Copenhagen Surf School

We are a small energetic surf family where passion and work go hand in hand. The surf school is founded on strong friendship and our shared burning passion for windsurfing. When you go surfing with us, you are taught by deeply professional instructors and we only use State of the Art – surf equipment. For us, quality and professionalism mean absolutely everything and we never compromise, that's a promise!
