Unprofessional
My partner and I booked a double through nomad surfes. We arrived, we checked in a la escuela and after a “macaronic” conversation (I’m Italian, we spoke in Spanish and I probably didn’t understand everything perfectly) we found ourselves in a double room with 2 bunk beds!!!! I called the Escuela, the mistake may have been mine for not having understood Spanish perfectly, but I was told, in an arrogant and unprofessional way, that I had now accepted, that I had been told (very quickly and after all the data entry and payment). Fact is, that I had booked and reserved a double with a lot of mail with photos! And when I went back to school they told me that the real problem is that there were no more marriages...!!! NON-PROFESSIONAL SERVICE. Boys who unfortunately do not know what it means to work and relate to the public. Excellent surf lesson with Pedro.

Excellent surf school and quality instruction
The standard of instruction is exemplary. The high quality tuition helped with progression and I would not hesitate to recommend the school and the staff. Good equipment and fun surf sessions.

Fun based on flow
Great experience, it is not the first time we teach there. The truth is that the teachers are the best, they teach a method and connect with you, great professionals. Special mention to Huevo and Chipi. Ask about them. Two very different styles, great quality.

2 day surf course: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Bilbao.
How much does 2 day surf course cost?
+
Prices start at $80 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Bilbao usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does 2 day surf course take?
+
Plan for about 4 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Bilbao is not rushed.
Is 2 day surf course worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 66 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.4/5 across 20 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Bilbao, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule 2 day surf course?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is 2 day surf course suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 4-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book 2 day surf course?
+
Around 7 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Bilbao can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Bilbao and add a light layer if any part of the 4-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does 2 day surf course start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Bilbao within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Bilbao?
+
On Outty we rank every Bilbao experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include The Award-Winning Bilbao Food Tour & Wine Pairing by Basque Local, Bilbao Food Tour: Pintxos, Drinks, and Tapas with a Local, Dragonstone, Mundaka and Guernica from Bilbao. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Bilbao?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Bilbao?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
What is included in 2 day surf course?
+
Included: Surfboard + neoprene + instructor + Civil Liability Insurance. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Where is the meeting point for 2 day surf course?
+
The Cantabrian Surf School is right on the beach. Hotel pickup is not included, so plan your own transport and arrive 15 minutes early.
What languages is 2 day surf course offered in?
+
It is offered in English, Italian and French. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.
Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for 2 day surf course?
+
Confirmation is sent by the operator after booking, usually within 48 hours; if it is not confirmed you are not charged. Mobile tickets are accepted, so you can show the voucher on your phone.
Is 2 day surf course wheelchair or stroller accessible?
+
The operator notes: Not recommended for pregnant travelers. If accessibility is critical, contact the operator after booking to confirm arrangements for your date.
What happens to 2 day surf course if the weather is bad?
+
This experience depends on good weather. If it is canceled because of poor weather, you are offered a different date or a full refund.
