Details
Does your child want to try surfing? The Jardin des vagues is the right course for them! In the exceptional setting of the Côte des Basques beach in Biarritz, they will learn the basics of surfing in small groups of up to 8 participants of a similar age (5-7 or 7-9 years old). Their certified instructor will be by their side at all times, providing them with many tips directly from the water. From one day to a full week for even more significant progress, there is no doubt that your child will quickly become a surf enthusiast!
Meeting & PreparationThe time of the lessons changes every day with the tides, so you will have contacted us the day before to find out the exact time of the course (they can take place from 7 am to 10 pm). The first day of the lessons, we meet at our office on the beach promenade 15 minutes before the start of the lesson (if you arrive by car, parking is widely available nearby). There, you and your child will get to know their instructor and your child will be able to try on their suit and get the surfboard that suits them according to their age, their level and the quality of the waves. Then, off to the beach. Each lesson lasts 1h.
