Everything was great !
The house is nice and clean, with a cosy spacious garden we greatly enjoyed. Ricardo, the manager of the house is really friendly and welcoming, and very quick to answer on Whatsapp if you have any question. The breakfast is also very good (with plant milk options, fresh juice, and fruits), served by lovely people from Ricardo's family. Everyone there seems to care a lot about you enjoying your stay. It feels "homey", I would definitely come back !
Thank you so much Salma !!! Hope to see you again soon! ????????????
One of the best surf lessons I have had !
All the instructors I met (Thiago, Miguel, Ari and Simon) were so committed and really doing their best for us to improve and enjoy the moment. They gave us great advice, and were always encouraging.
Safety point - it appeared to me that they were paying high attention to everyone and all boards in the water, no matter the level, which is super reassuring.
Thanks again to all of them !

Kids Surf Lessons
This is the best opportunity for your children to experience real life and to give them a break from their technological lifestyle. Every day, we will assess the place according the tide, wind, swell size and direction, the same way experienced surfers would do. The waves aren’t made by a machine, so they are not always perfect on the same beach, depending on the day. Let us take your children to
Beginner Surf Lessons
In these two-hour surf lessons we introduce surfing fundamentals, etiquette, safety, wave dynamics, paddling skills, surfboard positioning, maneuvering, proper stand-up and riding techniques.
Intermediate Surf Lessons
Our Intermediate surf lessons are designed for surfers looking to fine-tune their surfing ability or take it to the next level. Our instructors join you in the water, analyze each wave you catch and provide detailed feedback to help you reach your surfing goals.
Advanced Surf Lessons
This course will help you improve your bottom turn and to learn top turns or cutbacks, how to duck dive, and how to take control of your speed. Progress from passively gliding down the wave to actively surfing it.
Learn how to generate speed, choose the right manoeuvres to stay in the power pocket of the wave, and how to improve your paddling technique so you use less energy.
Private Surf Lessons
A Beginner Private Surf Lesson is private instruction for you or your group of friends/family/co-workers. It can be 1-on-1 with an instructor or up to as many people as you’d like to bring. We assign one instructor for every 4 surfers in your group.
Yoga
Private instruction is here to help you tap into a deeper awareness of your body and reach your next level. Either a beginner or advanced yogi, private lessons benefit all. Focusing on individuals needs while accommodating personal alignments. Breathing, movement, relaxation, and stillness. Incorporating balance to your body, diet, routine, and lifestyle.
The perfect complement to a day of surf,
Sao Joao beach
Level: All Levels
Stretching away to the south of the Tejo River is a 30 km strip of coast that is the most consistent zone for Lisbon’s surfers. The northern section of this coast is built up and a number of jetties provide variety and stability to the sand bars. Look for the low tide lefts at Covo do Vapor and Rio plus the 7 jetties referred to as CDS. Further south, check Praia da Rainha for average, open beachbreak.
Sao Joao it is 5 minutes walking, right in front to the surfvilla.
Cabana do Pescado beach
Level: All Levels
10 minutes south by car from the surfvilla, it is one of the waves that we usually choose as well to give surflesson.
Less crowd and great waves.
Downtown Lisbon city itself does not have a beach and walking around siteseeing you may be oblivious to the fact that dozens of beautiful white sandy surf beaches are only a 5 minute car drive away (Or 4 train stops!)
The surrounding beaches pick up all the swells the Atlantic have to offer making it one of the most consistent surf destinations in the World.
The area has a good selection for all standards. Closest to the city would be Caxias & Santo Amaro de Oeiras. Caxias is a beautiful beach that on its day can produce perfect lefthander barrels. Oeiras is more of a winter wave and is one of the best waves in Portugal.
Next stop is Carcavelos, probably Portugal's most famous wave. Its one of the best beach breaks in Europe and regularly hosts National competitions. It suits all standards, a perfect place to learn and a great place to score some fast beach barrels with multiple peaks along the 1km stretch of beach.
There are many other spots along the coastline that runs from Lisbon out to Estoril & Cascais. Long boarders will love Sao Pedro and short boarders will thrive on spots like Poca and Sao Joao. Then on the other side of Cascais there is the stunning long white sandy Guincho beach, one of Portugal's most consistent surf spots, usually best in the morning as it can be exposed to afternoon onshore winds.
Across the river Tejo in Setubal, a 20 minute drive away, is the less crowded Costa de Caparica. Perfect for beginner/intermediates as the man made jetties create nice consistent waves. The beach stretches for 30kms and all of it is surfable!
Lisbon is also a great base to explore other regions. The surf mecca of Ericeira is only 35 minutes drive away and 1 hour north is Peniche, host of the WSL World Tour every October.
