Gut für Anfänger, super Strand
Die Surflehrer sind sehr hilfsbereit und jede konnte am Ende der 2h wenigstens kurz auf dem Bord stehen. Ich empfehle sehr die 2h danach noch weiterzumachen, da man dann erst wirklich Zeit (und Platz) hat zu üben und in eigenem Tempo zu lernen. Unbedingt muss man die Surflehrer am Strand darauf hinweisen, wenn man das Professional Photo Paket gebucht hat, von mir haben sie leider gar keine Bilder in Aktion gemacht, weil sie dachten, dass eh keiner Bilder kaufen würde. Das ist wirklich schade. Aber sonst wars gut. Der Strand ist wirklich klasse. Achtung es gibt keine Dusche vor Ort!

Must Do!
Der Surfkurs ist mehr als nur zu empfehlen! Nach nichtmal 2h im Wasser waren wir in der Lage, auf dem Brett zu stehen und "zu fahren". Super Location, top Ausrüstung und super freundliches Personal. Leichter kann man surfen nicht lernen!

Super Vormittag
Wir hatten einen netten Surflehrer für uns allein, der uns zunächst die Regel erklärte und uns anschließend im Wasser beim fangen der besten Welle unterstützt hat. Insgesamt hat der Kurs vielen Spaß gemacht und wir hatten einen tollen Vormittag.
