Lanzarote Surf - Famara

Lanzarote Surf is the first surf camp in the Canary Islands, founded in 1996 by Maike, a local surfer who has dedicated his life to chasing waves across five continents. Located just 100 meters from Famara beach in a stunning natural reserve, this camp has taught over 100,000 students in their 30+ years of operation. The team consists of BSA-certified instructors who grew up surfing these waters and know exactly where to find the best conditions for each skill level. Their teaching methodology combines water time with functional training using Drysurf and Gyroboards in their 200m2 gym, plus photo and video analysis to accelerate your progression. What sets Lanzarote Surf apart is their guarantee: if you do not learn to surf in 5 days, they refund your money. With perfect surfing conditions year-round (water temperatures between 20-25C even in winter) and over 7,500 students annually, they have the experience to back up that promise. The surf houses are spread across four properties in Famara, all within walking distance of the beach, restaurants, and the surf school. Each house features fully equipped kitchens, common areas with TV, BBQ zones, and sunny terraces. The atmosphere is social and welcoming - most guests arrive solo and leave with friends from around the world. Whether you are a complete beginner, looking to improve your intermediate skills, or want a special experience like their girls-only or couples camps, they adapt their programs to your goals. They also offer diving courses and kitesurfing for those who want to explore other water sports.
