We make sure that you progress in a secure environment, by certified instructors, according to international guidelines. The lessons usually take place in the morning when the waves are the best and there is no wind, but off course as surfing is a sport that depends on the nature sometimes the schedule shifts. The teacher will always tell you in advance when the lessons take place.
We offer lesson packages and individual lessons. These are the lesson packages:
3 hours (€55/week): 3 lessons in a week is provided
6 hours (€89/week): 5 lessons of 1 hour and 1 theory lesson is provided

Miniramp Trampoline Indo boards Slackline Hammocks Pool table Table tennis Fitness area Surf bar Skateboards Longboards BodyboardsAs you walk onto the beach you can already see the break. Moliets plage has a river running into the sea which makes great banks left and right of the river, this makes Moliets the place where there are always a few waves to catch!
Next to the great beach of Moliets we also have the nice beaches of Hossegor which are known for their powerful and big waves.
The weather is always nice in Moliets, in the morning the wind lies down so the camp heats up pretty fast but every afternoon the wind picks up for half an hour so everything can cool down.
The waves at Moliets plage are very nice to learn how to surf or improve on your surf. The beach and sandbanks guarantee there is always a wave to surf no matter what your level is.
As the beach goes on and on there is always room for more, directly in front of town it can be pretty busy but if you walk for one minute there is always a spot to lay down your towel and have the whole sea for yourself.
Progress is located in the region Les Landes in the South West of France at the Atlantic Coast. The long sandy beaches of Les Landes with every few hundred meters a good sandbank is a surfing dream! Combine this with super beautiful nature, green pinetree forests just behind the dunes, hot sunny weather all summer, fun parties and an international audience of surfers from all over the world and you get the little surfers paradise called Moliets Plage.
