Welcome to the French and Surf Academy. At the Academy we offer expert French tuition geared towards the Irish
Leaving Certificate alongside surf instruction from surf instructors with international experience.
We welcome all surfing standards, from first timers to experienced surfers.
The Academy is based in Hendaye, on the French side of the Franco Spanish border and is just a thirty minute drive
from both Biarritz and San Sebastian, Spain. The Basque coastline offers some of the best beach breaks in the world and
is renowned for its sun, sea, sand and surf.
At the Academy, we believe in the age-old adage of a "sound mind in a sound body". Our aim is for you to enjoy
yourself, make new friends and learn in a safe and beautiful setting, while appreciating a rich, new culture.

"I Had a brilliant time overall. I met loads of new people, my level of spoken french improved immensely and the
surfing was just incredible."

while, wish I could go again!"
