Our surf school in Gran Canaria
Founder of
South Coast Surf School
My name is Daniel, founder of the Surf School Gran Canaria. Since I was very young, I have been very close to the sea, its greatness, energy and immense power caught me from the first moment, leading me to practice surfing, a sport that today is not only my greatest passion, but has also marked the person I am.
With more than 35 years surfing in different parts of the world, I have learned that surfing is not just a sport, but a way of life that teaches us to respect and connect with nature. At South Coast Surf School, as well as teaching you how to surf, you will also learn to enjoy the sea with respect and passion. For me, values such as honesty, empathy, patience and respect are fundamental, both in and out of the water.
Why did I choose Gran Canaria for my surf school?
Gran Canaria is a unique place, with amazing beaches and perfect waves to learn and enjoy surfing. After travelling and surfing in different seas all over the world, I decided that Gran Canaria would be the perfect place to open my school.
Here, in the south of Gran Canaria, the conditions are ideal for all types of surfers, from beginners to experienced surfers. At South Coast Surf School, I offer you not only high quality surf lessons, but also an authentic experience, surrounded by nature and in a friendly atmosphere.
Surfing is much more than a sport
A good friend of mine always says: ‘Water is life’. This is certainly a very apt phrase, since for me, surfing is not only a sport, but also a source of pure happiness. It’s that feeling of being in the water, the salt on your skin, the wind on your face and the connection with the sea that reminds us how small we are in this world. That’s why every lesson at our surf school in Gran Canaria not only teaches you how to surf, but also how to enjoy life in the sea.
In every wave I surf I find a reminder of everything that surfing has given me, patience, perseverance, humility, and, above all, the ability to enjoy every moment. And that is what I want to transmit to you, beyond the techniques and manoeuvres, at South Coast Surf School, you will learn to feel and respect the sea, so that each surf session is a transforming experience.
