The perfect place to surf and slow down It has been a wonderful experience and highly recommended. I went alone and from the first moment I felt very comfortable, with a close and welcoming environment, perfect to disconnect, rest and focus on surfing.The surfcamp is in a quiet village that totally invites disconnection. In the afternoons you can tour the island if you like, although it is advisable to organize well according to the time of year.I did 4 hours of surfing a day, which a priori may seem like a lot, but they are divided into two blocks with half an hour of rest, which makes it get along better. It allows you to take it easier, better assimilate what you have learned and practice longer.If the idea is to get to know the island, I would recommend 2 hours of surfing a day, especially in months like December, when nightfall is around 18:30 and the time in the afternoon is more limited. However, if your goal is to improve in surfing and also have time for yourself, 4 hours a day is super good.The house is very nice and comfortable, but certainly the best are the instructors: small groups, close treatment, very professional, attentive and fun. They promote that you have fun while you improve and that makes a difference.Definitely a place I would return to and I totally recommend.

Good atmosphere, personal treatment, wonderful experience I have just returned from Lanzarote, where I have spent three days and four nights on my own in one of the surf houses of Calima. The experience included four hours a day of surf lessons, a photo session and access to the gym to work the technique.I had already been with them a year ago for a two-hour loose class and I really liked it, so I was clear that I wanted to come back, this time to live the full experience.Everything has been very positive. The surf lessons stand out especially: the teachers are excellent, both on a personal and professional level, always attentive and with very specific and personalized indications to improve.The house is very cozy, with spacious, clean and well organized common areas. In addition, there was a very good atmosphere among guests and it was easy to meet people with whom to share excursions and plans around the island.I leave very satisfied and eager to repeat.Thank you very much, Calima 🙂

Great experience I spent nearly a week taking surfing lessons with Calima, 4 hours a day every day. Most of the times I had Nikol as instructor and she was great, always willing to give you advises to improve, great attitude and paying attention to all, caring for all. Miky was also great, but all instructors are very well prepared with nice attitude and you will see improvements for sure surfing with them. Calima guest house was also perfect, few minutes walk from everything, definitely I will be back!
