Extra Details about the Windsurf Camp:

  • The Windsurf  courses will always take place on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday (8 or 12 hours per week).
  • The Windsurf School Spin Out is situated directly on Playa Valdevaqueros beach, which is a very safe spot, also offering an alternative lagoon, even when wind conditions are not ideal or very strong. On days when the wind blows less, the thermal wind increases its strength in the afternoons, allowing for windsurf lessons to go ahead as planned. It is extremely rare that a lesson cannot take place! On very windy days safety measures are in place to ensure that less experienced windsurfers do not practise on the sea. In these cases the Windsurf school has the option to switch the windsurf classes to the nearby lagoon.
  • On Wednesdays and Saturdays the teens from the windsurfing participate in the same summer cultural or sport activities as the teens from the Kitesurf Camp and the Wingsurf Camp. There is no windsurfing on these days or on Sundays.
  • A detailed schedule will be sent upon request, and to all students enrolled in the Windsurf summer Camp (sent alongside the confirmation).
