The Surf
Surf School
This is an Official School of the Canarian Surf Federation, a seal of quality and the guarantee for participants to receive prime tuition and attention. We have the best equipment for all levels and we take you to the most beautiful beaches of the island! To give one week travellers a chance to get on the board, we have split the 10 days course in two blocks. The courses always starts on Mondays and both courses are running simultaneously. This means that you can always book the course you want. Since it's "the endless summer" in Fuerteventura, we offer all courses all year round.
All courses include transfer to surf spot & back to Corralejo, board, wetsuit, theoretical & practical lessons and insurance. All courses also include video feedback - students watch themselves on videotapes to improve their surfing. Depending on wave conditions and level of the students, courses will be held on different spots in the north of Fuerteventura, all within reach of maximum 20 minutes drive. All courses are held by experienced & qualified surf instructors who are E&A- qualified lifeguards as well.
Surf Spots
Year round consistent swells and spots holding waves at all levels await surfers in Fuerteventura, the second largest island of the Canarian archipelago. Fuerteventura looks like a piece of the Sahara desert dropped into the Atlantic and boasts more sandy beaches than any other island of the archipelago.
The northern tip of the island around Corralejo, just across from Lanzarote Island, is the main surfing area on the island, with miles sandy beach and reef breaks on both the western and eastern shores. A former fishing village converted into a modern resort, Corralejo has managed to preserve its charm and has a "surfing" atmosphere, with lots of surf shops, bars and restaurants. A popular destination with surfer is a boat day-trip to the small desert island of Isla de Lobos, just off the coast in front of Corralejo - a ferry leaves daily at 10 am and returns at 4 PM. From the jetty on Lobos, it is a long walk over to the spot. Named after its population of sea wolves, the island of Lobos is uninhabited and the wave breaks along the base of an old volcano.
In general, surf spots are well away from any tourist activity and only frequented by surfers. Waves are long and perfect and most are reef breaks. There are also very long sandy beaches, perfect for beginners. The water temperature varies between 18º C in winter and 22º C in summer and the weather is hot, very hot, with a 25ºC average in winter! Warm water all year long and people surf in shorts or spring suits! Fuerteventura and the Canary Isles are Europe's winter surfing ground, a mere two hour flight from Madrid and the mainland and just a bit longer from major European capitals.

Fuerteventura
Canary Islands
Known as the ”Fortunate Islands”, the Canary Islands enjoy a permanent spring like, subtropical climate cooled by the Ocean breeze and the Trade Winds, with warm waters and consistent swell most of the year. Off the coast of Morocco, Spanish territory and outpost of the European Union, the Canary Islands are but a two hour flight from Madrid and the mainland. The "Hawaii of the Atlantic", as the islands are referred to by surfers, this volcanic archipelago is formed by seven islands. Main surf destinations are the two major islands of Tenerife and Gran Canaria, and the less populated islands of Fuerteventura and Lanzarote.
Fuerteventura
Fuerteventura is the second largest island but least populated of the Canarian archipelago. Ninety kilometres off Morocco and the African coast, it also enjoys the best climate of all the islands. The large number of sunny days and minimal rainfalls, as well as the topography of the terrain, has created Europe's only desert. Fuerteventura has the longest beach of the archipelago, formed by fine white sand from the nearby Sahara desert.
The island boasts three natural parks: the Dunas de Corralejo and Isla de Lobos to the north and the Jandia Peninsula to the south. In total, 40% of the island has been declared a national park and its natural state has been almost completely preserved.
Climate
Sub tropical, with warm winters and hot summers. Warm waters all year ! Best waves in winter, when the north and western swells come in.
