"The best Surf experience I had so far. The most friendly owners of the camp you could imagine. They are always looking after you, whilst giving you your space too. Homecooked meals both in the morning and for dinner. Going out together for lunch and special dinner on the weekend, picknick and dinner at a cliff, watching the sunset with the hole group whilst grabbing some beers, ciders or something else"

"I've already been to several surf camps, but this one really blasted me away - I came here twice and plan to come back again!! The place was great, the vibe is amazing and the effort Maggie and Josh gave really just lifted my experience up to the next level. I can only whole-heartedly recommend this place to everyone."
