SURF TRIP BY THE CANTÁBRICO

Have you dreamed of a surf trip in which everything is rolled? We propose you an impressive surf trip on board one of our vans.

FORGET ABOUT USUAL SURF TRIPS …

Nothing to look for accommodation, if the forecasts will not fit you in such or such a place, if your reduced quiver will not be appropriate, etc …
From Atlanticsurfroute we propose to make the best surf trip possible. Obviously not all the spots have facilities to make life on a van, so we advise the most appropriate for this type of surf trip where you can be on the best beach and with the best conditions every day. Be the first on the water, sleep in amazing places, meet different people every day and ultimately live an experience you will not forget easily.

This time we propose some of the most spectacular coasts of Spain. The Cantabrian.

The northern peninsular coast has some of the most spectacular beaches of our country, and on board our van we will travel along the Cantabrian motorway always with the sea on one side, stopping at every beach we want and enjoying not only the great Waves that we will catch but of each beach, forest and cliff.

On these beaches we have been some of us and many of our friends van and we have never had a serious problem. But that yes, always respecting both inside and outside the water. Being aware of the level of each and where to place. Our advice and request is to be discreet, clean, speak to the locals and respect the rules ALWAYS.

If you are learning, you want to perfect the technique or you are simply new to surfing, you have a multitude of schools for all levels along the course where you will also rent the necessary equipment (suit, table, etc.) For 2 people of 2 hours, from about 59 euros).

We recommend some of them: Cántabra Surf School (Somo), Pukas Surf Eskola (Zarautz), Mundaka Surf School (Mundaka), Oyambre Surf (Oyambre), Rodiles Surf School (Rodiles) and Surf School Las Dunas (Salinas).

If you have a certain level or you have already caught the basics of the technique, you can also rent the material on the same beach. Rental prices may vary, but approximately:
1 day: table (30 euros),
1 day: neoprene suit (10 euros),
1 day: bodyboard and fins (20 euros).
