SURF COURSE AND ACTIVITIES

The originality of our Surf Camp is more than discover a country and its waves, you’ll also meet a whole culture, surfing in Balsa. Our goal is that students at the end of the class, can take a wave alone, without the instructor’s physical help, to fully enjoy the sensations of this sport! The class lasts an hour and a half, the first forty minutes are dedicated to the theory and practice in the sand. It is the student’s preparation before going overboard. These explanations and exercises facilitate the practice on the waves. Our classes are taught by young local instructors, very good surfers, some national champions, who are certified by the International Surfing Association (ISA). They have patience and above all love their job: to pass the love for surfing and sharing their own passion! Each planning depends on the tides and the level and the student’s encourage. These 15 hours can be arranged during the day, morning and evening, according to the pace of the student and the tides. There are three levels with warming theory, practice and different exercises. Every hour is under surveillance and supervision of the instructor with specific exercises. We will also film the student so he can watch himself and be corrected in a better way with the help of the instructor.

 The board rental is made according to the level of the person and the tide. We reserve the right to refuse a rental for your safety and that of the equipment.
