About Algae Surf Camp
Algae Surf Camp is an eco-friendly surf camp tucked into a green, quiet corner of Máncora at La Maison, just off Quebrada La Pepa and a five-minute barefoot walk from the town's main surf break. It pairs relaxed, sustainable accommodation with structured surf coaching, making it a popular base for travellers who want to learn or free-surf in a calm, community-minded setting.
Surf lessons run 1 hour 15 minutes with a local instructor and include a wetsuit and surfboard, while multi-day board rental packages suit those already surfing on their own. The camp offers three all-inclusive weeklong options — a beginner bed-and-breakfast package with five lessons, an intermediate free-surfing package with board rental, and a surf-and-yoga package — plus daily yoga classes, therapeutic massage and healthy breakfasts.
Beyond the waves, the Algae team acts as a local guide hub, arranging kitesurfing, diving and whale-watching excursions around the north coast. The emphasis on eco-conscious hosting, small-group instruction and an unhurried garden-oasis atmosphere gives the camp a distinctive feel compared with the busier beachfront operators, and keeps guests returning for the community as much as the surf.
