Gran Canaria for 
Surfing is a girl's business
Who ever said surfing and bodyboarding are not a girls’ business? This may be so in other parts of the globe, but not in Gran Canaria! On the island’s beaches, the two disciplines have become more and more popular among girls. On the island’s beaches, girls fight for the good wave. There is no gender discrimination here. Everyone is in the water for the same reason: to catch the best series of morning, afternoon, weekend waves.
On quiet days and on big wave days. On the most protected beaches, where you learn how to stand on the surfboard, and on the less accessible coastal areas, where the waves break more violently.
On out-of-sight beaches, where the best waves hide and only the really good ones dare… there you will also see the best surfer girls.
Local sportswomen do not have second thoughts about competing against the boys. The local talent can thus boast of having true champion girls such as the Taylor sisters. Marina, the world’s second best bodyboarder, and Adelina, European surfing champion, live in the capital city and already have their own school, where they teach anyone who begins to suspect that catching waves is more exciting than watching others surf on them.
Are you looking for a little adrenaline of for a treatment for boredom? Perhaps what you need is some surf fever. Consider it! There must be something in it that makes surfers arrive at the beach before anyone else and get into the water when the sun is not even fully up yet.
If you are looking for a place where to learn how to surf, an island with good weather, then you must come to Gran Canaria, with its different schools where to take your first steps. Needless to say, if you are a girl, do not let anyone tell you this is not for you. In Gran Canaria, you will see that surfing IS a girl’s business.
