Program
Welcome to the surf paradise
Are you ready to ride the waves of the Atlantic Ocean with grace? At the surf camp in the sunny Algarve, Algarve Watersport offers surfing lessons for intermediates with motivational and professional instruction and perfect green waves to surf!
A surfing camp is not only about progression and achievement but also fun, comfort, and health. After a surf session and a few waves, your dopamine is pumping and a smile won’t come off your face, so they created community areas that are perfect to chill, hang out, and share the stoke with other surfers. Come to Lagos, Portugal, enjoy riding the waves, meet with like-minded people, and be a part of a great adventure!
You’ll meet with watersport enthusiasts from all around the world, learn and improve together, and share knowledge and passion. Everyone has an individual goal; it can be catching a first wave or working on bottom turns. They’ll help you to be your best version and reach your goals. During the surf camp, they will make you feel comfortable from the very start; the instructors will teach you how to read waves and will focus on you improving your technique day by day.
With consistently great surf conditions all year round, you can be sure that there will always be waves waiting for you in this stunning coastal region of Portugal. Each day, the surf and yoga camp schedule can be different, as the timing of surf lessons depends on the tides and waves.
This camp is recommended for people who can paddle out to catch green waves.
Afternoons for video analysis / paddle sessions and chill
Surf skating
1 surf skating class is included in your package. Surf skating mimics the movements of surfing on land, helping you to perfect your balance, turns, and overall technique. It’s a fun and effective way to boost your performance on the waves while not getting wet.
Yoga
