Description
We focus on doing one thing well: proper surf lessons, with attention to detail and real progression.
Our surf school is located directly at the foot of the Maspalomas dunes in Playa del Inglés, as close to the beach as it gets. When conditions are right, the local beach break offers very good waves for learning and improving.
We work with a permanent team of qualified instructors and keep our groups small — maximum 5 students per instructor. This allows us to adapt each session to the level and goals of every surfer, whether it’s your first time or you already have experience.
Small groups, local knowledge, and consistent instructors make the difference — and lead to a relaxed, enjoyable surf day with real progress.

Amazing experience
An amazing experience, perfect both for complete beginners and for those who already have some basic surfing skills. After a short theoretical and practical introduction, it’s time to hit the water!
You are divided into small groups so that everyone can receive the attention and guidance they need. We were lucky enough to be with Marta, and we absolutely loved her! She was super attentive, friendly, and always made sure everyone was having fun while learning. Passionate, patient, and truly caring!
Definitely an experience worth trying. Four hours that are suitable for everyone, full of fun and great vibes!

A school that leaves a mark ♥️
If you come to Gran Canaria and want your children to live a real surfing experience, this is, without a doubt, a safe bet. Martina and Lucas have been repeating with them every time we come to Gran Canaria and this year, we have trusted them again. And we will do it again whenever we can. 🥰From the first moment they make you feel at home. They are approachable, affectionate, and it is very clear that they enjoy teaching and, above all, that they love children. Candela and David are wonderful: they have enormous patience, connect with them great, and make them learn while they have fun. First they explain the theory part at their place, right next to the beach, and then comes the best part: into the water to enjoy and learn to surf. The classes are incredible and they are attentive to the children at all times, doing everything possible so that they feel safe, happy, and capable of achieving it. 🏄♂️🏄♀️For us, they are already part of our summers in Gran Canaria. We are leaving super grateful, with a ton of good memories and with the peace of mind of knowing that we have left our children in the best hands, oh and with some incredible photos that they work hard on. Thank you for making everything so easy and so beautiful. ❤️ Keep it up, because what you do shows, and a lot. We recommend you to all our friends! Of course, we will keep coming back. See you next summer! 🌊☀️🏄♀️🏄♂️Ruth and Sergio. Madrid.

Highly recommended, top👌☀️🌊🏄
5 days beginner course, muscles hurt, but we all surfed successfully!
The team at Surf Canaries is great - competent, professional, very friendly, patient, motivating and humorous.
The surf material is very good, there is an orange and water daily and the wetsuits are also washed daily.
Emphasis is placed on technique and progress, everyone receives personal Feetback.
Highly recommended! Top 👍🏻

Very clear and helpful, great experience
It was awesome!
Martha really knows what she is talking about. She explained it all very clearly, she was nice, chill and understanding. She helped us in the first part but we could also try individually to catch the right waves.
Really really recommend!
Operator response
Great to hear you had such a good session! I’ll pass your kind words on to Marta — she’ll be really happy to hear that. Hope to see you back in the water with us again! :)
