Canidelo is where most of the Gaia surf spots are located has the beaches are all blue flags, with showers and lots of send.....
Walking distance from our surf camp you will easily find everything you need to have a great time. Bars, restaurants for all kind of tastes and wallets, supermarket and bus stop (directly to Porto centre).
The sunsets are breathtaking.... long walk side where you can enjoy the local lifestyle with PT people!!
Based in a local camping site, our surf camp is going back to the roots. Like in the 80´s we remake the same style. Our accommodation is in tents.
Of course the tents and inside comfort worn´t forgotten so even staying in a tent there's a lot of space and comfort.
In a time when everyone is going in lodges etc, we decided to bring back the classic and "old style surf camp". In modern times it isn't easy to find a balanced offer like ours. Hope you sign in and have a great trip to the pass but..... with modern and actual gear!!

Paredão Salgueiros
Level: All Levels
It´s an right hand wave with send bar + few rocks and a small pear.
The inside is easy to ride, outside after 1,5mts requires surfing knowledge.
Locals are in general frendly but not to tolerant whenwhen behavior is not good from the visitors.
Praia Canide Norte - Grão D´Areia
Level: All Levels
Open send bar works good until 1,5mts, more than that have to be really good wave shape.
Waves are strong even when is small. Usually not to crowd so you can score good waves in small days without any one in the water.
The best time to surf Porto is between Spring through to Autumn. It's main surf beach is Matosinhos beach, the best surf spot in Porto for beginner and intermediates. Its a long 1km sandy beach with a few different points on it. The set up is a mix of beach break and reef break and parts of it are sheltered so it handles larger swell. Easy to get to and consistent.
Next to Matosinhos is International Beach. A lovely spot that begins where the city park ends. Its also a great learner spot, and a great place to hang out both during day and at night. Further north is Leca, a very consistent beach break protected by the harbour.
In and around the city there are small little beaches all worth exploring, particularly for the more advanced surfers wanting to discover the best Porto surf breaks.
There are more surf breaks further south including Barra do Porto and Miramar and then 20km south of Porto are the towns of Esphino and Esmoriz. Its arguably the North's most famous surf area and the beaches have a real nice surf culture. The area's 3 main beaches are Silvade, beach, Blue beach and Baia beach. A mix of sandy beach breaks and reef spots that suit beginner and advanced. Hang around and score some long barreling right & left handers all to yourself.
