Details
On one of Anglet's most beautiful beaches, the Marinella Beach, try your hand at surfing for the first time from the age of 6 or improve your skills in a good mood! Our state-certified instructors will be there to supervise your efforts and ensure your safety while you master the famous waves of the Basque Country. In small groups of maximum 8 participants, sorted by level and age, you will benefit from their expertise to progress at full speed. By the end of the week, you will have learned to ride foamies, maintain your balance on the board, ensure a take off at the top of a wave or carry out the main manoeuvres. Tempted? The ocean awaits you!
Meeting & Preparation
We meet 15 minutes before the start of the lesson directly at the school (free parking available). You will be taken care of at the reception and you will be provided 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, off to the beach where you will meet your instructor.
Depending on the weather conditions, we may have to go surfing on the beaches nearby, Les Corsaires or Les Sables d'Or.
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 2 weeks in advance. We will inform you in time after you have completed the booking.
