- Well, what can I say?! I had the best time in Baleal. The beach is stunning, the weather was perfect and the surfing was tough but brilliant despite the many wipeouts!! I caught some good waves and although still very much a beginner, my technique has definitely improved. The thrill of catching a good wave made all the hard work so worth it! The instructors were really great, very patient and encouraging. There were only 5 of us in the class with 2 instructors so they were really able to watch you and help you progress. We surfed in 3 different spots over the 5 days and it was obvious that the instructor really wanted the best conditions for the class. It was much more intense than I expected and you really have to work hard for it. In saying that though I really did enjoy it.The Beach house was great. Only 2 mins to the beach and the supermarket, the bedrooms and kitchen were spotless and well equipped. Everyone who worked there was very helpful and friendly. I met some great people and will definitely return next year. Definitely a big thumbs up from me! - Edel, Dublin
- Firstly i like to say a big thanks for making this holiday happen we all are depressed to be home so that's a good sign, some really nice days of surfing and other activities, accommodation was great, - Beach house and apartment were nice. The place was amazing the waves were so clean and so many different places to surf nearby. Instructors were a great bunch of guys, Silvano visits Ireland regularly so we have to arrange to meet up.

- Did I enjoy it? Put it this way, the taxi arrived to bring me home at 6:30AM, i met him, paid him 5 euro to go home, and i stayed a second week! Dave, Dublin
- I had a great surf holiday at the Baleal surf House. The surf instructors were great and really gave you personal advice- the small beginner group size was great and I really felt like I made some progress. The accomodation and the surf school were great and the staff were really helpful and chilled, despite the fact I wanted to do a course from tuesday to tuesday rather than saturday. All round a very happy customer. Suzannah, Uk
- The surf house was great. It was awesome to have a BBQ available for use. More importantly, the surf was amazing! The instructors were great - they were awesome teachers and really friendly. They made a big effort to teach us all about surfing (how to read the waves, visit to the surf factory to see how the boards are made, surf etiquette etc.) which really made it a well rounded experience. We did a little tour of Peniche on a day when the surf wasn't great, which was a nice little bonus! I had a fantastic surf holiday! Thanks for your help! Sheena, Ontario, Canada
- Had a great time in Baleal. The people and the service were first class. Transport to and from the airport was on time, no waiting at all. The location is very convenient, the surf centre/ bruno's bar couldn't be in a better spot. It was very handy to be able to turn up to the beach and get the same wetsuit and board that you were using all week, no lugging boards and wetsuits all over the place. The lads working in the surf camp were very helpful, again first class service.
Lessons were good and the instructors were enthusiastic and good at ironing out any kinks in your surfing. Baleal had several bars and restaurants. Food was good and reasonably priced. (€10-20 main course) There is a very good seafood restaurant in Peniche, out near the lighthouse. We ate there as a group on two evenings, transport was organised by the guys in the surf camp. It was more expensive (€20-30 for main course) but was some of the best seafood that I've ever had. The town of Peniche is worth a visit. Went over on the Sunday when there were no lessons and also with the surf group. They take you over for a morning before the trip to the surf board factory. Overall it was a great surf holiday and I would definately go back. Brian, Ireland
- Accommodation was really nice, great outdoor area for sitting around enjoying cold beers and having a bbq in the evening. Beds were grand, plenty of hot water for showers which was great. Spent most time around the beach - had a few restaurants and bars there which was good. Went to a really nice fish restaurant on a headland outside Peniche, can’t remember the name, maybe someone who was there that week knows. The guys in the surf base on the beach were great, really friendly, good boards and suits. All in all a good surf holiday, cheers for the organization and also the recommendation on the Living lounge hostel in Lisbon, probably the best hostel I’ve stayed in. Mark, Cork
- The place was great! was very happy with the accommodation and the surf school. No complaints! Fran, Ireland
- Surf Holiday was fantastic, completly exhausted after it! Everything was top notch especially the instructors who really pushed you from day one. Surfing wise it was a bit flat the first few days which was good to learn the basics. We never really went into Peniche, mainly because the craic was so good at the surf house. Bruno, Marcos are sound guys, helpful and will go for a beer with you. Bar de Bruno is good at the weekend, we mainly hit the cocktail bar (about 1km walk), most nights. As a solo traveler I would recommend it, I was surprised by the number of solo travelers there, so I didn't feel out of place. Overall an excellent trip, I'm thinking of heading back out in October for another week, highly recommend surfing to anyone! Ronan, Donegal – Ireland
- I had a class time, weather was brilliant, accommodation was good. The surfing lessons were hard work with yoga at the start as a warm up, but great fun and great exercise. I meet loads of people and went to six bbq's each night! every night I ate for a tenner!!! To be honest Ill probably head back in September or October. Cheers for sorting me out, Ill get in contact with you all hopefully shortly. John, Meath, Ireland
- I had a great time in Peniche thanks. The accomodation was clean and comfortable, all the staff very friendly, and the surfing tuition was excellent. So all in all a big thumbs up!! Thanks - Tom UK
- I couldn't rate the place highly enough. It really is incredible how it caters for all types of surfers from me an absolute beginner to your full-time surfers. The hostel is fantastic and all of the staff: Marcos, Bruno, Andre and Luis were brilliant. Baleal beach and Peniche are both fantastic places to stay and I will without doubt be booking in again before the end of the summer. It's just brilliant for anyone interested in surfing as if the staff were'nt already great at giving advice the other residents, many of whom had been there for their 3rd visit, were practically surf Guru's for their willingness to give advice.Thanks again. - Niall, Ireland
- Had the most amazing time in Peniche it was beautiful the surf was wow even got up on the board a few times!! Was going to even try the super tube!!! What really made the holiday was the people i met and Marcos and crew could not have been nicer guys and for that reason alone i will defo b going back. Thanks a million for one buz of a holiday - Orla, Ireland
- Yeah it was great craic, Bruno really looked after us, he is a gas man. Crazy! It was a very good week, made some good buddys too. Lovely spot, will be back.Cheers! Ciara, Ireland
- I just wanted to write to say thank you for such an amazing week, we had an incredible time! I wish it could have been for longer.The service, the lodgings and lessons were great and will def be coming back and telling people about it - Francois, Capbreton
- Thank you again, you all did such an incredible job and now I’m addicted to surfing!!!! Big hugs to everyone, we miss you all already! - Silvie :) (UK)
- Thank you for a great week at the Surf House. Also the day in Lisbon was an amazing way to end the trip, you two were the best guides to the city a tourist could wish for. Thanks again and see you soon! - Russel, England
