Your week is structured around 5 half-days of surf lessons and one rest day in the middle of the week.
Example of a typical day:
Wake up and enjoy a peaceful breakfast at the Surf House. Around 10 am, get ready and head out to surf with your instructor. On the beach, he'll explain the day's conditions and the spot: where the peak is located, how to identify the currents, the best way to position yourself and catch waves... During the lesson, the instructor will advise you on techniques to perfect: paddling, duck diving to get through the whitewater, your position on the board for optimal surfing, etc.
Your instructor will, as needed, review safety procedures and give you advice on how to avoid accidents in the water, thus guaranteeing you great surfing sessions.
Your stay includes 5 half-day surf lessons of 2.5 hours each.
Afternoon: Free time
In the afternoon, if you wish, surfboards and wetsuits are available for rent at the Surf House. This will give you the opportunity to put all the morning's advice into practice, allowing you to progress throughout the week and become more independent. You can also choose not to surf and instead relax on the beach or in the garden, book a yoga class, or explore the surrounding area on foot. This time is also ideal for chatting with other participants about their morning experiences and sharing moments together at the Surf House.
