About
We are an official surf school in the south of Gran Canaria. With the headquarters and classroom at the foot of the sand dunes of Maspalomas, we offer high-quality surf classes – from a one-day-experience for beginners to intermediate/advanced classed. Thanks to being mobile, we choose every day the best beach for learning depending on the conditions – great waves, fun and safe tuition at sandy beaches all around the island!

We rented two surfboards for a whole day, the guys were able to perfectly advise us on the most suitable board for us!
Sunny, kind and helpful!
In addition to the boards, they recommended a beautiful beach where we could try surfing and, patiently, they also helped us put the boards on the car!

If we return to Gran Canaria we will definitely come and visit you and also take lessons with you!

Good guys!

This is truly an amazing surf school. All the instructors had a lovely vibe, tremendous patience and skill and buckets of enthusiasm

We didn’t realise that we got about 30 high quality hi-res images of the three of us as well.

Quite simply brilliant!!!

Excellent for beginners and people (like me) needing a refresher.

Remember tho that no-one can control the sea - so you get whatever waves are available on the day you book. Although the school does flex it’s start times so you get the best of the conditions.

Highly recommend. Thanks again Kasperi and team ❤️

Since 6 years now we have taken some surf classes every year, the team of this surf school is absolutely amazing. You learn a lot even from day one on and it is always a lot of fun. The teachers are very professional and taking care of anyone in the group, also you get video analysis and photos from the day! We can absolutely recommend this great place, Ersin & Martina

Our kids age 13 and 16 went for a one-day surf lesson with Surf Canaries and enjoyed themself very much! They were picked up from the hotel, got some theory lessons, and two times one hour in the water with a picknick lunch on the beach in between. There are lots of instructors in the water to assist everyone and the groups are not that big. Lots of photo's are taken and shared free-to-use on Facebook.
And kids are exhausted in the evening, so you can plan a romantic evening with your partner :-)
Definitely recommended!

We together with my sister did 2 days of surfing with these amazing guys! And due to great instructions and help we were able to catch waves =) These days were really very impressive. I hope we will back and surf with them again one day. I will 100% recommend them, because we had a lot of fun and great experience!
One more important moment - they give some sandwitch to survive through the day, and you can always share it with the funniest dog, which is also the member of the team!

We enjoyed the surfing course given by Surf Canaries, and also they learned us a lot. Thanks to their learning method we were able to get on the surf boards very rapidly and enjoyed the waves of the sea. Certainly a place to return if we are back on the Island for surfing.

Whether you are a novice who wants to try surfing for the first time or more experienced, you won't find a better teacher than Samir at Surf Canaries. He was funny, helpful, supportive, so knowledgable and very generous with his advice. I had never surfed before and didn't know what to expect but now I can't wait to try again and put into practice all the tips I learned from Samir.

Lunch, local hotel transfers and all the equipment you need are included in the price and they even take photos of you that you can download for free afterwards.

When I go back to Gran Canaria I'll be booking more than one day with Surf Canaries - I can't wait!

Second time here and I can only confirm my first impression: genuinely good people! They opened a surf school because they really want to teach you something.
Even though all of them are great surfers themselves and their hearts surely bleed when they just see the great waves go by without riding them -- they will stand on your side in the water, helping you, pushing you, correcting you or at least make a joke if you repeated the same mistake for the 5th time.
I'm really grateful I found these people. Thanks again, I'll sure be back!
