HOW YOUR SURF LESSON WORKS

Every Magikvanilla surf lesson starts the same way: we assess your level and pair you with up to four surf buddies at a similar stage. You'll get a quick theory briefing, a proper warm-up, and a safety brief before heading into the water.

From there, our instructors guide you through pop-ups, paddling, turns and wave timing — always in the water with you, cheering you on. Book a surf week course, and you'll also get video analysis to track your progress.

94% OF SURFERS RATED THEIR MAGIKVANILLA EXPERIENCE 'EXCELLENT' ON TRIPADVISOR.

"We had so much fun with Magikvanilla that we binned Lisbon and stayed for more surfing. Lisbon can wait!" 

Alex & Gang

"This was my sixth time at MagikVanilla, and quite possibly the best. It's difficult to say because every visit has been superb. I really cannot find fault with the owners, Steve & Susie, the staff or the location." 

Andre LaBouchardiére

"From the minute we were picked up to our final sunset surf, everything was super slick and professional. The team were welcoming and friendly, and Steve went out of his way to give us surf tips and ensure we were having the best possible time."

Em & Nay

"It was better than any of us could have imagined. The whole week was geared towards helping us become better surfers, and we felt like we were being taught to surf by instructors who actually want us to learn!! This is something we have not had in the past with previous surf camps."

Kerensa Lewis

"The best surf instructor I've ever had! He's very encouraging, brings lots of energy to the sessions, and has tons of experience behind him. It was the best surf week I could ask for, and the passion shown by the team was inspiring and very special." 

David Maxen

"We loved the surf lessons, which allowed us to catch our first waves as complete beginners. The atmosphere was very friendly and relaxed, with a great mix of travellers from all over the world. Many thanks to the whole team for this amazing experience!"
