Our story
The surf family, between waves, courage and lots of love
In 2000, it all began in a simple way: a beach tent, a surfboard and a dream. We left the security of a steady job to bet on what we loved most: surfing.
We started small. We've been through a beach tent, a trailer, a car garage and, little by little, we grew, put down roots and built stories. We were the first surf school on the island to operate all year round, even through the winter, believing from the start that surfing could be more than a summer sport: it could be a way of life.
Through surfing, we raised our children and built our family around the sea. And what started as a family by blood became a much bigger family, made up also of students who came and stayed.
So Surf Family is not just a surf school.
It's a real family, one that lives the essence of surfing and passes it on to you: living by doing what we love, surrounded by people we love.
