Description

Context The Playas de Vera, located in Almería, offer a coastal environment with fine sand and gentle waves, ideal for those just starting out in surfing. The mostly sandy seabed, dotted with soft pebbles, creates safe conditions, while the constant sea breeze provides refreshing coolness. The local surf school employs certified instructors with over ten years of experience, seamlessly integrating theory and hands-on practice in every session.

The Experience The class begins on the sand, where you’ll learn basic techniques and safety rules. Then, suited in a neoprene wetsuit and mounted on a surfboard, you’ll enter the water to practice on small, rolling waves. The calming sound of the surf accompanies every attempt to stand and glide, as instructors provide real-time feedback to improve your balance and coordination.

For Whom This activity is ideal for complete beginners with moderate physical fitness who wish to safely explore surfing. It’s also well-suited for small groups or tourists seeking a guided water activity. Not recommended for those unable to swim or with no prior experience in water due to fear.

Local Context Vera is a coastal town with a long-standing tradition in outdoor recreation and peaceful tourism. The local community actively supports surfing as a growing sport, and the natural environment maintains a balance between leisure and conservation. Basic visitor services and accessible facilities are available for travelers.
