1.
I have surfed in Caleta di Famara between mountains, volcanos and sand dunes, with a light wind gushed from the waves. I was blown away by the beauty of the landscape.
2. While surfing you have to pay attention to the currents otherwise you risk to be drifted out to ocean.
3, After a surf session where you manage to catch a wave and ride it until the beach, you walked away with a total sense of fulfillment, even if to catch it you need to suffer a little bit and fight against the ocean.
