    The surf class was great! The instructor was super friendly, and the tips and tricks were very useful. The only fault I could find is there was a lot of people doing classes on the same part of the beach so sometimes they get in the way (although it isn't really something the surf school can control). Very recommendable experience!

    The instructor was not very attentive. Still had fun but had hoped for more help from the instructor while in the water.

    Nice

    Big thanks to the coach Joel. He helped a lot on the water and paid a lot of attention to everyone, supported and motivated. Surfing appears to be not so easy, ahahahah:) nice experience!

    Such a great experience! All of the staff were super friendly and very cool, you can tell they're very passionate about surfing! I would recommend booking this for early in your holiday as there's a good chance you'll want to go again and there's a photo analysis at the end were they show you how to improve your surfing! I will definitely come back and give it another go the next time I'm in Tenerife, I'm even inspired to try surfing when I get home to freezing Ireland! 😂💗

    Great afternoon surf lesson

    Awesome afternoon surf lesson! They were really friendly and refreshed us with the theory first before hitting the water. After the session, hot tea and biscuits were waiting for us while reviewing pictures of us surfing and discussing our technique and mistakes.

    Amazing experience

    Maurizio has been a very great and dedicated instructor.He guided as with very helpful hints.The team I was with was great as well

    First time surfing

    David_W, Oct 2021
    Booked this with my girlfriend. Neither of us had any surfing experience but the instructor was great and the boards are made for beginners. Definitely requires a degree of fitness but such a nice way to spend a morning on holiday.

    Surf, surf, suuuurf!

    Federica_F, Jun 2021
    Very good experience for a first time, Sasha is an extraordinary instructor! Gorgeous day and lovely people, nothing better to manage to stand up on the board for the very first time!

    Nice experience

    Response from Host, Mar 2021

    Viktorija, thanks a lot! It was a pleasure surfing with you guys and hope to see you soon again.

    Una clase muy profesional

    Elena_R, May 2024
    Me gustó mucho! Es profesor estuvo muy atento en todo momento y nos explicó todo muy bien. Muy bien organizado (en la tienda hay baño, ducha, taquillas para dejar tus cosas durante la clase y un vestidor), la clase se hace en una franja de la playa de las Américas, a derecha e izquierda hay otras escuelas de surf. En total fueron dos horas y media, una hora en el agua, así que nos dio tiempo a hacerlo todo tranquilamente (la práctica de la posición en la tabla la hicimos en la escuela al principio, luego en el mar y al final el feedback viendo nuestras fotos con un té calentito). Súper bien, me encantó Tenerife Sur Point!!

    Super Surf-Erlebnis

    Super tolle Surf-Erfahrung, auch für Anfänger die noch nie auf einem Surfbrett gestanden sind, sehr gut geeignet. Viel Hilfe durch den sehr freundlichen Guide.

    Wir haben Ende September an einem Surfkurs teilgenommen. Der Surflehrer war sehr nett und kompetent. Nach einer kurzen Theorieeinheit, ging es raus aufs Meer. Dort gelangen uns die ersten Ritte auf den Wellen. Wir hatten viel Spaß und können die Surfschule nur empfehlen!

    Super Klasse
