What should a good surf school offer a person who wants to learn to surf?<\/p>\n

First and foremost, good instructors, the beating heart of every surf school.<\/strong> A good instructor, with his experience and professionalism, not only teaches how to ride the waves, but also guides the student in physical preparation and understanding of the waves and the \u201cbehavior\u201d of the sea: surfing safely is essential.
\nLook for instructors with solid qualifications<\/strong>: a trained teacher will teach you proper technique and get you hooked on the art of surfing.<\/p>\n

For surfing, you’ll need a surfboard, wetsuit, board wax and a leash: wetsuits are essential in the cold waters of the Atlantic Ocean, especially during the winter and spring months, while boards need to be of the \u201csoft\u201d type to ensure safety, buoyancy and stability.
