The Zarautz surf camp combines all the comforts of home, a few special extras, and that fun surf camp atmosphere that’s synonymous with Puresurfcamps.

• Only 500 meters to the beach, and the closest surf spot
• Perfect Basque country landscapes, surf & food
• Surf courses that are perfect for beginners to intermediates
• The campground has its own bar, restaurant & shop
• WiFi available
• Beach games as well as Skate & Longboards to rent for free

Surfing Basque Country is something you’ll hear flying around the campground on an hourly basis, it doesn’t just relate to the epic waves, but also the culture that surrounds you. This includes the Tapas, the Fiestas, the Siestas, the culture, and of course the Sangria.

Zarautz is slowly but surely becoming one of the most popular surf destinations in Europe for all age brackets, and all levels of surfer. The bays layout means you don’t have to worry about currents and rips and provides amazing peaks for beginners in front of the camp, and more advanced surfers towards town. If you’re feeling confident you can also check out the next beach over, Playa Gris, which is a local favourite and world class big wave spot when the swell gets big. The green rolling hills that surround the camp and happy locals in town really add to the experience and make it a memory you won’t forget.

The camp also has plenty of spaces to unwind in the evenings, including an onsite bar where the team throw quiz nights, themed parties and karaoke evenings. There is also a large central dining area and plenty of hammocks.

The team also make use of their surroundings by sourcing fresh local produce to prepare the daily breakfast buffet, and daily dinner which you can add to your booking, meaning you don’t have to worry about meals for the duration of your stay.

Zarautz evening views from the nearby hill

Zarautz
Zarautz is in the middle of Basque Country, just west of the famous town of San Sebastián. Bilbao is also nearby which means you have plenty of options if you want to check out a town after your morning surf session. Zarautz offers plenty, one thing you have to try is the amazing Tapas Bars along the beachfront promenade and fun nightclubs. The beach is also immaculate and stretches from the camp to the other side of town.

Surf Camp Deluxe Zarautz sits 500 meters away from the water’s edge at the Talai Mendi Campground, and has WiFi, a private bar, Miniramp and a small supermarket for all the guests to make use of. The centre of town is also easy to access. All you have to do is take a short stroll, or borrow a skateboard or longboard and roll along the beachfront promenade. Once you get there you can check out the locally famous Pukas Surf Shop, or try one of Hippie Burgers, or go visit the local skatepark. If you are there in the evening you will also find great bars and nightclubs where you can party with locals and international travellers alike.

Local Tapas with a local wine is a must do

Sunset Hill
The rolling hills that shape the landscape around Zarautz offer anyone interested an amazing view over the bay. Not only do you get an amazing vista of the bay, but also the surrounding landscape. It’s also the perfect spot to watch a memorable sunset.

The Boulevard & Diving Boards
If you walk along the beachfront promenade and spend an afternoon checking out the local lifestyle, you’ll probably be quite warm. The locals thought about this and put up some diving boards at the other side of town where you can dive into the crystal-clear water that laps at the towns edge.

Culinary Highlights
Basque Country cuisine is internationally famous for good reason. While on your surf trip make sure you make it to an authentic Tapas Bar at least once to try the local cuisine, and when paired with a great local wine, you are guaranteed delicious evening.
