Element surf is a very nice place to stay and take surf lessons at. We spent 2 weeks in this area and I took private longboard surf lessons. It was a blast! Tina, my surf instructor is a mindful, empathetic and magnificent person. She was actually my first teacher who was able to dive deep into mental coaching concerning surf blockages. I will definitely come back and jump on this path of mastery 🙏🏻
Maximilian
Wonderful holiday. Great team, super surf instructors, great food, fascinating landscapes, simple but top rooms, everyone very nice, guests also super nice, you get to know each other super quickly, everyone relaxed, everyone up for a great holiday. The equipment is top, the bikes are great and the activities are very exciting.
Nadine
1A surf camp or surf course. I can only recommend it! Very competent coaches and a great team at the camp. The theory lessons also complemented the lessons in the water perfectly. We stayed at the neighbouring campsite because we couldn’t be at the camp itself due to our pawsome family member. But everything worked out wonderfully. Would love to come back again. 🙂
Marco
I did my very first surf course here in August 2021 and was super excited. All my fears of the waves, the sea and the sport itself were taken away from me here. The whole team was super nice, super professional, motivated and always helpful and considerate. Everyone is welcome here, no matter what level.
Benjamin
Was here in mid-July and was a mega experience. The team was super friendly and helpful. The food was very good and the accommodation was cosy. The surf instructors are very competent and the theory lesson complemented the practical knowledge well. The location with the two nearby beaches is favourable. Super surf camp! Highly recommended!

1A surf camp and surf course. I can only recommend it! Very competent coaches and a great team at the camp. The theory lessons were also a great complement to the lessons in the water. We stayed at the neighbouring campsite because we couldn’t stay at the camp itself due to our four-legged family member. But everything worked out wonderfully. We would love to come back again. 🙂

I took my first surfing course in August 2021 and loved it. My fear of waves and the sport was taken away. The team was friendly, professional and helpful. All levels are welcome. The surf camp is beautifully located and offers many activities. The yoga classes on the beach and the massage were great, as was the surf skate course. Thanks again to everyone, I’ll be in touch tomorrow to enquire about another course this year. 🙂
Benjamin
I was here in mid-July and had an amazing experience. The team was super friendly and helpful. The food was delicious and the accommodation was comfortable. I can recommend both camping and staying in a room. The surf instructors are very knowledgeable and the theory lessons complemented the practical knowledge well. There is always entertainment provided, and if you don’t feel like it, there are many other activities to pursue. The location with two nearby beaches is advantageous. Great surf camp! Highly recommended!
