What you'll do

Trade the city streets for the rhythm of the tides on an epic pilgrimage from Milan to the raw beauty of the Atlantic. This is a classic European road trip designed for those who believe the journey is just as important as the destination. Riding together in a van, you’ll cross the diverse landscapes of France and northern Spain, building a unique bond with your fellow travelers long before the first wave is caught. Your destination is Somo, the heart of Cantabria’s surf culture. Known for its golden sands and consistent peaks, Somo offers the perfect canvas for every level of surfer. Our days are defined by the ocean: wake up to the salt air, refine your technique with expert instructors, and enjoy the freedom of sunset sessions as the sky turns to fire over the Bay of Biscay. Between swells, you’ll dive into the laid-back Cantabrian lifestyle, exploring hidden coastal trails and sharing local cider in sun-drenched plazas. By the time we head back toward the Alps, you’ll carry more than just new skills—you’ll return with the unmistakable glow of the road and a tribe of new friends. Buckle up, wax your board, and join us for the ultimate Atlantic odyssey.

Hostel in Avignon Nord Le Pontet (Night 10)


As we leave the shores of Somo behind, our journey turns east, winding through the lush landscapes of Northern Spain before crossing the border into the heart of Provence. En route to the historic city of Avignon, watch the scenery shift from rugged Atlantic coastlines to the sun-drenched rolling hills of France. We’ll settle in for the night in the City of Popes, resting up before the final leg of our adventure.
