What's included in a typical surf camp package?

Most surf camps include accommodation, daily surf lessons with certified instructors, surfboard and wetsuit rental, and often meals. Some premium camps also offer yoga classes, spa treatments, and cultural activities. Surf Intensive camps offer 2 sessions per day, allowing you to maximise your time in the water to progress faster. The offer varies widely from one camp to another and even between packages at the same camp. Make sure to check the packages on each camp page to find the right combination for you.

Do I need surfing experience to join a surf camp?

Not at all! Most surf camps actually cater to beginner surfers. Some destinations are more beginner-friendly though, like Portugal and Morocco, with gentle beach breaks perfect for learning. Professional instructors will assess your level and provide appropriate guidance to help you improve safely.

What's the best time to visit these surf destinations?

It depends on the destination. Costa Rica offers consistent waves year-round, while Portugal is best from September to February for larger swells — but also great during spring and autumn for smaller, warmer waves. Each destination has its own peak season, so check the destination guides for specific timing advice.

How do I choose the right surf camp for me?
