We tailor your experience by taking you to surf beaches that match your skill level, including famous spots like Arrifana, Monte Clérigo, or Amoreira. The exact beach will be announced the day before your lesson, as we consider your skill level and the wind and wave conditions.

During your approximately 2-hour lesson, you'll learn about waves, currents, tides, and equipment, as well as how to paddle and handle the surfboard correctly in the water. You'll always remember the thrill of catching your first wave and taking off into your new passion for surfing!
