Start the day with a yoga session on the beach. Return refreshed and ready for a day of surfing with a great breakfast in your room at around 09:00. The team will make the plan of the day and decide the surfing destination of the day. You will leave around 10:00 to the beach with better conditions where you start with a short introduction and warm up.

After 14:30 and two hours in the water, it's lunchtime. After the break, you will start the second class of the day. At the end of this surf day, you will be tired and your level of endorphins is very high, then it is time to go back to the beach and have a warm bath. Usually, the team organizes night walks to the typical restaurants of Sagres where everyone is welcomed.

At dinner, they have several choices from a big barbecue to a dinner with the whole team in several seafood restaurants in Sagres. Everyone is invited to join. Even if you are traveling alone, you will always have the company of everyone from day one. After an excellent dinner, depending on your energy, it's time for a drink in the bars or if you want to go rest to prepare for the next day.

At Thursdays, you will join the group and go to the most southwestern point of Europe, Cabo de São Vicente, to see the sunset. This a special moment that Wavesensations want to share with everyone. On the last day of the course, usually Fridays, it is time to review all week and share all the emotions with the other participants, so you will join in for a barbecue, where everyone is welcomed.
