Will be staying near Estepona over christmas period.... Is there a good place to surf (where we can hire boards and suits) in the area?

l can say without a doubt that the best place to surf is in the ocean.

Thank you.

The Mediteranian has little tidal rise and fall. l know the area quite well and as far as l am aware, there is no-where on the Med that is 'good' for surfing!

To tell the truth, the waves r very small & it seriously is not a good place to surf. To my knowledge there r very few surf shops at Costa del Sol & when l went there for vacation l did not see many shops to do with surfing. There were a couple for Kite Surfing & boat sailing & stuff. Sorry l can not help much but Costa del Sol just is not a very good spot to surf.

Wrong ocean. No fetch for swells to develop. However they do get a little surf on the west coast of Italy. Try Morocco, Very cheap. Very good surf. Agadir area.
