Tom Perry "Hi my name is Tom Perry, Head Coach at 7 Island Surf. Surfing has been part of my life for the past 20 years. It has taken me around the world, travelling to different countries, oceans, sampling different waves and cultures.
11 Years ago, I came to Fuerteventura to sample the waves on the North Shore. I have been here ever since !
In 2003 I decided it would be great to pass on my surfing knowledge and passion to others. My Surf Coaching career began in Cornwall (England) where I gained my first coaching experience working for 1 of the best Surf Schools in Britain (Harlyn Surf School). At this time I also gained the necesary Surfcoaching Qualifications and have been constantly improving them ever since.
I am now qualified to Level 3 by the Academy of Surfing Instructors (ASI) and am also an Internation Surfing Association (ISA) Surf Coach. I hold my full RLSS Beach Lifeguard Qualification too.
It has been, and still is, a priviledge to coach surfing. Helping beginners ride their first wave, helping surfers to reach their full potential and guiding surfers to the best waves of their lives. The most relevant part of the sport in my view is HAVING FUN !
Look forward to seeing you in sunny Fuerte. Tom
Sara Perry ;
Sara moved to Fuerteventura, about 11 years ago now, where she met Tom and they have been living there ever since. After studying Tourism in her home country Belgium, she started working for one of the most prestigious hotel chains in the Canary Islands. This has given her a wealth of experience when dealing with a variety of nationalities. Her studies provided the ability to speak 5 different languages, and previous office experience will ensure an excellent service to all 7 Islands clients.
At present she divides her time between their 2 boys (Matthew and Nick), her work at the hotel and 7 Island Surf. With the help of her Iphone, she will make sure to reply to emails as soon as she can.
