NOTES
For travellers with a bit of experience, who want to rent equipment and not only follow our lessons, they will have to rent a car as the spots are spread all around the costs. We also organise «surfaris», in this case clients follow us or join us in the school van to reach the spot but they don’t follow the lesson, they are on theyr own. Line Up schools provide water & sun screen All instructors have the required diplomas by law. We have a very wide range of conditions for every watersports during the year. It is good to note that the trade wind season starts from april to september, we have wind all year long but in winter you can get weeks without. If we can not provide the course that was booked, we propose some alternative activities, or a credit could be kept for a period of 1year. At the end of the stay a balance of payment/activities is done, eventualy Line Up will refund the difference. Conditions with operators shall be discussed
