Surf Camps in Chile

Oh, decisions, decisions… Winter is knocking at our doorstep, now has already started to fall, and ski resorts are opening their doors for the season. At the same time, the surf is pumping too. How can you possibly pick one or the other?

South America is home to truly epic surf. With over 144,000 miles of coastline and just about every kind of wave imaginable, you can really take your pick. Most surf spots are never too crowded, and the countries are budget-friendly too.

Walking barefoot on a sandy beach, basking in the sun, jumping into the soothing warm water for a long surfing session, that sure is comforting. But where’s the challenge? Spending up to an hour struggling to get into that tight wetsuit, bone-chilling water splashing your face, getting rained and snowed on, that sounds like much more fun!

We’ve come a long way since the 1950s beach bum who would crash right on the shore and eschew creature comforts. No one expected surfers to actually get a job.
