Seignosse le Penon Surf School

Seignosse, the wild setting of the Landes, where every wave on the Penon becomes an invitation to reveal the surfer in you. Here, we offer much more than just surf lessons: we pass on to you the soul of the surfing culture, taught by local instructors who are passionate about teaching and deeply attached to their region.

"Learning to surf in Seignosse is like taking a deep breath of fresh air in a postcard setting: invigorating, powerful, and terribly addictive!"

At Ocean Adventure, we're convinced that the ideal learning experience rests on three essential pillars: appropriate teaching methods, fun first and foremost, 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 personalised support in a friendly, motivating and caring atmosphere.

Safety is at the heart of our commitment: Penon beach, with its vast stretches of sand, well-defined zones and unspoilt natural environment, is an ideal spot to learn or improve in complete peace of mind. You'll be in ideal conditions, supervised by experienced professionals who know the beach like the back of their hand.

Our advice for real progress?

Opt for a full-week course. A series of sessions will help you consolidate what you've learnt, improve your ocean reading, boost your confidence and quickly become self-sufficient.

The more time you spend in the water, the more you experience that unique feeling of freedom and connection to the ocean that only gliding can offer.

Seignosse Surf School, le Penon

Our surf school is located on the central Penon beach in Seignosse. No equipment to carry... you're right on the beach!

Penon beach in Seignosse, a surf spot for beginners and intermediates!

Since 2000, our surf school in Seignosse Océan has been located on the Penon spot, an ideal place to learn and practice surfing. Our young, dynamic team welcomes you to its premises, ideally situated behind the dune, 2 minutes from the sea.

Our lessons take place on a large sandbank to the left of the wooden dune. This peak opens out to the right and left, allowing us to teach you how to surf from both sides of the wave. For beginners, we'll teach you to get up on the foam of the waves, in places where you'll have your feet.

The optimum conditions for surfing these waves are when a north-westerly swell is supported by an offshore wind.

Our main assets: seriousness and good humour!
