My time at the surf camp was chaotic to say the least but I had a wonderful time. There's a nice balance between chill days and busy excursions/nights out. There are so many people coming in and out of camp you are bound to find some amazing friends but it definitely can be overwhelming at times and is important to find your own routine to not get exhausted from it all. A great way to spend a few weeks in what would otherwise be a very expensive part of the surf camp

Magical experience. I can't think of how it could have been any better and I can't thank the surf camp's staff enough for providing this experience. If you feel like you want to connect with new people, visit incredible beaches, make excursions to the nature, learn how to surf, meditate, get to know yourself better and still enjoy lots of parties, then this is the place to go. The age span from the people there is between 18-25 and everyone shares the same energy, so making friends is really easy. Tasks aren't hard, beds are comfortable and if you have the chance, don't miss a single Flunkyball.
