Instructors
Jorge
Jorge has an international experience having lived in the UK, France, and Australia. He brings a wealth of knowledge and a different way to see things. He caught the surf "bug" while living in Australia although he has always been interested in surf and water sports. Jorge is a qualified surf instructor, certified by the Portuguese Surfing Federation.
Location
This surf camp is based in a four-star camping park right in front of a private beach where only guests of the campsite can access. This means we are the only surfers, there are no crowds, impossible to find anywhere else in Portugal during the summer.
The surf camp is right by the beach, it'll take you a three-minute walk from your tent to the beach! In the community area, you’ll find an open and equipped kitchen with a shared fridge and several hobs. Visit the surf camp bar to grab a refreshing drink after a long, sunny day on the beach. At night, gather around the campfire with the other guests and the crew to share a moment of camp stories and laughter.
