VIEW DATES SURF WEEKSAbout the surfing
At Brunotti international surfcamp in Vieux Boucau there’s nothing more important than surfing! We therefore put a lot of focus on (quality of) our surflessons. You’ll experience the magic feeling that surfing is when you paddle and surf your first wave towards the beach. You’ll experience for yourself how addicting and fun surfing really is.
Our surf instructors are all certified and extremely experienced in teaching surflessons in France. Contrary to other surfcamps Brunotti only teaches in groups of max. 8 students. The surflessons consist of some preparing exercises on the beach and lots of time catching waves in the water!
- Free surfing
Free surfing
In case you got stoked after your first surfclasses, your time in the water doesn’t have to end after the surfclasses. Feel free to take one of our ‘free surf’ boards and practice in the water. If you want to surf in addition to your lessons, book the fun package as well.
At Brunotti surfcamp we do have the rule that for safety purposes you must have followed at least one surftheory- and surflesson. Surftheory takes place on the first day of your holiday on Brunotti surfcamp. During the theory the surfcoaches will teach you everyting you’ll need to know in order to go into the water safely. Topics like e.g. currents, tides, equipment and areas on the beach where you’re allowed to go free surfing will be discussed. In case of extreme conditions it may not be possible to go free surfing, this however is very rare.
- Theory preparation
Surf theory

Surfboards
Our choice for equipment during the surflessons is the ‘soft top’ boards. We have several sizes ‘soft tops’ that you can choose from.
