Arrival at Playa De Somo

The moment I set foot on Playa De Somo, I knew I was in for a treat. The sun was shining, the waves were calling, and the vibe was just right. This wasn’t my first rodeo, but the anticipation of a new surf spot always gets my heart racing. The Cantabrian Surf School, with its rich history and reputation, was the perfect place to hone my skills and soak in the Spanish surf culture.

The beach itself was a sight to behold. Stretching for miles, it offered a variety of breaks suitable for all levels. As I walked along the shore, I couldn’t help but notice the camaraderie among the surfers. It reminded me of the tight-knit communities I’ve encountered in Central America. The school was bustling with energy, and I was eager to dive in.

The Surfing Experience

The instructors at the Cantabrian Surf School were top-notch. Their passion for surfing was infectious, and their expertise was evident from the get-go. Each day, we spent two hours in the water, refining our techniques and pushing our limits. The waves were consistent, offering the perfect playground for both beginners and seasoned surfers like myself.

What stood out to me was the personalized attention each student received. The instructors took the time to understand our individual goals and tailored their guidance accordingly. It was a refreshing change from the more commercialized surf schools I’ve encountered in the past. By the end of the week, I felt a renewed sense of confidence in my abilities and a deeper connection to the ocean.
