Such an amazing experience!
Such an amazing experience! From start to finish this trip was fantastic! Paul went above and beyond to make this trip happen for us from changing the timings of the lesson to giving us taxi advice plus help with transfers and more. Super helpful and so much appreciated! Rebecca was a fantastic teacher and she was so encouraging and enthusiastic with my 13 year old son. Her instructions were clear, easy to follow and she made it so much fun! The length of the trip was great and the snacks and drinks most definitely helped to refuel us all. All of the equipment was in great condition too. I'm so glad that we chose this company for our first family surfing experience! Highly recommended!
Response from the operator: Dear Emma, Thank you so much for such a wonderful review! It was a real pleasure to help organize everything and make your first family surfing experience in Gran Canaria as smooth and enjoyable as possible. We’re especially happy to hear that your 13-year-old son had such a great time with Rebecca. We’ll definitely share your kind words with her — she’ll be delighted! Thank you as well for mentioning the transfers, equipment, snacks, and drinks. We always try to take care of all the details so families can simply relax, enjoy the ocean and focus on having fun. It was a pleasure having you with us, and we hope to see you all surfing again in Gran Canaria someday! Warm regards, Paul & the Pro Surfing Gran Canaria Team

Amazing experience!!! Highly recommended
Amazing experience for my young daughter who was a complete beginner. The school is very responsive and helpful providing fast responses to queries. We were picked up from hotel in time every day and driven to shop where the instructors ensured the suits fit properly and we were given clear instructions as to the next steps. Ezequiel was absolutely amazing, knowledgeable, friendly and immensely helpful so couldn’t be in better hands. Their care and attention throughout the lessons and contagious enthusiasm for the sport was well received and their surfing vibe is tremendous! Some complimentary pics of the session were shared which was a great gesture! We were dropped off at our hotel after the session and a snack and a drink were provided which was spot on! Amazing service and we wish we could have stayed for longer to have more lessons!! Highly recommended!
Response from the operator: Dear Claudia, Thank you so much for this amazing and detailed review! We’re really happy to hear that your daughter had such a positive first surfing experience with us. A special thank you for your kind words about Ezequiel. We’ll make sure he sees your review — he’ll be delighted to know that his attention, knowledge and enthusiasm helped make your daughter feel comfortable and confident in the water. We’re also very glad that you appreciated the hotel transfers, equipment preparation, snacks, drinks and complimentary photos. We always try to make the whole experience easy and enjoyable from the moment we pick you up until we bring you back to the hotel. It was a real pleasure having you with us, and we only wish you could have stayed longer too! 😊 We hope to welcome you and your daughter back to Gran Canaria for more lessons and more waves in the future. 🏄♀️🌊 Warm regards, Paul & the Pro Surfing Gran Canaria Team

Premium Surf Course in Gran Canaria: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Gran Canaria.
How much does Premium Surf Course in Gran Canaria cost?
+
Prices start at $73 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Gran Canaria usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Premium Surf Course in Gran Canaria take?
+
Plan for about 3.8 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 Gran Canaria is not rushed.
Is Premium Surf Course in Gran Canaria worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 84 out of 100, which we label "Exceptional". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 96 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Gran Canaria, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Premium Surf Course in Gran Canaria?
+
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 Premium Surf Course in Gran Canaria suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 3.8-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Premium Surf Course in Gran Canaria?
+
Around 34 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 Gran Canaria 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 Gran Canaria and add a light layer if any part of the 3.8-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Premium Surf Course in Gran Canaria 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 Gran Canaria 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 Gran Canaria?
+
On Outty we rank every Gran Canaria experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Puerto de Mogán: Coastal Cruise with Optional Snorkeling & Lunch, Guided tour of the Banana World, Gran Canaria Red Canyon: Small Group Tour & Local Food ツ. 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 Gran Canaria?
+
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 Gran Canaria?
+
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 Premium Surf Course in Gran Canaria?
+
Included: Tutorial and Safety on the beach; Full Insurance; The assistance of qualified instructors; Innovative teaching method; and Energy bar & Mineral water. Not included: Souvenir photos (available to purchase). Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.
Where is the meeting point for Premium Surf Course in Gran Canaria?
+
We are located at Eurocenter Shopping Center (outside area), right in front of the only Lidl supermarket in Playa del Inglés and next to the National Police station. Hotel pickup is not included, so plan your own transport and arrive 15 minutes early.
What languages is Premium Surf Course in Gran Canaria offered in?
+
It is offered in English, Hungarian and Spanish. 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 Premium Surf Course in Gran Canaria?
+
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 Premium Surf Course in Gran Canaria 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 Premium Surf Course in Gran Canaria if the weather is bad?
+
