Fuerteventura is one of Europe’s surfing meccas, with paradisiacal beaches, crystal clear waters and waves for all levels. Although winter is the season with the biggest waves, the months of May and June offer ideal conditions for beginners and intermediates, with more manageable waves perfect for progressing in spectacular surroundings.

These months combine ideal wave conditions, warm but not sweltering weather, less crowds and better prices on accommodation and activities. If you’re thinking of learning to surf or improving your technique, May and June are the perfect time to do it at Protest Surfcenter surf school, with its brand new facilities located in the heart of Fuerteventura near Corralejo.

Here’s why spring is ideal for surfing in Fuerteventura and how to make the most of it.

Surfing in Fuerteventura: Perfect Weather to Learn and Enjoy

One of the biggest attractions of Fuerteventura at this time of year is the weather. During May and June, the temperatures are perfect for surfing without the high summer temperatures.

Mild temperatures: During these months, temperatures hover between 22°C and 26°C, allowing you to enjoy long surfing sessions without the extreme heat of summer.

Warm water: The ocean temperature is around 19-21°C, ideal for surfing in a light wetsuit (2/2 mm) or even in a swimming costume on the sunniest days.

Less wind: Although Fuerteventura is known for its trade winds, in spring these are moderate, creating perfect conditions to learn and improve your technique.

Spring Wave Conditions: The Ideal Time for Surfing

During this season, the combination of northeasterly winds and consistent waves makes these months a perfect choice for beginners, intermediate and advanced surfers alike. On windless days the north gets wonderful, and on windy days the spots on the east side of the island start to work.

For beginners: Beaches like El Cotillo and Playa Blanca offer smooth and predictable waves, perfect for learning without risk.

For intermediate and advanced surfers: Spots like Punta Blanca and Lagunitas still offer good sessions, but without the powerful swells of winter.

In addition, the Protest Surfcenter surf school selects the best beaches of the day to guarantee an optimal experience according to the level of the group.

Fewer Crowds, More Waves: The Low Season Advantage

May and June are ideal for those looking for a quiet, uncrowded surfing experience. Being the months before the high season, it is possible to enjoy the best waves with fewer people in the water.

• More space in the water, allowing you to surf without crowds.
• More personalised lessons, as the groups at our surf school tend to be smaller.
• Relaxed atmosphere, both on the beaches and in the tourist areas such as Corralejo and El Cotillo.
