Arguably the single most impressive SUP tour you can do in Portugal. While all the mainstream tourists go to the Benagil caves the true connoisseurs come to discover our secret grottoes in Lagos. The dramatic cliffs, pinnacles, hidden beaches, and grotto caves around Lagos are as scenic as it gets. The hosts have an early bird approach: the golden light just after sunrise is magic, and there are minimal crowds. On demand, they can also offer a sunset tour, but only if there’s not too much wind in the afternoon.
Barragem de Bravura is the name of the beautiful lake where you will do this unique SUP tour at. The calm and clear freshwater lake is the perfect spot for stand-up-paddle beginners, families with kids, and people that do not feel comfortable in the open sea. Once you feel confident with your paddling skills you will realize the stunning nature around you. This tour lets you explore the green heart of the Algarve while getting a good workout for your whole body. Bring some empty water bottles to fill up in the lake. The water is the cleanest freshwater in the area!
On this tour, you will head to the beautiful Rio de Aljesur where you will start in the green and flourishing nature. Paddling along that river is a great way to start with stand-up-paddleboarding as there are no waves at all and the water is nice and clear. If you are lucky and the conditions allow, you can even try our skills in tiny waves close to the shore at the river mouth or you have the possibility to play around a bit trying some SUP-yoga or just jumping into the refreshing water.
The surf camp will take place in Algarve, Portugal. It is close enough to the buzzing tourist hotspot Lagos, but far enough to enjoy the relaxed vibe of nature. It has an excellent kitesurfing, surfing, and SUP spots in all directions.

The rough scenery and unspoiled nature are breathtaking. This region has one of the biggest and best-preserved coastlines in Europe.

Sandy beaches, crystalline lagoons, flat waters, and the fun waves make it the perfect location for your surfing holiday.
The place is located just in the middle of buzzing Lagos and secluded nature places. The nearest beach is only 700 meters away from the accommodation. Supermarket, ATM, restaurants, and several bars are just around the corner.
