About Africa & Canary Islands

Africa offers some of the least crowded and most rewarding surf in the world. Morocco's Taghazout and Anchor Point are the continent's most accessible and well-established surf camp destinations, with consistent point break surf from September through April. The Canary Islands, particularly Fuerteventura and Lanzarote, deliver swell year-round in warm water and are among Europe's most popular surf school destinations by volume. South Africa's Jeffrey's Bay is one of the greatest right-hand point breaks on Earth, a WSL Championship stop that rivals anything in the world for speed and length. Senegal, Mozambique, and Réunion round out a continent with more undiscovered surf than any other.
