More than just a surf camp
At our surf camp we strongly believe that progression comes from understanding what you are doing in the water.
That’s why we offer photo coaching sessions every Tuesday and Friday from 10:00 to 12:00. During these sessions, our coaches capture high-quality action photos of your surfing, allowing you to really see your technique and movements on the wave.
In the afternoon of the same days (Tuesday and Friday), we run a dedicated training and photo analysis session. Together with the coach, we carefully analyze the photos taken in the morning, identifying mistakes, areas for improvement, and highlighting what you are already doing well. This detailed feedback helps you progress faster and more consciously.
To complete the training, we also include dry surf training sessions, using tools such as gyrobords and balance boards. This land-based training is designed to improve balance, coordination, stability, and body control — all essential skills for better surfing performance in the water.
By combining water sessions, photo analysis, and dry training, we offer a complete and effective coaching experience that helps surfers of all levels improve faster and with more awareness — while, of course, having a lot of fun.
Famara: The Heart of Surfing in Lanzarote
Our surf camp is located in Famara, a truly magical place where the ocean, the wind, and the volcanic landscape come together in a way that makes you feel free from the very first moment. Surrounded by the majestic Risco de Famara cliffs and a long, wild sandy beach, Famara is not just a surf spot, it’s a way of life.
The beach of Famara offers endless horizons, powerful energy, and constantly changing conditions. Every session feels different, every wave tells a new story. It’s the kind of place where time slows down, where you surf, breathe, and live with the rhythm of the ocean.
Just a short drive away, you’ll find some of the island’s most special spots. San Juan beach is perfect for quiet walks, sunsets, and relaxing moments by the sea. La Santa, a small surf town with a strong local soul,is famous for El Quemao, one of Europe’s most iconic and powerful waves, and for its deep connection to surf culture.
A few minutes inland lies Teguise, the old capital of Lanzarote. Its cobblestone streets, historic buildings, and timeless atmosphere make it a must-see. Every Sunday, Teguise comes alive with its traditional artisan market, full of local crafts, music, colors, and flavors: a perfect place to experience the authentic spirit of the island.
Beyond surfing, Famara and its surroundings invite you to explore, slow down, and reconnect: hiking along volcanic trails, yoga at sunset, cycling through lunar landscapes, or simply enjoying a coffee while watching the ocean change colors.
Whether you come to surf, explore, or simply feel something real, Famara welcomes you with open arms and our surf camp is here to make you feel at home.
