt coastline north of Las Palmas offers a variety of surf breaks to suit all levels and surfing styles. The warm climate and consistent surf make it a great all year round surf destination. October to April is a good time to visit for bigger and more challenging waves.
