    Surf Portugal

    It’s all about the surf! You’ll be staying in our villa directly by the beach at the surf spot. Have a great break while learning or improving your surfing.

    Our Portugal Surf Vacations camps are designed so that you can quickly learn the basics of surfing and soon be able to ride your first wave. For more advanced surfers, we individually adapt the course content to your abilities.

    • Gliding and manoeuvring the surfboard

    We only use new, high-quality soft and fibre boards on our training courses. We select the surfing spot and surfboards according to your ability and the current conditions.

    Surf Course Content for Advanced Surfers

    The advanced surfing course (level 2 ) is aimed at surfers who have successfully completed at least one week’s surfing course, can perform a safe takeoff, and every so often ride green waves.

    • Improve your paddling and diving technique
    • Assessing conditions (accurately analyse the tide & wind charts for your location)
    • Lining yourself up / timing and positioning of the lineup
    • Safely finding and surfing green waves
    • Mastering first manoeuvres (bottom turn / top turn)

    We adapt the course aims individually to your abilities; you train independently within your course group. Your surfing instructor will give you individual tips to improve your technique, including using video analysis. We also advise you on choosing the right surfboard; we have many different models and shapes for you to try out.
