A Splash of Adventure at Playa de las Américas

As a travel writer and a mother of three, I am always on the lookout for activities that promise both fun and learning for my children. When I heard about the Summer Kids Club at Playa de las Américas, I knew it was something we had to try. The idea of my kids learning to surf, skateboard, and engage in beach games sounded like the perfect blend of excitement and education.

Our adventure began on a sunny morning at Playas de Troya, a beautiful sandy beach that seemed to stretch endlessly. The kids were buzzing with excitement, their eyes wide with anticipation as they met their instructors. The staff was incredibly welcoming, instantly putting my children at ease. They explained the day’s activities, starting with beginner surf lessons. Watching my kids don their wetsuits and grab their surfboards was a proud moment for me. The instructors were patient and encouraging, making sure each child felt comfortable and confident before hitting the waves.

Riding the Waves and Beyond

The surf lessons were a hit! My youngest, who is usually a bit hesitant with new experiences, was soon laughing and splashing in the water. The instructors had a knack for making learning fun, turning each wipeout into a lesson and every small success into a celebration. It was heartwarming to see my children not only learning a new skill but also making friends with other kids in the camp.

After surfing, the kids moved on to balance training and skateboarding. The transition from water to land was seamless, and the children were eager to try their hand at skateboarding. The instructors introduced them to balance training using slacklines, which was a new experience for my kids. It was fascinating to watch them focus and improve their balance, a skill that would undoubtedly help them in surfing as well.

Fun, Games, and Environmental Awareness

The day was rounded off with beach games and a session on environmental care. The games were a great way for the kids to unwind and have fun, while the environmental session was both informative and engaging. The instructors taught the children about the importance of taking care of our beaches and oceans, instilling a sense of responsibility and respect for nature.

As we wrapped up our day at the Summer Kids Club, I couldn’t help but feel grateful for such a wonderful experience. My children not only learned new skills but also gained a deeper appreciation for the environment. The combination of fun, learning, and friendship made this an unforgettable adventure for our family. If you’re looking for a family-friendly activity that offers both excitement and education, I highly recommend the Summer Kids Club at Playa de las Américas. It’s a day filled with laughter, learning, and memories that will last a lifetime.
