Hosted by Bjorn & Emil

This isn’t a camp you show up to for a lesson and leave. Bjorn and Emil are with you the whole week — teaching, surfing alongside you, running the socials, and deciding where you go each day based on the swell.

Bjorn keeps the week simple and surf-focused — more sessions, less programme, real free time to actually enjoy Lagos in November.

Emil’s running the surf skate sessions and making sure the group actually surfs together, not just alongside each other.

Before you book

What level is this for?

Early intermediate and up. We’re not chasing massive waves — we split into two or three groups by level and choose the beach based on conditions, so everyone’s surfing something that suits them. The point isn’t handling huge swell, it’s making progress.

Is food included?

No. Your bungalow has its own kitchenette and there’s a supermarket close by. The welcome and closing barbecues are on us.

Where do we surf?

Since it’s November, we’re hoping to spend time on the south coast, but really we go wherever the conditions are best that day. On south coast days, Bjorn and Emil still choose the beach based on the level of the group.

What if the group is mixed levels?

Bjorn and Emil split into smaller groups by level so everyone’s surfing waves that make sense for them, while still travelling and hanging out as one crew.

How do I book?

Send us an email and we’ll get you booked onto the week.
