Anglet Surf School Les Cavaliers

Passing on surfing and its values from generation to generation has been our passion for many years! Mathieu Gallico

Anglet, the pearl of the Basque coast, where every wave at Les Cavaliers becomes an opportunity to reveal the surfer in you.
Here, we don't just teach you how to surf: we pass on the very essence of surfing culture, taught by local instructors who are passionate, educational and deeply rooted in their region.

"Learning to surf at Les Cavaliers is like taming the ocean on a green slope: more accessible than you might think, and terribly exhilarating from the first sensations!"

At Ocean Adventure, we believe that the key to successful learning rests on three pillars: appropriate teaching methods, fun as the driving force, and visible progress at every session.
That's why our state-qualified instructors take the time to understand your level, your objectives and your pace, to offer you tailor-made support in an atmosphere that's friendly, reassuring and motivating.

Safety is our priority:
The Cavaliers spot, which has a good reputation but is also very well supervised, offers an accessible area where you can start out in good conditions, especially during the right tides and periods. Thanks to their perfect knowledge of the area, our instructors adapt the lessons to the conditions of the day, for a calm, effective and safe learning experience.

Our advice for confident progress?

Choose a full-week course.
A succession of sessions is the best way to consolidate your basics, build your confidence and make rapid progress towards independence.

The more time you spend in the water, the more you'll connect with the unique feeling of freedom that only gliding can offer.

Les Cavaliers Surf School, Anglet

Our surf school is located on Les Cavaliers beach in Anglet.

Les Cavaliers is the perfect place to start surfing!

The Cavaliers surf spot is one of the best surf spots for learning to ride the waves from Anglet to Biarritz. In front of our structure, there are 2 sandy beaches separated by the famous Cavaliers breakwater.

- Beginner surfers will enjoy the small sandy waves that open up over a good distance, sheltered by the Cavaliers breakwater. The La barre spot, meanwhile, offers a "safe" spot at high tide, thanks in part to the sand accumulated between two breakwaters. The Cavaliers and Petite Barre breakwaters.

- Intermediate surfers will be well catered for on the right of Les Cavaliers or the left of La Barre. Long waves that open up with hollow sections for speed lovers and easy passes to get back up to the peak.

- Expert surfers will not be outdone, as these two spots are best known for the quality of their waves, their international competitions in the 80s and the off-centre nature of the coast north of Anglet, which means that the waves here are still relatively uncrowded. Tom Curren, Garry Elkerton and many others made no mistake. Waves from the outside with long, hollow sections to the powerful shorebreak on the left of the spot will delight bodyboarders and tube riders of all kinds... In rough weather and when the sea is impassable, the surf school will take you to more suitable spots free of charge.
