Cascais is the perfect place to learn how to surf. The town is surrounded by many different types of beaches. The best beginners/intermediate surf beach is Guincho (pronounced Ginchu) 5 km's north west of Cascias town. It's a beautiful kilometre long stretch of beach.
Further north are two excellent beginners beaches Praia das Macas & Praia Grande. They are well worth the trip as they will take you past Cabo da Roca, mainland Europes most Western Point with a pretty impressive cliff top view.
A few hundred metres East of Cascais is Monte Estoril beach which has a small righthand wave that breaks regularly. There is a car park at its base accessed from a slip road above.
Follow the road east of Cascais along the Tagus river (Tejo in Portuguese) towards Lisbon and you will come across beach after beach offering a vast amount of surf: Bica is a great longboarders break on Sao Pedro beach. The beach has a few surf bars and restaurants and is a great place to spend the day.
Closer to Lisbon is Carcavelos beach - as the Stormriders surf guide call it: "the original and still one of the best Portuguese surf spots". Its a very consistent beach break and home to some of Portugals best surfers.
Its also worth taking the trip across the river Tagus to Costa Caparica - driving over the spectacular Ponte 25 de Abril bridge leaving Lisbon behind you. Costa Caprica is a 30 km strip of coast with some of the most consistent surf in Portugal.

Travelled as a couple
How did you like the accommodation?
The property is beautiful! Awesome pool and newly renovated rooms. It’s very chilled and friendly and Rita quickly made me and my friend feel welcome. Absolutely loved the morning yoga sessions which really set us up to have a great day. We stayed for 3 nights and met some lovely people.
How were the surf lessons?
The surf team are lovely and really helpful. I’m a beginner so needed quite a few tips and pointers. They were there to push you onto the wave if you wanted it or just let you do your thing. Guincho beach was awesome, serious waves for advanced surfers, but good for beginners too as it was shallow with no rocks.
Thanks love. I sincerely hope to see you back soon either here or somewhere else in the world
big hugs and kiss
