Our surf coach Cristiano

Hello,

my name is Cristiano and I’m from Florence in Italy. I started surfing 15 years ago. At that time  I was still working as a wakeboard coach, but bit by bit my love for the sea grew stronger and more intense. In search of new waves I’ve travelled half the world and got to discover lots of cultures. In 2003 I discovered Fuerteventura for myself, and since 2007 I’ve been living on this beautiful island. I enjoy and appreciate living here every single day.

For me it’s an indescribable feeling to do what I love and to be able to pass it on! See you in the water!

Yours, Cristiano
