These lessons are for those students who wish to continue learning and perfecting the techniques learnt in the beginners level.

Season
Best time to go depends on your level above. July, August & September are the peak tourist months.
This is where you surf Europe's best coast line and let the fun begin.There are over 12 surf breaks along the Ericeira coast, with different options for all standards. With so much choice you'll feel like a kid in a sweet shop! The area was introduced in the Stormriders Surf Guide to Europe with the heading "Enter the Heartland".
World Surf Reserve
In 2011 it was awarded the title of 'World Surf Reserve', there are only 2 other places in the world that share the title: Santa Cruz, US and Manly, Australia.
If it is your first surfing holiday to Ericeira then head straight to Foz do Lizandro and Sao Juliao beaches south of town, they are perfect beginner and intermediate surf spots. Closer to town is Praia do Sul. Another great beginner beach breaks. All best at mid tide but surfable at high and low tide also.
For Intermediates you have the reliable and safe reef break Ribeira d'Ilhas, which host the WSL World qualifying series surf championships every year. And for the more adventurous you have the world class Coxos. That's just naming a few, there are too many surf breaks to mention here!
Don't forget to explore further up the coast - 25 minutes away is Santa Cruz and an hour away is Peniche, home to the World renowned Supertubos and host of the Rip Curl Pro since 2009. 30 minutes south of Lisbon is the Cascais coast with the famous Praia do Guincho surf beach. And when north winds are blowing you can venture further south towards Carcevelos beach and the other surf spots along the Lisbon coast.

The best surf choice you could make!
I highly recommend Ericeira surf school for anyone - from beginners to experienced. Bruno is the best surf instructor I have ever had! He is very professional and caring that each student would do his best and have the most fun. I suggest him for those who want to actually learn! Me and my boyfriend started standing up on white water and now we are dropping some outside wavesWe already have come back for the 4th time and hopefully will for many more!

Absolutely amazing!
I surfed with Bruno over the winter and had an absolutely fantastic time! Bruno brings so much energy to the water and gives lots of feedback so you improve fast.
If you are looking to really make progress on your surfing and receive constructive and relevant feedback I would recommend this school 100%! They were always kind, always excited for progress made and always made sure we had the best possible conditions to improve in.
An absolute diamond of a school!

Great surf coaching!
While I stayed in Ericeira, I practiced surfing with Bruno and had a great time in the water! The school offers excellent feedback and great surf equipment. I would recommend Ericeira Waves surf school! I can't wait to go back and take my surfing to the next level.
