Details
Far from the crowds of some beaches, Vieux-Boucau is the alternative spot for your surf lessons, With its wild and natural setting. The beach of Les Sablères is ideal for surfers of all levels, from 6 years old, thanks to its tidal range and its many sandbanks. In groups of a similar level of maximum 8 participants, you will be accompanied in all circumstances by a state-certified instructor who will ensure your safety while giving you advice to enable you to progress quickly. Children benefit from an adapted pedagogy, much more playful, with many games. Whether for one session or a one-week course, expect an unforgettable experience!
Meeting & Preparation
We meet 15 minutes before the start of the lesson directly at the school. You will be greeted by one of our hostesses at the reception who will be there to provide you with the equipment adapted to your age and level: surfboard and wetsuit (children from 6 to 11 years old wear a full wetsuit all year round, to stay warm and enjoy their lessons to the fullest). Then, we will accompany you to the beach where you will meet your instructor.
Start time
The start time depends on the tides to ensure the best conditions, so please plan some extra time on the day of your surf lessons. The exact start times are available 1 week in advance. We will inform you in time after you have completed the booking.
