A-Frame
Surfcamp &
Yoga Retreat
in El Palmar/ Andalusia

If you're looking for a surf vacation for beginners, our beginner surf course is your perfect introduction to the world of surfing. We start very slowly and feel our way forward step by step. Our surf instructors teach in small groups and are with you the whole time. You will also receive a video analysis and learn in the surf theory classes how waves are created, what sandbanks and currents are all about and what types of surfboards there are. Our photographer will accompany you on your first attempts at standing up on the surfboard if you wish.

Ideal surf spots for beginners

The surf spots here in the area are perfect for beginners thanks to the beach break. This means that the waves break on a sandbank and there are no rocks in the way. Ideal for beginners to learn how to surf. Our house beach is right next to the surf camp, so you can practice in the water yourself at any time between surf lessons.

First we practice on the beach and then in the white water.

In our surf courses in El Palmar, we differentiate between beginner, intermediate and advanced courses. This means that all guests who want to learn to surf with us receive the ideal course for them. If you have already completed the beginners' course or have mastered the take-off in white water without any problems, the advanced course at our surf school is the right course for you.

The advanced surf course in El Palmar

The advanced surf course follows on from the beginners' course. Have you already gained some experience on the water and stood on the board a few times? Then this is the right surf course for you. Now we're going to tackle the so-called green wave. You'll see that it's a big difference to white water. It finally feels like surfing.
The advanced surf course at A-Frame is not only designed to be fun, but also to ensure that you feel comfortable and safe in the water, even without a surf instructor. That's why we focus mainly on correct line-up behavior and surfing green waves. In the advanced surf course, you will learn the following:

• The take-off in the green wave

• The parallel take-off (paddling to the right or left)

• It is very important how to position yourself correctly in the line-up

• We will give you crucial tips and tricks and analyze on land and in a video analysis what you can do even better

The advanced course is for anyone who can already surf green waves and wants to work on new maneuvers.

You want to know? Surf course for advanced surfers.

Have you been surfing for a while and feel comfortable and confident? Do you have a good take-off and know the rules of the line-up? Then it's time for our advanced surf course. In this course, our surf instructors will work with you on your surfing technique and analyze on land and in a video analysis what you can do even better.

Are you going on a yoga trip with us? Never been surfing before? Then this is your chance! Because here in Andalusia you have the very best conditions to gain your first experience on a surfboard. We have fantastic conditions for beginners in El Palmar all year round. Either the waves are wonderfully small or we use the white water. Andalusia also offers you endless long, secluded beaches, plenty of space to practise surfing, relaxed people, highly trained surf instructors... Plus, our yoga and surf camp is right on the beach.

Who is the surf taster course for?

The surf taster course is primarily aimed at all A-frame holidaymakers who have booked a yoga trip with us and would like to try surfing in addition to yoga. Best of all: the surf taster course is free of charge. Don't miss out on this opportunity. If you enjoy surfing, you can spontaneously book an extra day.

In addition to surf courses for small groups, we also offer private surf coaching. In the private lessons, you have the surf instructor all to yourselves (or in pairs if you wish). These surf courses are more intensive than group courses and usually achieve the greatest effect. In a private surf coaching session, we start with your personal surfing level, so beginners, intermediates and advanced surfers are all welcome.

Content of the surf course

The surf instructor will determine your level with the help of a preliminary analysis so that they can start exactly where you are at. The surf instructor will go into the water with you during the surf lessons and also film you on land. This mix of coaching in the sea and video analysis allows us to make the greatest possible progress with you. For surf courses lasting several days, surf students receive individually tailored "surf homework" if required and desired so that they can continue practising after the course.
