At a La Oliva Surf Camp, you’ll get the chance to push your limits and fully embrace the surf lifestyle. No matter your skill level, you’ll join surf sessions tailored to your abilities and needs. Guided by expert instructors, you’ll sharpen your technique and perfect your stance, helping you progress fast.
Lessons typically start with a brief introduction to get to know each other and the goals for the session. Then you’ll stretch to improve stamina and prepare your muscles for physical effort. Also, the instructors will explain the essential safety precautions to keep in mind when surfing in the conditions on that day. Some camps may also offer video analysis to further enhance your learning experience.
After the surf lessons (3-4 hours), you’ll have plenty of free time for optional activities. Or you might partake in yoga classes, which are ideal for relaxing the muscles, building flexibility, and improving your balance. Other camps might offer Spanish lessons, allowing you to build and improve your conversational skills with individual and group activities. Other options include going hiking, snorkeling, or exploring the area on boat trips.
As for accommodation, most surf camps offer bunk beds or private rooms in beachfront bungalows, surf houses, or lodges. And when it comes to meals, you should know that most packages don’t include any meals, which gives you the chance to take your taste buds on a tasty tour of the local eateries! Others, however, might include a meal, featuring Canarian specialties.
But what about the beaches? La Oliva has some of the best surf spots in Fuerteventura.
From El Cotillo to the Harbour Wall, the North Track has rocky, volcanic off-road terrain and offers numerous rock reef breaks. Hierro is a left-hand break that works at high tide, while nearby, the Bubble is the stuff of legends with sharp take off and right-hand barrels. Another gem on the North Track is Generosa, a left-hand rock reef break.
El Cotillo is a favorite among beginners and intermediates, with its long, peeling waves and soft sandy bottom. Piedra Playa, Playa de Escaleras, and La Concha are all excellent choices. More experienced surfers prefer spots like Punta Blanca and Mejillones where fast, hollow waves provide the perfect challenge. For something truly special, Los Lobos, a small island off the coast, offers one of Europe’s longest right-hand waves.
To make the most of your Surf Holiday, it’s ideal to time it right. While it’s possible to surf in La Oliva all year round, the best season runs from October to April. This is when the powerful Atlantic swells roll in with bigger, more consistent waves. Summer (May to September) is ideal for beginners, offering smaller, friendlier waves.
Let the waves guide your next adventure at a Surf Camp in La Oliva!
