What We Love About This Surf Experience in Lanzarote

This tour offers a fantastic way to get into surfing without the hassle—top-quality equipment included, and an optional hotel pick-up to save you the trip to the beach. We particularly appreciate how personalized coaching is available through private lessons, making it perfect for beginners or those looking to sharpen their skills.

Another highlight is the stunning Playa de Famara as the setting, renowned for its consistent waves and breathtaking natural beauty. Plus, the small group size or private sessions ensure you get plenty of individual attention, which can make all the difference when learning to ride the waves.

A potential consideration is the weather — as with any surf, conditions can vary. The instructors adapt the lesson to tides and weather, but it’s good to be flexible and prepared for changing surf conditions.
