to find their feet are better off in Lanzarote, the coasts of which
are blessed with slow, shallow waves better suited to beginners." (Timeout

Surfing holidays are possibly the best choice of holiday, they are invigorating, fun, and full of adrenaline. You will get fit and learn alot about the ocean, waves, oceanography and more. It is advisable to be fit before you learn to surf and have good balance. The fitter you are the more fun you will have when learning to surf. Do not get put off by all the crazy places to surf, what you want when you learn is a gentle beach break, not a shore break on a beach, somewhere that has gentle waves and some white water that you can practise in, get to know your board, practise standing up on a surf board and progress slowly. Surfing holidays are a dream when they come right and will never be forgotten, it is a great way to travel, learn about nature and be happy. Surf holidays are difficult at first, do not get put off by how challenging learning to surf is, after a few surf lessons and if your lucky a whole beginners surf course, then you will be well on your way. It is a challenging and interesting sport that will change your life!
