Book a private surf lesson in the centre of Conil de la Frontera with Surf Club El Palmar's Conil school, at Calle Almadraba 7, next to La Chanca and TAKE Hostel Conil. Lessons take place on Playa de los Bateles, right in front of the Rio Salado river mouth – a few minutes' walk from town, no car needed.

Why families and friends choose this lesson:

• Private group of 1 to 8 people: the instructor only looks after you, so you progress much faster.
• Kids are welcome from 5 years: the safest way for young children to learn, with constant supervision in the water.
• Better price for bigger groups: 1 person 60 EUR, 2 people 45 EUR per person, 3 to 8 people 40 EUR per person.
• Class photos included: we shoot your session so you can keep your first stand-up.
• Friendly certified instructors like Gonzalo and Javi, mentioned again and again in our reviews.
• All lessons are taught in English (Spanish also available).

How the lesson works: after a short briefing and warm-up on the sand, beginners learn paddling, popping up, balance, how to read the waves and ocean safety; more experienced surfers work on wave positioning, technique and manoeuvres. Lesson times follow the tides, so you always surf in the best conditions of the day.

Everything is included: wetsuit, surfboard, leash, insurance and a certified instructor. Want to try the famous El Palmar waves too? Ask us about our El Palmar lessons with free pickup from Conil.
