Excellent, successful surf experience!
Bruno was on time, took our small group to the coast, gave us thorough instructions, and then helped us out in the water the whole time. The wetsuits provided made the water comfortable. I was traveling and felt very safe. I would highly recommend this surf experience!

Half-day surfing experience
Half a day of surfing was very well spent! My kids really enjoyed it, and the waves were good enough for complete beginners. The instructors were friendly and helpful, and the pick-up and transport were very well organised. Overall, a great experience for the whole family. Highly recommended!

It was great and highly recommended
I give 5 because I cannot give 10 stars. I had already taken several classes and coming back this year was just INCREDIBLE. Afonso was an instructor who combined humor with patience and managed to get them catching waves. The remaining team was also spectacular. Thank you

Great experience
It was great from start to finish. The teachers were patient and attentive. We took a private lesson for my son and it was a very nice format. The teacher spoke slowly and checked that I understood since my English is not great. Smiling and friendly staff. I highly recommend. They know how to make you feel confident.

Surf Lesson in Lisbon – The surf experience
Sarah_F, Aug 2026
10/10 surfing experience.
Absolutely worth every penny! The company called a car (uber) to get us to the beach. Our group had experienced people with us and we were the only first time surfers, so we had an instructor to ourselves. He was amazing and we were all up on the boards surfing the waves in no time. After the lesson, we were allowed to stay at the beach and we could let them know when we were ready to uber back. And they even called the car to bring us straight to our hotel instead of the meeting spot. 10/10. Definitely recommend.
