Host Introduction
Mediterranean Surf School was born in 2011 by the hands of surfers with the main purpose of making you breathe surfing in Valencia throughout the year. With the clear objective of equating surfing and other sliding sports with the rest of sports disciplines, our team is mainly formed by Graduates in Physical Education and Sports. Its facilities located near the beach, have large changing rooms and showers, board storage, mini ramp, shop, bar, yoga room... A luxury! The magic side of them is Kind Surf. This project was born from the interest of bringing surfing closer to all people who wish to enjoy the sea and sliding, regardless of their social status or diversities. KIND SURF and MEDITERRANEAN SURF join forces to create a collaborative program around therapeutic surfing.
