WHY JOIN THIS COACHING WEEK?
A full week of surfing, skating and more surfing? YES GIRL. Surf is incredibly addictive, but the learning curve is steep and comes with a lot of frustrations. We know first-hand how much practice, technique, physical and mental strength it demands to FEEL the improvement! This camp is your opportunity to get direct coaching and insights from other girls who have been through the same process, and that are equally passionate (read: obsessed) about surfing! This Experience is specifically designed to equip you with the tools you need to maximize your progress, style and fun in the water. There’s nothing more powerful than a full week spent training and surfing with a hungry girl-gang! 🙂

About Playa El Zonte
Playa El Zonte is located on the pacific coast, 1 hour away from the International Airport. It is a laidback costal village, where you will mostly be surrounded by friendly locals, fellow surfers and sun seekers. It is a safe and pleasant area, where the invitation is to live simply, following the rhythm of the tides. The beach is divided by a river mouth and there are two main surf spots: A right point break and a beach break. One of the most unique things about playa El Zonte is the beauty of its black sand beach.
