A wonderful experience! - Experience made by my son and dad: as soon as they arrived the staff welcomed and instructed them. Equipment is provided by them. I recommend bringing water, because they distribute it through the bottles and do not use the classic water bottles. They were kindly given glass bottles. But if you have a personal water bottle even better. The instructors are capable and well organized, they took them to a point on the coast where you could practice safely. Both had a lot of fun, and we with them to revisit the photographs. Recommended!

A top school! Enjoy! - I had never surfed before, I only practiced SUP I took advantage of my vacation in Gran Canaria to take a course in an idyllic setting, I wasn't disappointed! A welcoming team, clear explanations, great care from start to finish! Learning in a good mood with quick results, I stood on my first wave from start to finish 😁 I need to train and improve now but the basics are learned 🤙 Thank you very much to Julien and Jordan for everything they taught me and for this great afternoon of pure fun! I Enjoy It!

Absolutely recommend! 🏄‍♂️ - The surf course was great fun! The explanations were great and easy to understand. The teachers were always present in the water and helped us with great tips and tricks. Thanks to the small group size, they really had a good view of each individual. You could tell that the instructors were there with a lot of joy and enthusiasm – their cheers on the first successful rides were infectious! The photos have also become very good. It's as good as it gets!

Amazing Experience! - My first time surfing - Had an amazing time surfing! The instructors were super friendly, patient, and made the whole experience fun and easy to pick up — even as a beginner. The location was great, the waves were perfectly timed, and the vibe was enjoyable from start to finish. Definitely something I’d do again! Additionally, the photos are taken with a professional camera - the quality of the images are really good. (I have attached one for reference).

Top surf school, great team, lots of fun guaranteed - I took part in a four-hour beginner course and was completely enthusiastic. The whole team is incredibly friendly, motivating and professional – you feel welcome immediately. We were a small group of four people, which was super pleasant. After an understandable and interesting introduction to theory, we went straight to the beach. I would particularly like to highlight Jordán: He gave each individual tips and explained exactly how to improve. So I had a lot of fun from the beginning. A great extra are the photos from the course, which capture the beautiful moments. The beach section was perfect for beginners and provided ideal conditions for practicing. Compared to my first surf course, this course was much more professional, personal and overall just great. I felt comfortable and well looked after at all times and would like to get back on the board immediately. I will definitely come back! 🌊✨😊

Awesome surf school - fun and learning in one - Surf Canaries is the best surf school I have experienced so far. You feel welcome immediately. Start with theory lessons, video analysis on day 3 (or earlier), surf skate training for the turns, very good and individual support from the teachers. Highly professional, yet with a lot of fun and joy. I have learned a lot once again and I am very grateful to Julien and Jordan. Anytime again!

Taster course as a wonderful first surf experience - Birthday present for my 20-year-old niece: Taster course We were absolutely positively surprised – our first lesson was special because we managed to get on the board several times already, thanks to the support of our surf instructor Jordan. In his group we immediately felt comfortable and could enjoy the hours very much. The day was a wonderful experience! Many thanks to the team. We will be back as soon as possible! Best regards Stephi

Enjoy the taster course - We booked a taster day at Surf School, this was a great experience! First you get a short theory unit on how to behave on the surfboard. After that we went to the beach. There were a few stretching exercises beforehand and afterwards we started in small groups with the dry exercises on the beach. Immediately afterwards, what you learned was applied in water. The surf instructors are all top and try very hard and give you tips to make everything work. At the end there are also photos of the day. We had a lot of fun and discovered a new sport for us!
