Indo board
Also known as balance board is a device used for recreation, balance training, athletic training, brain development, therapy, musical training and other kinds of personal development. It is a lever similar to a see-saw that the user usually stands on with the left and right foot at opposite ends of the board. The rider’s body must stay balanced enough to keep the board’s edges from touching the ground and to keep from falling off the board.
Balance is one of the key skills for surfing, you may use the surf camp balance boards to improve your balance skills.
Flying discs
The flying disc, also known as “Frisbee”, is one of the most enjoyable sports you can play on the beach, just make some free throws with the lads, or let´s organize an ultimate match.

Yoga lessons
Relax and replenish your mind and body through yoga. Yoga is a commonly known generic term for its physical, mental, and spiritual discipline which origins lie in ancient India. One of the really good things about yoga, when applied to surf, is that yoga is a perfect complement for such an all-round athletic sport. You will stretch and try positions that will help your body compensate for the exertion from surfing.
Add three yoga lessons to your activity packet for just 30€ per week.
