Location

Sagres is the main surf town in the South of Portugal, offering a wide and varied selection of waves all within a very small area.

Sagres is a place privileged by mother to nature, with coastlines facing both South and West. That is the reason why the area is known for having the highest swell consistency in all Continental Europe.

The town has many great bars and restaurants and is a great surf hub during the summer.

How did you like the accommodation?

     

The room was nice but a bit small for 3 people and the luggage. But I didn't spend much time in the room anways, so it was fine. The pillows could be better, mine was quite hard.
The bathrooms, kitchen and dining area are modern and clean. I like the interior design and the colour concept.

The outdoor area could have been nicer and more inviting to sit outside. A lounging area like the one inside would make a big difference.

The breakfast was very good with fresh bread, boiled eggs, coffee, juice, joghurt, müsli, sweet spreads, fruits, cheese and ham.

The staff was nice and helpful if you had a question.

Sagres is a small relaxing town with some nice bars and restaurants. It's good if you're there for surfing, but if not, it can get a bit boring after a few days. It's worth stopping by, exploring the beaches and watch the sunset at the lighthouse. Make sure you have a look at the big pottery shop. It's worth it!

I've enjoyed my stay there with SUP, yoga, surfing, fresh fish and relaxing on the beach.

PS: If you have the chance to be in Sagres on a wednesday night, join the party croud on the main street and check out the bars.


How were the surf lessons?

     

The instructors I had in my lessons were all nice and helpful. I've liked the fact that they drove us to different beaches, depending on the conditions to make sure we get waves which were suitable for our level.

I've had a good time there surfing. :)

This area of Portugal is a year round surf destination and has the warmest sea water in the country. In the summer months you can surf in just shorts or a shortie and it doesn't get dark until 10pm so you can surf all day long! The coastline is part of the protected natural park with 50 kilometres of protected beaches with no large towns or high rise tourist accommodations. Instead you will discover beautiful pristine beaches and small traditional towns a far cry from the main overrun Algarve tourist spots.

Amado beach is the areas best beginner/intermediate surf beach and a great starting point. Amado is surrounded by many other great surf breaks with options for all standards. Praia da Cordoama is one of the most picturesque beaches in Portugal, a long stretch of sand protected by cliffs, a great intermediate spot. Praia do Castelejo beside it is even more consistent.

There's a dozen beaches further north all worth exploring including Arrifana & Amoreira, two very consistent beginner/intermediate beach breaks.

Furthest south is the laid back surf town of Sagres. The beaches East of Sagres such as Zavial & Martinhal are usually calm and require a big swell to work, they are a great alternative if the surf on the beaches on the West coast are too big. There are many hidden spots around Sagres some of which will require an SUV to get too but are well worth it especially for the more experienced.
