About this tour
A 2-hour surf lesson on Lanzarote's coast with a school that has three decades of experience. You'll get a certified ISA instructor, board, wetsuit, and transport from the school to the beach. Lessons suit complete beginners through improvers, and children from age 6 can join (with adult supervision until age 10). The focus is on safe, structured tuition rather than a casual experience.
Highlights
- ISA-certified instructor and RLSS lifeguard supervision throughout
- Board and wetsuit provided; transport from school to beach included
- Suitable for ages 6+ with adult, unaccompanied from age 10
- Three decades of school experience on Lanzarote's breaks
- Beginners to improvers welcome; no prior experience needed
- Small group format; quality instruction prioritised over volume

What to expect
You'll meet at the surf school and receive your wetsuit and board. Transport takes you to the beach, where your certified instructor will brief you on water safety, board handling, and basic technique before you enter the water. Expect hands-on coaching in the shallows and progressively deeper sections over roughly 90 minutes of active practice. You'll finish back at the school; the full session runs 2 hours including travel time.
The lesson covers paddling, pop-up (standing), positioning, and wave selection. The instructor will stay with your group in the water and give real-time feedback. Don't expect to be a confident surfer by the end—this is foundational technique over a single session.

Good to know
This suits anyone keen to try surfing in a supported setting, from nervous first-timers to those with some board sports background seeking formal coaching. It's not recommended if you have poor cardiovascular fitness; surfing is physically demanding. Children under 10 must be supervised by an adult. Beach conditions vary by day (swell, wind, temperature), so flexibility helps. The lesson price does not include hotel pickup; add €20 per person for round-trip collection. Group sizes aren't specified but expect a small cohort given the emphasis on instruction quality. Public transport is available nearby if you prefer independent travel to the school.
