Der Surfkurs an sich war super und hat alle wichtigen Grundlagen abgedeckt. Unser Guide, Beau, war mega nett. Wenn er gemerkt hat, das wir zu erschöpft zum Rauspaddeln wurden hat er uns freundlicher Weise mit raus aufs Meer gezogen und uns immer einen Schub gegeben, um die Wellen zu bekommen. 4h für einen Anfängerkurs sind aber definitiv zu lang. Wenn man die Bewegung nicht gewohnt ist, ist man relativ schnell zu erschöpft, um tatsächlich Surfen zu können und viel besser als nach 2h Kurs wird man trotzdem nicht.
