More than a surf school – a family riding the waves
At Wellenkind Surf School, we don't just teach surfing – we live the ocean.
Here, surfing isn’t just a sport – it’s a way of life. Whether it’s your first wave or you’ve been in the water for years, at Wellenkind you’ll feel part of something greater. We’re passionate about the ocean, about learning, and about sharing this energy with everyone who walks through our doors.
If you’ve ever dreamed of surfing in an authentic setting, this is your place.
Rolf and Steffi, the heart and soul of Wellenkind Surf School
Our Story
It all began over 10 years ago, when David founded Wellenkind with a clear goal: to share the essence of surfing in its purest form. What started as a small project in Fuerteventura grew into a surf school with soul, where technique, fun, and a deep connection to the ocean go hand in hand.
Today, Rolf and Steffi continue his legacy, staying true to the values that made Wellenkind a special place: high-quality instruction, professionalism, and an atmosphere where every student feels at home. Here, you don’t just learn to surf – you live the ocean.
📍 Prime Location: We’re the only surf school in the south of Fuerteventura with direct access to the beach and Surf Camp.
Our Team
What makes Wellenkind truly special isn’t just its location or teaching approach – it’s the people behind every wave. Get to know us:
We speak your language: Spanish 🇪🇸, English 🇬🇧, and German 🇩🇪 – so you can enjoy surfing without barriers.
What Makes Us Different?
The Wellenkind Signature
What the waves say... and those who’ve already surfed them with us
Because the best stories aren’t told by us – they’re told by those who’ve lived the Wellenkind experience.

Top-level surf school. I’ve had a total of 8 surf lessons there and each one was truly enjoyable. The surf spot is a fantastic sandy beach, you can rent wetsuits in all sizes, the surf instructors teach really well – especially Rolf – and transport to the surf school is included in the price.

It was an amazing and super fun experience! A great place and a fantastic coach. In a small group, we received very personalised attention. The coach adapted to each of us and gave excellent advice. Thank you to Rolf and Wellenkind! 😊🏄♂️

A charming and welcoming hostel with a family atmosphere and a wonderful vibe. As a solo traveller, you feel truly welcomed and well looked after. Plus, it’s located right on the most beautiful beach on the entire island! 🌊🏝️✨
