Favicon

The surf lessons were really great. I was able to improve my surfing and always felt safe. Nathan catered to my individual level and we always looked together at which waves to go to so that I could boost my confidence in the water. It was a lot of fun and I really enjoyed the time. One of the best surf lessons I've had.

Solo

Did a private surf lesson with Nathan and couldn't have gone much better. I'm a bit of a novice when it comes to surfing but Nathan was clearly someone who knows a lot about it. Very professional and willing to give all his time to teach you all the basics. I've no doubt he's good to teach all levels of skill but I would certainly recommend him. To top it all off he's an absolute gentleman and great fun. I'll definitely be back again.

Greg C

As first-time surfers, we had an amazing experience! Nathan provided highly personal and professional instruction in a very small group setting. Both my son and I developed a real taste for surfing thanks to this fantastic experience. If we visit Fuerteventura again, we’ll definitely take more lessons with them.
