The aim of this paper was to carry out a review of documents studying the surfing in formal education for discovering the programs developed and summarizing the pedagogical orientations for its application. Thus, a systematic review was performed in Dialnet, Eric, SciELO, Scopus and Web of Science databases. Twelve documents, published from 2008 to 2018, developed in five different countries and focused on surfing, bodyboarding and standup paddle, were retrieved. These documents concluded that a progressive approach to the aquatic environment and to surfing should be done in three phases (educational centre, swimming pool and beach), starting with the practice of bodyboard since it is easier and safer than shortboard surfing. The recess time should be used for travels in those sessions developed in the swimming pool and the beach. Moreover, these sessions should be scheduled in the last hours of the school day. Physical Education teachers willing to implement surfing in their sessions should gain knowledge about sea safety, surfing equipment and its own techniques.
