All bedrooms have uninterrupted views of the coastline. The house looks out onto Lagide, the famous reef break right on our back yard. Peniche needs no introduction, it is home to some of the most consistent surf in Europe.
The spectacular Surf Castle is divided into 3 properties: The main surf house, Casa Grande, the smaller house, Casa da Guarda and the Studio Apartment. All rooms offer stunning views across the spectacular Peniche coastline. No other accommodation in the area sits in a position like the Surfcastle does.
The house was built in 1920, and used as a family holiday residence for many decades and much of the original furniture still exists to this day, making a stay at the house an authentic and vintage Portuguese experience.

Awesome location and group dynamics, the host João and his team makes everybody feel like part of a surfing family.
The castle is just a great please to stay with this beautiful view of the ocean....
I booked a single room with sheared bathroom and it was totally fine and clean.
Amazing breakfast with other visitors made my stay there even more special. Many great people from all over the world. Good and funny conversations every morning. The staff made me feel like the place would be my second home.
My very favourite restaurant is Taberna Do Ganhao just a few minutes walk from the castle.
I love the beaches.
The teachers are very experienced and the lessons were good.
We provide Airport Transfers from and to Lisbon and they can be booked in the booking steps.

The best thing about the Peniche & Baleal peninsula is that the beaches face both north and south, and are all within a few kilometres of each other. So on nearly all conditions there is surf - it is well known as one of Portugal's most consistent surf destinations and a great place for a Surfing Holiday.
The WSL World Tour comes to Peniche every year in October and is a great time to visit if you want to watch the worlds best surfers such as Kelly Slater, Gabriel Medina & Mick Fanning battle it out to win. Surf everyday while watching the event also.
The areas main surf beach is called Cantinho da Baía, its starts in Peniche and ends up in the area knows as Baleal. The spot is famous for its consistency and for being ideal for beginners and intermediate surfers and is where some of the best Baleal Surf Camps are located. Protected from the bigger swell by the headland makes it’s almost always possible to surf here even when there is big swell hitting the coast. The beach stretches 4kms further west with many spots to surf - a great place to get away from crowds.
On the other side of the Baleal headland is Prainha, another great protected surf spot for beginner and intermediate surfers. And next to this is Lagide , a reef break and one of the best surf spots in Portugal if you have big swell and southerly winds. It's a long perfect left with a shallow reef at low tides - great for intermediate/advanced surfers.
On the other side of Peniche (south) is the area's and arguably Portugal's most famous break Supertubos . It's a powerful wave breaking in very shallow sand bar, advanced/pro surfers only! Other waves such as Molhe Leste, Consolação, Porto Batel and Almagreira are all close by giving every kind of alternative including many uncrowded areas; a great area to explore and Surf Portugal's best waves!
And don't forget you can head south and surf Ericeira - less than an hour's drive away.
