Family Surfcamp


Surfcamp for families – surf lessons for families – communal surfing for parents and kids*

You are a family and would like to spend you holidays on Fuerteventura learning something new? Why don’t you try out surfing all together? We think our surf camp for families is a great option. The idea is pretty simple: We provide the opportunity for families to learn how to surf at the same time, to spend time together and to have a lot of fun in the sea – together also.

Family surf holidays
To offer surf lessons for families with children we developed lessons for young and old. Kids learn how to surf with their parents and spend time together on the beach. If you prefer spending time on a beach without waves there are plenty of possibilities on picturesque lagoon beaches e.g. Los Lagos.

What is going on here – in El Cotillo?
Kids (8 years and older) can learn how to surf or improve surfing together with their parents in one surf course. Depending on your age and surf level we will put you  together in groups. All surf lessons take place in parallel with each other so that the different groups are on the same beach and have  lots of common time. Parents can observe their childrens’ first take-offs or watch their backs while overtaking them on their boards. Our camp is located close to the beaches in El Cotillo and Corralejo, which offers plenty of tourist entertainment, is only 20 minutes away.

Surf lessons
All our surf lessons are held by professional and experienced surf coaches. There will be 5 days of theoretical and practical training in and out the sea starting on Monday through until Friday – with 3 hours of coaching every day. We choose the best conditions suited to your surf level and we pick the best spots for you. By means of video coaching we will quickly improve your surf talents and skills. We use high-quality material only. It is most important to us that you have as much fun as possible.

Important aspects for kids

All kids should have a minimum age of 8 and should have  great “floatability” or swimming skills. Besides safety – fun is most important. We will try to teach with playful knowledge-based methods. All kids will learn to glide on waves in a prone position fist and will learn how to surf step-by-step. Our great “learning-environment” in El Cotillo offers long beaches without reefs, stones and bays without a big crowd of surfers in the ocean. All kids are equipped with a warm Rip Curl wetsuit and will exercise on special kids-soft-surfboards, which minimise the danger of being hurt.

Accommodation

Every family will live in their own apartment in two categories „classic or deluxe“. You will have your own  space to enjoy independence and time with your family. All apartments have  a fully-equipped kitchen, a living room, two or three bedrooms, a bathroom ,as well as a balcony or terrace (depending on the fitting).
