Surfing Paradise: Riding the Waves in Lanzarote

Experience the thrill of surfing in Lanzarote, the European Hawaii. Learn about the best surf spots, the ideal conditions, and the vibrant surf culture on the island.

It really doesn't matter if you've never ridden a surfboard or if you're a pro: from the six kilometers of pure fun at surfing capital Famara, to the hellish slab at pro-only El Quemao and the freight trains of La Santa; from perfect breaks like Jameos del Agua to secret spots along the north coast and and beginner-friendly spots like Arrieta Beach, Lanzarote has the right wave for everyone, incredible consistency -- and locals are cool!

We have fallen in love with surfing after trying it in Gran Canaria in 2022. And that was one of the main reasons we decided to move to Lanzarote, as the island is known for its world-class waves -- arguably the best in the Atlantic.

In this page, you will find links to the articles we are going to write about the incredible surfing experience in Lanzarote. There are many websites and guides about surfing in Lanzarote, after all, so why another one? Well, because there are many indeed, but we may offer the unique outlook of someone who's still a novice surfer, and getting better every day out there. So if you're a pro, maybe you'll find our surfing articles a bit naive. If you're an intermediate surfer looking to have a good time, perhaps you have just found the right place.
