    • Since 1966, the JO MORAIZ surf school has been teaching surfing on the legendary Côte des Basques beach in BIARRITZ, the European Capital of Surfing.

      With over 50 years of experience, its instructors will guide you in the water throughout the course and provide advice and assistance to catch as many waves as possible and save valuable time.
      The school is certified as a French surf school and offers courses, group and private lessons for ages 6 to 77, supervised by instructors holding the State Diploma and BPJEPS.

      The Jo Moraiz Surf School welcomes you from April to November.

      Surf lessons are suitable for beginners as well as experienced surfers, for children as well as adults.
      The surf school has over 100 adapted and progressive boards ranging from 5'10 shortboards to 9'2 longboards to follow you in your progression in complete safety.
      The surf school also has a wide range of wetsuits for all body types and all seasons.

      Jo Moraiz is also a surf lodge offering self-catering apartments for 2 to 4 adults. Located near a lake in a quiet, wooded area, they provide easy access to beaches and the best surf spots.

    An incredible experience during my first surf camp, I highly recommend it! The quality of the instruction is remarkable. Instructors Alex, Tom, and Will are highly professional, patient, and attentive. They truly take the time to adapt to each individual, correct technique (with great patience!), reassure everyone, and share their passion for surfing, all in a relaxed and motivating atmosphere. You progress quickly while having a blast! The welcome also deserves a special mention: warm, friendly, and attentive from day one. You immediately feel at ease, which makes the experience even more enjoyable. A huge plus is the beautiful photos: superb memories! Finally, the surf spot is magnificent: waves suitable for all levels and an atmosphere that instantly makes you want to get in the water. In short, a perfectly organized camp. A week I would do again in a heartbeat, and one I 100% recommend to anyone who wants to start or improve their surfing skills! Thanks everyone! ☺️
