Surfing Safety
Natural ability, fitness, practise all these factors influence the speed at which we learn to surf & everyone learns at a different pace. This is why groups are kept really small and the courses follow a proven step-by-step approach to surfing. Once you've completed the beginner course and your ability has been assessed by a qualified instructor, you can either rent equipment or continue your lessons with an intermediate course.

The Surfing Courses
The surfing instructors and coaches at the Cape Verde Surf School can teach you how to surf or give you professional advice and tips on improving your style. There are different surfing courses available depending on your level of ability: Newbies/Beginners, Intermediate or Advanced. After each course you will be assessed on what you've been taught to ensure that you have understood and can perform the things you have learnt.
