A CORUÑA the closest terminal to Playa de Razo, 40 minutes away and the best option for everyone. Transfers from and to A Coruña are included in our total  price, (as long as they are during agreed times).

If you decide to travel in your own vehicle, your destination will be CARBALLO and once you get there, another 9 kms to Playa de Razo, where you will pass in front of the Camp at the end of the entrance straight to the beach. There’s no way to get lost.

Our instructors will pick you up at the airport and take you to the surf camp, making your trip very easy.

Pick-ups  are made on camp start dates, which is the first day that we indicate in the duration of each camp (eg: Camp 1: from July 4th to 11th) and the departures on the final day of each camp (eg: Camp 1: from July 4th to 11th).

We are a large group, how can we book?

Large groups may need to make more than one booking. You can be a maximum of 6 people in 1 room (subject to availability). If you want, you can make a joint booking for the whole group. And, if you have the same level of surfing, you can even go to class together if you want!

Are there group discounts?

If you are booking for a group of 3 or more people, you may be entitled to a special discount. The discount is 3% per person. Check the corresponding box on the form.

Can I cancel or change my booking?

In case of cancellation, refunds depend on the time of cancellation. As with any other holiday package, cancellation fees may apply. Make sure you read the terms and conditions and accept it before booking a camp. You can view our terms and conditions at any time here: https://www.razsurfcamp.com/condiciones-de-reserva/

Can you go to two or more camps in a row?

Yes, you can do two or more camps in a row, in fact more and more students are doing it. A week goes by very fast!

Where do people come from?

They come from absolutely everywhere, sometimes we are even surprised! . The vast majority come from Spain both from the coast and from other regions. In certain seasons we have quite a few foreign visitors from northern Europe and also students who have crossed the pond to be with us: the United States, Canada, Mexico…

Can I go to Raz SurfCamp if I have never surfed?

A very high percentage of our students have never had any experience with surfing. You will find that with the exception of veterans and those who come to improve, who work differently, the vast majority are in the same boat and it’s their first experience with surfing. Our beginners’ method starts from scratch and the goal  is to enjoy the waves and lay the foundations of everything you need to know to be able to enjoy surfing on other beaches. You just have to know how to swim and be willing to make the effort involved in learning, always in a safe and fun way.

Is there a lifeguard? I am concerned about safety at a Surf Camp.

On Playa de Razo, the swimming areas are cordoned off and there are local authority lifeguards throughout the summer controlling the areas where we catch waves.

At the same time,  our ratio of one instructor for every six students gives us an easy view of the group at all times. Outside of class time, a supervised surf zone is designated in which there will be an instructor ensuring the safety of the students.

All of our monitors are certified and have first aid knowledge. Students are insured from day one.

What age is the ideal to go to your camp?

To spend the night in the camp the minimum age is 12 years. Last year, the median age was 15 in July. We can’t predict the future , but the average age is likely to remain the same for next season.

For classes the only essential requirement is to know how to swim.

The maximum age? You set the limits.  You are as old as you feel.

How much time will I spend in the water?

Classes are two hours a day with an instructor for every 6 beginner level students. After classes you can stay in the water in the areas supervised by lifeguards and / or instructors. In the afternoons, free swimming sessions are controlled , we will designate an area that will be supervised by instructors.

You will have the material at your disposal throughout the day so it only depends on what you want to do and the stamina of your muscles, some people like to surf for 8 hours a day.

What kind of supervision is there?

There is 24-hour adult supervision. At night there are caretakers in charge of the making sure the camp is safe and peaceful. We put some simple rules of coexistence and safety, if they are broken the student will return home at the expense of their guardians if they are minor, without the right to any refund. We do not make exceptions here.

If I already know how to surf, should I go to class?

If you already have a certain level, you enter the improvement group. Here the student-instructor ratio changes as well as the style of the classes.

Daily video analysis and specific personalised technique.

Can I bring my equipment?

Sure! Changing equipment when you are already used to it is often not a good idea.

Sometimes, when  you start surfing without going to a surfing school you try to use boards that are too advanced for your level, boards that are too small, thin or narrow that just hold back our improvement.

At Raz SurfCamp we have many boards from round nose 5’6 to 9 ‘longboards. Your monitor will guide you on the material so that you always have the board that best suits your level, weight and height.

Should I be accompanied?

If you find an adventure partner, you will share the excitement of the journey, although many students come alone the first time. The following year they usually return with people they have met at the Camp and with whom they have become friends. Friendships that in many cases last a lifetime.

What do I have to bring?
  • DNI
  • Social Security Card (original or copy)
  • Private medical insurance card, if you have one (original or copy)

If you are a minor, do not forget to bring the authorisation that we send you by e-mail, duly signed by parents / guardians. It is essential to be able to start the activity.

What do you need to pack in your SMALL SUITCASE?

  • Protective cream, flip flops, beach towel, swimsuit or bikini
  • The basics for body hygiene (shampoo, toothbrush and toothpaste, gel …)
  • If you follow any medical treatment, do not forget the medication.
  • Sweatshirt, t-shirts, long trousers (tracksuit) and sports shoes. At Razo it is normal to enjoy warm weather with beach temperatures during the day, but at night it cools and summer storms can arise at any time, so it is not a bad idea to also pack a light raincoat.
  • A bottle or thermo flask to keep the water cool.
  • We also recommend that campers bring the pain reliever that they usually take at home for menstruation discomfort or any other minor ailment in their toiletry bag, since we cannot administer any type of medication without first going through the emergency service of the nearby outpatient clinic.

Ear plugs, in order to avoid otitis when surfing, especially for students prone to this ailment.

What kind of food is there?

We only use local products from the area and the weekly menu is made up of a balanced diet designed to give you energy every day while surfing. Two dishes and dessert at noon and at night and a full breakfast in the morning, you will also have fresh fruit at your disposal throughout the day. The food is prepared by the La Quinta catering, who make homestyle cuisine based on fresh local produce as gastronomically rich as Galicia.

What happens if I leave the Surf Camp?

You will not have the right to any refund once the surf camp has started, if you abandon it of your own accord, or due to the wishes of your parents or your guardians. The concept “start of the surfcamp” is understood as the first day of the camp. The expenses generated for the return trip, if any, will be borne by the parents or legal guardians. The participant will return home without the right to a subsequent claim or any economic compensation for the days and services not taken advantage of.
