Appointments must be made by 8 p.m. the day before.
For groups of more than 8 people must be booked at least one week in advance.
Classes usually start at 8am and go until 6pm, and can vary from day to day due to weather conditions and tides.
It is possible in the summer months, when there are more surfers at sea and schools to teach, to schedule a lesson before 8am, to avoid the crowd (many sea surfers) but this always according to the sea conditions to ensure maximum safety.

Students should bring a bathing suit, towel, sunscreen and water. The necessary material for surfing is included in the lesson and is provided by the school.
Usually, and on average, the basics of surfing are learned between 3 to 5 lessons. This is “catching waves” in the foams autonomously, standing on top of the board and making some turns that demonstrate control. However, this is not an exact science.
