Every coach is a qualified surf instructor and a trained beach lifeguard. You need to swim 50 meters; nothing more.

Two quick answers

Can I come on my own?

Yes. About half our surfers come alone, and leave with a ride home to the campsite.

What do I bring?

A swimsuit, a towel and sun cream. We have the rest, in every size.
