Summary: Highly recommended! From the first contact you notice that these people want to convey the passion and art of surfing. Clear and friendly communication in advance, warm welcome on site. More than enough parking and an outdoor shower to rinse off the excess sand afterwards. During the lessons themselves, you will not only learn how to surf, but you will also be presented with the necessary warming exercises as safety rules. Even the correct handling of the material is an important point that is discussed. Everyone was super friendly and the coaches are really top. We immediately booked a second session after a first session. That was also no problem for Surf Mama School. 👌

Summary: Fantastic surf experience by a family including a teen. First, Surf Mama school is great in their communications — timely and detailed on where to meet and what to expect. Second, our teacher (Alex) was super friendly and excellent in his instructions; short theory on the beach then learning while doing. Last, next to us there was a big group while we were with just us: you could see how much more and quicker we learned because all the attention was for us. Thank you!
