The Details of the Surf Course in Fuerteventura’s South

Imagine spending your mornings on sandy beaches, the Atlantic’s warm blue waters inviting you to paddle out and practice. That’s exactly what you’ll do during this intermediate or advanced surf course. The tour is designed not just to teach but to elevate your surfing to the next level, focusing on catching unbroken “green” waves and executing more complex maneuvers.

The experience begins with your instructor—an experienced professional—choosing the best beach based on daily currents, tides, and wave conditions. This decision is crucial, as it ensures you’re surfing in optimal conditions for your skill level, whether that’s a calmer spot for learning or a more challenging wave for seasoned surfers. The instructor then explains the local wave dynamics and safety tips, making sure you’re comfortable and aware of what lies ahead.

A short warm-up follows, which some reviews describe as effective in preparing you physically and mentally. Then, the instructor explains the day’s focus—whether it’s paddling technique, wave selection, or turning maneuvers—on land. This prep step helps you understand what you’re aiming for before you hit the water. From here, it’s into the surf, where your instructor will be right beside you—literally in the water—to give real-time feedback and help you catch waves confidently.

What to Expect During the Course

The small group setting means everyone gets attention, and the instructor can tailor the coaching to your current skill set. For example, if you already can stand in the foam but struggle with paddling out, that’s where the focus will be. If you’re looking to develop more advanced turns, the instructor will guide you through those movements as well.

You’ll paddle into unbroken waves—the kind that truly test your skills—learning how to position yourself correctly and ride with control. The experience isn’t just about catching waves but understanding wave mechanics, tides, and currents, which are explained before hitting the water. Because the instructor is also a beach lifeguard, safety and proper technique are top priorities.

Equipment and Extras

All necessary gear—including Billabong wetsuits and ocean+earth soft foam surfboards for intermediates, or epoxy boards for advanced surfers—is provided. This means you won’t need to worry about packing your own gear, making it easier to focus on learning. For those doing the 3-day course, a video coaching session is included, providing a valuable record of your progress.
