Teen Surf Camp for 14 Year Olds in Moliets & San Vicente – 7-Day All-Inclusive Surf Holiday

The week runs on roughly the same rhythm at both camps. You're up, fed breakfast, and in the water for the first surf session of the day. Lessons are split by ability — beginner, intermediate and advanced — so nobody's stuck in a group that's too fast or too slow. Each instructor takes a maximum of eight people, which means you get real feedback on your pop-up, your positioning and your wave choice rather than just being pointed at the sea. Over the course of the week that adds up to around 24 hours of instruction and free surfing.

After lunch there's a second session in the water, often a sunset surf, or one of the other activities: bodyboarding, skating, beach volleyball, ping-pong, yoga. Evenings are camp evenings — an organised party, a trip into town, or just hanging out on the campsite. In Moliets, the beach is about 100 metres away, so you can be on the sand within a couple of minutes of leaving your tent.

Accommodation is in four-person tents on a large, well-maintained campsite, but you only ever share with one other person — so it's two to a tent, not four. That's a small detail that makes a big difference to a teenager's first trip away. Showers, toilets and camp facilities are on site, and the whole setup is designed for groups of young people rather than families.

What separates this from a generic summer surf course is the level of supervision and the range of stuff to do when you're not surfing. Staff are passionate surfers who are around all day for help and advice, the food is cooked on site, and the activities programme means there's no dead time. It's also one of the few European camps that runs a dedicated programme for 14-year-olds rather than lumping young teens in with either children or adults.

Groups are small by design. The 8:1 instructor ratio applies in the water, and the camps keep numbers manageable so that the social side actually works — everyone knows each other by day two. If you're choosing between the two locations: Moliets is the classic south-west France surf town with a famous beach break; San Vicente de la Barquera is on the green north Spanish coast and includes a trip to San Sebastian.
