WHY WE CHOSE LAJARES ON FUERTEVENTURA

AS THE LOCATION FOR OUR SURF CAMP

The idyllic town of Lajares is also known as "Surfcity", as the infrastructure is adapted to the needs of surfers. In addition, most of the beaches and coasts are equally close so that you can reach the best surf spots at short notice depending on the wave conditions. This of course saves an enormous amount of time when checking spots.

Every surfer or surf school has to drive through the town of Lajares at least once a day to be able to take advantage of the variability of the coasts. Depending on the wind and waves, this is necessary in order to reach the coastal regions in the north, east or west - this is the only way to cater for the individual ability levels of the surf students. The choice of our surf camp base is therefore systematic and we were able to establish one of the few surf camps here in Lajares in the north of Fuerteventura.
