Surf Lessons in Las Américas – Taught by Real Surfers
Local knowledge. Ocean experience. A method built over years in Las Américas.
Since 2008, our team – Andrés, Daniel, Juri, Deme, Dimitrii, and Mari – has been learning this ocean the hard way. Not by reading about it, but by falling, timing the sets, and spending thousands of hours in the breaks of Las Américas. That local knowledge is what we bring to every lesson. In a spot like Tenerife South, knowing exactly where to be and when the conditions are right is the difference between a frustrating session and catching your first real wave.
We do not believe in one-size-fits-all surfing. If you are a beginner, you get a calm, clear introduction that makes sense in your body – not just in theory. If you have surfed before, you get honest feedback and the technical adjustments – stance, timing, habits – that actually make a difference. Families get a format that works for everyone at once, and everyone leaves the water tired, happy, and ready to come back.
When the waves are quiet, your progress does not stop. eFoil, surfskate sessions, and Mari’s Saturday yoga classes build the mobility, balance, and body control that carry directly into your next session in the water.
If you are looking for a surf school Tenerife where the teaching is personal, the knowledge is local, and the team genuinely cares about your first wave – you are in the right place. Come meet us at the Surf Café and let’s get you in the water.

Surf School Tenerife – Las Americas
Your first “Surf Tenerife” lesson can start right now. Before you arrive, take a look at the local forecast – it is the same information our instructors use every morning to plan the day. Check the current wave forecast for Las Américas to see swell size, wind, and conditions at our break. Then check the tide chart for Tenerife – the tide shapes how the waves behave, and knowing it helps you choose the right window for your level.
