University Surf School

La Cícer is the stretch of Las Canteras where the city sets aside space for surfing and bodyboarding. University Surf School is a few streets from the beach and teaches in stages, from a first introduction to the board to sessions for surfers looking to refine their technique. Its website lists classes for adults, children and university students, as well as private lessons.

The location makes it easy to reach on foot from the seafront and continue exploring Guanarteme without turning the day into a logistical trip. The school recommends booking online and provides arrival guidance, including time to get there and bringing water, a towel and sun protection. Check availability and the precise meeting point when choosing a session.

Recent Google Maps reviews describe patient instructors, a welcoming manner and teaching that helps students feel more confident in the water. Some comments value the encouragement beginners receive from the group; others mention the ability to adapt schedules. It is a sound option for first-timers and visitors who want lessons in the city’s surf neighbourhood, rather than an unsupervised dip in the sea.

La Cícer brings together schools and services connected with the waves, but surfing always depends on the day’s conditions and each person’s level. A booked lesson turns that uncertainty into part of the experience: listen to the instructor, enter the water when conditions allow and understand why this coastline belongs to everyday life in Las Palmas.
