School is back in session across Europe, the days are getting shorter and there\u2019s a slight chill in the air when you wake up in the morning. That can only mean one thing. The North Atlantic will soon be sending plenty of swell pulsing down into the best spots in Europe. When it does, be ready to enjoy your\u00a0Spain surf holiday<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0with The Perfect Wave:<\/p>\n

\"\"

Get acquainted with the local scene and get into the Spanish-speaking groove by flying into Bilbao. Enjoy a night out on the town in the capital of the Basque Country, then take the half hour drive out to Mundaka for some dredging barrels at Europe\u2019s premier left hand sand bottom point break. Enjoy a few post-session beers and tapas in the one of the classic bars overlooking the harbor just a short stroll from the line-up.<\/p>\n

Craig and the crew at the\u00a0Mundaka Surf Shop and Mundaka Apartments<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0will make sure your every need is taken care of in and out of the water. Once you\u2019ve clocked a sufficient amount of tube time in the Mundaka river mouth, catch a cab back to the airport and chase the swell out to the\u00a0Canary Islands.<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"

Every island in the Canaries has at least one world class wave, and plenty of other spots to surf for all skill levels.<\/p>\n

With waves like Los Lobos on Fuerteventura, El Quemao on Lanzarote or El Confital on Gran Canaria when the surf is pumping, plenty of tube time is guaranteed. The Perfect Wave has a wide variety of accommodation on offer in Fuerteventura, but for a true taste of adventure, why not book a week cruising from spot to spot by sea onboard the\u00a0Marro Surf Charter<\/strong><\/a>?<\/p>\n

On Gran Canaria, the\u00a0Oceanside Surf Camp and Apartments<\/strong><\/a>\u00a0is just steps from the beach and plenty of places to cut loose after the sun goes down! The punchy beach break at Famara in front of the Costa Noroeste will be your go to spot on Lanzarote to warm up for the more challenging reef breaks just a short drive away.<\/p>\n

\"\"

If you\u2019re not feeling up to the task of charging shallow, hard breaking barrels, there are plenty of less challenging breaks around Mundaka and throughout the Canaries, where you can improve your Spanish by making friends with locals in the line-up or in the many fine bars and restaurants you\u2019ll find on your travels!<\/p>\n
