CrossFit Holiday in Gran Canaria: 5 Days of Training, Beach WODs and Surfing

The trip starts at Las Palmas airport, where a WOD Holidays rep meets you and drives you to the Sercotel Cristina Las Palmas Hotel, right on Las Canteras Beach. You get a welcome pack with the full itinerary, local restaurant recommendations and a WOD Holidays t-shirt. That evening there is a welcome meeting and an optional team dinner at a local restaurant.

From Wednesday, your rep collects you from reception after breakfast and drives you to CrossFit Sebadal. Sessions follow the box's programmed WODs, so you are training alongside local members and can compare scores. Coaches are English-speaking and CrossFit-certified. The gym is described as spacious, and access is included in the price.

Afternoons are deliberately loose. You can stay by the pool, walk to the beach, or join the beach WOD led by your rep — bodyweight movements, kettlebells and team races. Thursday afternoon is kept free for recovery, with massages available at the hotel or at a parlour across the street. Friday afternoon is the activity block: a three-hour surf or stand-up paddleboard lesson, weather permitting, with board and wetsuit rental, insurance and one instructor per six people. Saturday morning closes with a team WOD before the transfer back to the airport.

The hotel is a five-star property a few metres from the city's commercial area and harbour. Rooms are executive twin or double, and breakfast is a buffet. The hotel has an outdoor pool, gym, restaurant, massages and free WiFi.

What separates this from a generic fitness holiday is the structure: fixed Tuesday-to-Saturday dates built around flights from the UK and Ireland, a rep with you for the week, and training at a partner box rather than a hotel gym. Packages run in June, August and September, and the operator also takes group bookings of eight or more and private packages for groups of 8–16.
