The Camp, Aldeia da Praia sits right between a sandy pine forest and the two Sintra beaches of Praia das Maçãs and Praia Grande. It is a 10 minute walk from the camp to both destinations with fine, white sand where the waves are rolling in. At sunset, you will have the most beautiful view with the sun disappearing into the sea. You'll find a common kitchen, supermarket, and a few cafés and restaurants, all around the Aldeia da Praia where the hostel is located.
You are offered hostel accommodation in family, twin, or double rooms with ensuite bathrooms and dormitory rooms with 4, 6, or 8 beds including ensuite bathrooms. All beds have heavenly Nordic duvet covers, crispy linen, and a small locker compartment to put your belongings away. Bring a padlock or purchase one at the reception.
In the campers lounge, you will find a kitchen to cook and a fridge to store your groceries. Make good use of the barbecue and enjoy the wonderful Sintra nights. Also, you can relax at the hostel living room, read that book that you wanted to finish for many weeks, and/or just be outside on one of the many terraces and decks and enjoy the special Sintra ocean air.
If you want, you could book your yoga in advance so they are able to secure the classes for you. Everybody is welcome, whether a beginner or a pro, and classes can always be taught at least in English, Spanish and Portuguese.

It was a lovely week at the surf camp. The surfing trainers were really helpful and paid attention to all participants. I got free photos from one of my lessons. The location of the camp is about 1.5 km from the beach were we were surfing- praia Grande. I had only one lesson at a different location and the transport was provided. Overall- good value for money. If you haven't tried surfing yet, it's a good place to start.

I’ve spent such a great week with Surf At. The team is very very welcoming. Coaches are so nice and give you great and specific advices, they give me so much motivation even when I was not happy about myself. I am very glad of my surf class week. And the place is really beautiful.

Sintra's two main beaches are Praia das Macas and Praia Grande. Both are perfect beginner/intermediate beaches and are some of the most consistent surf beaches in the whole Lisbon-Sintra area. North and South of these beaches are many small coves and beautiful hidden beaches that provide any exploring surfer with plenty to get excited about!
Close by is Praia Guincho, a spectacular long beach with different peaks, perfect for learning and can get big and windy in the afternoon, so morning is always the best bet here.
Ericeira is only 30 minutes drive and is definitely worth a day trip at least, it has dozens of surf beaches to offer including the famous point break Ribeira D'Ilhas and also the relaibale beach break Foz do Lizandro.
