France
The Surf Camp
Turn up solo, and by day two you'll have a crew. Our youth surf camp sits behind the dune at St. Girons Plage, on France's Atlantic coast, just 150 metres from the beach and tucked into a shaded pine forest.
Built for surf-mad teens aged 13 to 17 taking their first holiday without parents, the camp is supervised around the clock by our trained youth trip leaders, so everyone's looked after while making new friends. Surf courses run for every level, from complete beginners standing up for the first time to more experienced surfers refining their turns, taught by ISA-certified instructors who keep every session fun rather than intimidating.

Our St. Girons youth package is built around full board — with a vegan option always available — plus three yoga sessions, free longboard hire for cruising the forest roads, and a brand-new pool with five water slides right on the campsite. The camp itself has its own chill-out area, kitchen, table tennis and slackline, so there’s always something to do between surf sessions. St. Girons Plage’s promenade, with its surf shops, cafés and small supermarket, is a short walk away, and an optional day trip to San Sebastián makes for a great change of scene mid-week.



















Accommodation

Camp Activities
Between surf sessions there's a brand-new pool with five water slides, beach volleyball, table tennis and a slackline right in camp, plus free longboard hire for cruising the flat, paved roads through the surrounding pine forest.
Three yoga sessions a week help work out any post-surf stiffness, held either in camp or down on the beach.
