SURF
Whether it’s your first time or you’ve been surfing forever, we love teaching people how to surf, and how to become better surfers. Our highly experienced professional team of surf instructors will introduce you to surfing step by step, guide you to correct your flaws and help you improve your maneuvers. Above all they will teach you how to stay safe in the water and should any accidents occur, are qualified to quickly administer any First Aid that may be required.

The surf school has its own building, also with space to shower and change before and after each surf session. Surfers meeting and groups are made according to surfing level. Then, the surf instructors will ask you what skills you want to improve and if you have any fears or goals in mind. Wetsuit and surfboards are assigned to use during the whole stay, whenever wished. And for intermediate and experience surfers, there is a wide quiver of NEXO Surfboards to be used in the test center.

The timing of the classes is decided according to the tide, wind conditions and the beach we will choose and you can check it in the daily plan, with the rest of activities, during dinner of the previous day. Surf classes last for 2h and are given in small groups of 6 people each, two theory classes and one video analysis session are also provided along one week, to better understand the ocean, the area where we are and check everyone’s improvements along the way. And as NEXO Surfhouse is only 300m from the beach, there we go walking with the ocean view in the horizon.

YOGA
When we practice Yoga before surfing, we focus on Asanas, strengthening the mind and body in preparation for the surf lesson; building muscle strength is important when facing the challenge of larger waves. Surfing can be tough sometimes. After surfing, our Yoga sessions focus on stretching and relaxing the body and mind. Meditation sessions and massages are also available to book.

Yoga sessions suitable to all are offered every day, and even when there are five classes included in one week package, you can take extra classes for a bit more. The 75min yoga classes are given in the outdoor yoga platform or, if it is getting chilly, in the big yoga house, both of them surrounded by the garden. All material is provided, with mattress, blocks, bolsters, belts and blankets.

MASSAGES
For the pleasure of having a professional relaxed massage or for taking care of those muscle little pains after some surf and yoga sessions, taking care of yourself with a massage is always a good option. There is a wooden cottage in the garden offering the needed privacy and comfort you need.

If you choose the Wellness package, you will enjoy a 45min massage, with natural essences and personalized oils, working on your back and neck with craniosacral technique and your chakras rebalancing with magnets. And everyone can always get a 30min massage of certain body areas or a complete massage of 60min for general relaxation.

THE VIBE
Your holidays at NEXO Surfhouse are about enjoying the beach, surfing, practicing yoga, healthy and tasty meals and disconnection. You will meet people alike of different nationalities and ages, even when the range is between 30 and 45 years old.

Our large garden space offers plenty of room for everyone to find a quiet spot in a hammock with garden views or to sit and chat in a group with family and friends over a cold drink from the honesty bar. Our spacious lounge is where we have fun: talks, guitars, ukuleles, singing, board games, films and surf documentaries are just some of the activities we arrange to amuse ourselves. Guests can learn to walk the ‘Slack-line’, improve their balance on the ‘Indorboard’, play Table Tennis, Volleyball, or Badminton.

THE SURROUNDINGS
Every week during the Surfcamp Season, there is one night to enjoy what El Palmar has to offer and a whole day off to explore the Cadiz and the white villages of La Costa de La Luz, such as Tarifa, Conil or Vejer de la Frontera. Let us know about the things you love to do on holiday and we will find you the activities, places and experiences you’ll want to explore to know a bit more of Andalusia, its gastronomy, people and traditions. Each season brings its own excitements and we can guide you to the best restaurants, fiestas and other events that take place throughout the year. Take a glance to our blog for ideas.
