Exceptional. I am not young. I am not a surfer. Therefore, I would especially like to emphasize the cordial and inclusive reception …
… of me by the young hosts and guests and their acceptance of me as a member of the community. A place “with soul”.
Chill and surf vibes. It’s an hostel plus the surf vibe! Really good accomodation to visit Sagres and the surroundings and to …
… experience the surfing culture and vibe. At the hostel you can book surfing lessons for the whole day. Every night activities to do at the hostel as well…I met a lot of interesting people! Breakfast was very good and healthy and volunteers they were nice people! Definitely a recommended place!
Great experience with Algarve surf scholl in Sagres. Everything was very well organised— boards, wetsuits, transport, and beach …
… selection were all taken care off. Very friendly, helpful instructors and the group atmosphere in the lesson was great. Meren was my daughter surf instructor she was very professional and very helpful to make her confident for her first lesson, helping her with technique in the water and spent time helping her feel safe with the waves. Alex in the shop was a darling extremely helpful and informative with us as we were completely inexperienced, when we rented a board and wetsuit on another day. Highly recommended if you’re surfing around Sagres.
An incredible experience! We did a two-day beginner course with Paco in Amado, and it was simply fantastic. I never could have …
… imagined that my first surf lesson would be this much fun — not even in my wildest dreams. He is super kind, attentive, and explains everything in a very easy-to-understand way. Tomás is also an organizational talent! Absolutely recommended.

When I first booked I thought I was going to a boring isolated small town, it would have been quiet but I really wanted to try out …
… surf for the first time and I found the price quite low. In the end it was a blast! It was a few years I didn’t have such a good, quality time in holiday. To enjoy it properly you should start from Monday/Sunday, these are the days when the surf camp kinda “reset” and people come and go. Amado Beach is where the surf lessons take place, the place is massive and sandy, very safe for beginners. I wanted to do 5 lessons and I ended up doin 7, after that I felt safe enough to go by myself another 2 times in another place in Portugal. Surf instructors are a bunch of very young and friendly people, their lessons were fun and well structured and beside the moves they will give you a great understanding about the sea and its dangers. The hostel is clean and cozy, nothing fancy but it has a really welcoming vibe, like time is passing slower than normally does. If you are a solo traveller this place is just perfect, just go surfing and you’ll make a lot of new friends!
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.
