… time, I surfed with the school for five days.
All the surf instructors and the staff at the surf shop were incredibly kind, friendly, helpful, and fun. They were always happy to see me again when I came back the other two times. Depending on your booking, they pick you up either directly from their hostel, from the surf shop, or sometimes even from the address you provide, and they also bring you back afterward. Of course, you can also follow with your own car.
During the main season, they always go to Praia do Amado beach, where the surf school also has another shop for renting surfboards and wetsuits. In the off-season, the instructors always check which nearby beaches have the best waves and conditions for the course. This can be Praia do Beliche, Praia do Tonel, or Praia da Mareta.
The surf instructors Tomas, Ficho, Julia, Miguel, Mika, and (Ronal) always do their best to teach the whole group, but also to support each person individually, giving tips to help you improve. They always combine this with a bit of fun.
I can only highly recommend this surf school and will definitely go back to Sagres to surf with them again. It’s been one of the best surfing experiences of my life.
Sagres, Portugal
Our home base is Sagres – the laid-back surf town at the edge of Europe, where two coastlines meet and the waves keep rolling all year.
We teach mainly at Praia da Mareta in Sagres and Praia do Amado in Carrapateira – two of the Algarve’s most consistent and beginner-friendly surf spots, each offering ideal conditions depending on the wind and swell.
Thanks to the unique geography of the Sagres area, we can adapt to wind and swell, choosing the best beach each day to give you the safest and most rewarding surf session.
Waves all year long?
Yes. You're in the right place.
Need to bring surf gear?
Nope. we’ve got you covered
Selling beach wear too?
Yes. we got the good stuff.
Mild winters, sunny skies, and consistent Atlantic swells make the Algarve a true year-round surf destination. Whether you're coming for summer sun or winter waves, we’ve got the gear and the local knowledge to make it work.
