Surf Camp for Adults

Ages and atmosphere of the surf camp for children

If you're between 8 and 17 years old, this is the surf camp for you. Whether you already surf or are just starting out, we have a program specifically designed for you. The only requirement to enjoy our surf camps for children and teenagers is knowing how to swim and having a desire to have fun and learn.

At our surf camp for kids, the safety of the boys and girls is our top priority. We have internal regulations that must be signed by parents or legal guardians. You will receive this document once you complete your booking on our website or by phone.

Artsurfcamp surf camp facilities for children

Discover our unique facilities at the ArtSurfcamp surf camp and school for children and adults. We offer our students our hostel right on the idyllic Razo beach, just 100 meters from the waves, in the municipality of Carballo, A Coruña, on Galicia's Costa da Morte (Coast of Death).

The surf hostel has capacity for 61 people spread over three floors, and features shared rooms for 6, 8, and 10 people, each with its own shower and toilet area, as well as two terraces where you can share special moments with your fellow campers.

The rooms are spacious and all have large windows. They also include individual lockers with keys to securely store your belongings and valuables.

The facilities comply with all current regulations and hold all necessary licenses. We have a front and back terrace where we hold supplementary classes such as video presentations, wave training, and workshops that will help you expand your knowledge of surfing and meteorology. In this room, you can also challenge your classmates to a table tennis tournament.

The surf school, located right on the beach, is where we store all the surfboards and where we change before and after each surf session. We also have our own kitchen. From our facilities, you can enjoy the sea views and share the breathtaking sunsets over Razo beach with your classmates, as well as discuss how your surf lessons went. You can also enjoy everything from an energizing breakfast to a delicious lunch or dinner after an intense day of surfing.

Location of the adults surf camp

At our adult surf camps, 7 km of beach await you, brimming with excellent surf breaks. It's one of the longest and highest quality beaches on the entire Atlantic coast of Europe, both for its waters and the services it offers. Lifeguard service is available all day, and we coordinate with them, as well as with the Carballo Town Hall, to ensure a pleasant experience on the beach and that everyone's safety is fully covered.

The adult surf camp is just 100 meters from the waves! Razo is a charming coastal village of 400 inhabitants, a very peaceful place where surfing is a year-round experience. It's the main beach in the municipality of Carballo, a town located just 9 km away with a population of over 31,000, a health center, and all the services of a small city. A Coruña is only 20 minutes from our facilities.

Surf lessons at the teen surf camp

Surf lessons are taught by instructors certified by the Galician Surf Federation or the Spanish Surf Federation. They are professional surfers who are passionate about what they do and who also excel at teaching.

Our surf school is structured around three different levels: beginner, intermediate, and advanced. Depending on your skill level, we have a surf camp for children specially designed for your ability. For quality sessions, surf groups maintain a ratio of 6 children per instructor. In the morning, we offer a 2-hour lesson. In the afternoon, during supervised surfing, we choose the best wave and tide conditions to make the most of the waves at Razo. In all children's surf camp sessions, the supervised surfing portion is led and supervised by our team of instructors so that the children feel safe and connected with our staff, thus fully enjoying their experience with us.

The priority is to fully enjoy the waves at Razo, but on occasions when the swell, wind, and tide conditions aren't suitable for surfing, we'll do some of the activities included in the children's surf camp program: surfing, of course, surf skating on our woodwave deck, mini ramp, slacklining, educational and safety workshops, surf-adapted training, and beach games.

Do I need to know how to surf to come to the surf camps for boys and girls? No, you just need to know how to swim. We're a school/camp that offers surf courses for all levels: from beginner to advanced. Just bring your suitcase full of fun and a desire to improve. We'll take care of the rest.

Activities at surf camps for children and teenagers

To help you get the most out of your stay, we've designed a fantastic program of parallel activities. Our teaching methodology covers all aspects of surfing, but Artsurfcamp is much more than just a surf camp. We help our students better understand weather forecasts in our wave formation courses, improve their technique through video analysis sessions, boost their physical fitness with stretching sessions, and guide them through functional training sessions so they can train safely and independently. Finally, if you plan to continue surfing, we'll put all our expertise at your disposal to help you choose the equipment best suited to your needs.

The camp activities go even further: skateboarding, environmental workshops, hiking, tarp surfing, beach volleyball tournaments, longskate slalom, surfskating, evening events, and much more are all part of the weekly schedule at our surf camps for children and teenagers. Fun is guaranteed every day!

Menu at surf camps for children and teenagers

We offer a varied diet with a menu specifically designed by a dietician and prepared in our kitchen by our professional team of chefs. It's plentiful, flavorful, varied, and includes plenty of fruit. Good fish, meat, vegetables, and pasta are all staples of the Galician diet. We start the day with a varied and energizing breakfast. Lunch and dinner consist of two courses, water, bread, dessert, and fresh fruit is always available.

How to get to the camp

You can arrive on your own, or if you prefer, we can pick you up from the airport or the bus and/or train stations in A Coruña or Santiago de Compostela. Our team of professionals will be waiting for the children and teenagers upon their arrival in A Coruña or Santiago de Compostela with an ARTSURFCAMP sign. Once we have picked them up, we will take them to the camp.

Arrival day is very important, so we recommend that the children arrive in the morning so they have time to explore the facilities, meet their new friends, and participate in the children's surf camp presentation, which will be at 4:00 PM.

Professionalism

As parents, our children's safety is our top priority. That's why our summer surf camps have a team of qualified professionals, including the director and activity leaders, who are always on hand to ensure the safety of the children. They are available 24/7, ready to assist the young campers with anything they need, fostering a harmonious and fun environment, and ensuring that the camp's rules are followed. The entire team stays in the hostel. For added security, we have a video surveillance system. Safety and fun go hand in hand at Artsurfcamp.
