Summary
Our tours cover the main surf spots of Namibia. We offer surf lessons and guided tours to all the local surf spots. Explore the sandy beaches, discover empty surf spots and if you’re lucky, get barreled out of your mind! Whether you are interested in surfing Skeleton Bay or a first time surfer, we are exactly who you are looking for!
The coast of Namibia offers very safe surf spots for all levels. There won't be any strong current (beside Skeleton Bay), any dangerous reef and no sharks or other dangerous animals.
Next to surf spots for beginners and experts, Namibia offers amazing sceneries. Enjoy a trip with us to Sandwich Harbour where the Dunes meet the ocean or take a safari trip inland to the Etosha Nationalpark and witness wildlife upclose.
We are located in Swakopmund, an old german town at the beautiful Skeleton Coast of Namibia. While you find a shoppingcenter and many modern restaurants in town you will always find a quiet place at the beach to relax and watch the dolphins which often come close to shore.
For the lazy days between the surflessons we offer guided tours to african adventures like swimming with Cape Fur seals, driving through the desert or stand-up paddling in the lagoon surrounded by pelicans and flamingos.

ABOUT THE SURF CAMP

CAMP CHARACTER
For those that are starting out, we provide specialized tours and even lessons at easier surf spots.
So if it is your first time, we have all you need to ignite the passion for surfing by providing single and group lessons to get you started!
For all the intermediate students we choose one of many great spots, which are mostly empty during the week. Once you paddled out you will get the chance to choose your perfect wave, small or big, left or right. Quite often we even get visited by dolphins.

Although it doesn’t break all year long, when it does, you have the opportunity for the ride of your life. Regarded as one the “Top 10 waves to ride before you die”, it is a ‘must-surf’ for all die-hard surfers out there.
