FAQ

Before your lesson

What should I bring?

We bring the board and wetsuit — you bring swimwear, a towel, sunscreen and a good mood. We take care of the rest.

Do I need to know how to swim?

Yes, enough to feel comfortable in the water. Beginner lessons take place where you can stand.

What if the sea isn't good?

We change beach (we have the north and south coasts) or reschedule at no cost. We always confirm the day before.

Can I cancel?

Free cancellation up to 24 hours before. After that, we offer rescheduling.
