You want to stand up on a surfboard but have never surfed before? Our surf courses are based on sensible structured learning steps which build on each other and guaranty a comfortable and safe start to surfing. We also insist on a small surf coach to surf student ratio (1:6 max. 1:7). Only in small groups can our surf coaches train each surf student individually. You already had some surf lessons and have surfed your first white water waves but want more? You are already surfing green waves but don't have enough drive for your first turns? You have only got one week of holiday and you want to surf as much as possible, but you don't know where to go? Then we recommend for you our intermediate or advanced surf courses! We only use surf coaches that are certified for advanced lessons (min. BSA Level 2 Instructor). They also have at least 3 years experience specifically in teaching advanced surfers. From reaching the lineup to your first cutback they will guide you in theory and practice.
