Ericeira, pronounced Eery-Say-Reh is the surf capital of Portugal, often described as a Surfing Mecca due to its abundance of waves and situated only 40 minutes from Lisbon and 30 minutes from the airport, making this a great destination for surfers of all abilities.

It's a fantastic place to learn how to surf with a variety of fun beach-breaks, and for the more intermediate and advanced there is a host of reef breaks offering up left and right-hand barrels and walling point-breaks.
