Benefits of Surfing for Children

Surfing is a physical and recreational activity that offers numerous benefits to children, combining exercise, fun, and learning in a natural environment. At the Oceanside Gran Canaria Summer Surf Camp, we provide a unique experience for children aged 5 to 15, with programs specifically designed for their physical and mental development.

Benefits of Surfing for Children

• Physical Development: Surfing is a comprehensive exercise that enhances strength, coordination, balance, and endurance. Children learn to manage their bodies in the water, contributing to their muscular and cardiovascular development.

• Mental Well-being: Surfing in a natural environment like Las Canteras Beach reduces stress and anxiety, promoting relaxation and emotional well-being. Being in contact with the sea has therapeutic effects and improves mood.

• Discipline and Concentration: Learning to surf requires patience, practice, and focus. Children develop concentration and discipline skills, essential for their success in this activity and other areas of their lives.

• Socialization and Teamwork: At our camp, children interact and collaborate with their peers, fostering teamwork, communication, and the creation of new friendships.

• Respect for the Environment: Through surfing, children develop a deep respect for nature and the marine environment. They learn the importance of caring for and preserving our beaches and oceans.
