Accommodatie
Magikvanilla is a converted traditional Portuguese house with spacious common areas, sundecks, chill out spots, and balconies. Located a few minutes’ away from beaches and the town center but secluded enough to give you privacy, you just need to go down the road to find a pharmacy, supermarket, or restaurant.
The house offers dorms up to five people, double, and twin rooms. You’re welcome to use the kitchen, barbecue, TV lounge, as well as the chill out areas, sun decks, and terraces at any time.
The camp has double and twin rooms, and dorms up to five people. Each three rooms share a bathroom – apart from the bungalows, ‘The Duke’ and 'Captain Jack' which have their own.
You have at your disposal a fully equipped kitchen, five bathrooms, all with showers or bathtubs, sunny balconies, a barbecue, TV room with cable TV and DVD player with a selection of classics that you can play, indoors and outdoors dining areas, hammocks, sunbeds. If you want to team up or / and challenge a friend, you can always use the billiard or the football table, everything to make you feel at home.
Programma
You'll be assessed and grouped according to your experience and coached in small groups. Magikvanilla Surf Camp keeps a ratio of 5 or fewer guests per instructor to guarantee quality, safety, and fun. They always aim to teach on a beach break (sandy beach) even if they need to drive further along the coast.
Overall they will be looking to learn / improve your pop-up and paddle techniques, front side and backside turns, and help you with wave timing. With the video analysis session, you will be able to watch and talk through the areas you are already smashing and the ones you can improve.
Surf
You will have 4 surf lessons during this week. The times depend on the sea conditions, which vary daily. So, every day, they check the forecasts to choose the best timings. Throughout the week, you may have from early sessions to sunset surf. All lessons are two hours long at the beach and include gear, insurances, and transfers.
Unless you’ve signed up for intermediate or advanced classes, you won’t need any experience. Just to be able to swim comfortably in the ocean, be eager to learn and keep a positive attitude. They have a lot of experience with beginners, and they’re stoked to share the first wave with you.

Steven Ross Painter
Steve is from the UK and he fell in love with Ericeira in 2004 in one of his surf trips. He moved to Portugal in 2008 and in 2013, he founded Magikvanilla Surf Camp. He is a Level 2 Certified Surf Instructor by ISA, as well as a qualified lifesaver through the Royal Life Saving Society GB and Surf Life Saving GB. He is a dedicated surf coach and gets a genuine buzz when you stand up for the first time. You will most definitely hear him cheer for you. He loves surfing and football, so you will hear him every so often singing football songs honouring Luton Town FC.
Locatie
Magikvanilla sits in one of the few secluded properties in Ericeira. Right next to it, the community garden and a picnic park give it a feel of being surrounded by nature and sea. Within minutes, you can walk to different beaches or pop down the town center. You just need to go down the road to find a pharmacy, supermarket, or restaurant.
This beautiful seaside town, once home for the Phoenicians, became the county of Ericeira in 1229. By then, seafarers, royalty, and wanderers already enjoyed the same beaches, valleys, and bays as people do today.
In 2011, Ericeira became the first World Surfing Reserve in Europe, second in the world. It is a place praised for eight kilometers of shoreline brimming with world-class surf spots and one of the most preserved surf-havens on the planet. It is a small town but full of life. Especially in the sunny seasons, when days and nights are warm and long-lasting.
The center is bubbling with people, street fairs, lovely shops, and a great variety of bistros, cafes, and terraces. The evening starts slow, with plenty of restaurants serving dinner until late, pubs, bars, folk parties, and even a club open until the early hours in the summer.
All of this is so close to the main capital, Lisbon, that offers frequent flights from all the major cities in the world and a must see if you travel to Portugal. Magikvanilla Surf Camp is 35 minutes away from one of the most beautiful towns in the world, a UNESCO World Heritage Site called Sintra and the camp often organizes trips to this location.
