LOCATION & GETTING HERE
Location
The camp is located in Ajo – Cantabria – Spain, a privileged area, with two beaches that receive the sea during the summer, guaranteeing optimal conditions for the initiation and improvement of our students. One of the beaches “Antuerta” is more sheltered and protected from the wind and sea sweels for students who start surfing and their first lessons. The big beach “Cuberris” receives a little more swell, ensuring waves every day of the year since in other locations in Spain there are no waves to be able to surf.
From these two beaches there is a National Surf Champion, Michel Velasco, that is part of our managers.
The camp is located in a quiet village, next to the beaches. Nearby there are restaurants and bars of nearby campsites, some hotel and ice cream shops. The town is 15 minutes walk where there are all services: supermarkets, pharmacies, surf shops, etc.
