Located in Colares, a picturesque region that is part of the municipality of Sintra, a place recognized for its rich history, UNESCO heritage, and inspiration it has offered to writers and poets throughout the centuries. Moby Dick Lodge is the ideal place for nature and sea lovers, allowing them to explore the history and natural beauty of the area.
In addition to offering a privileged location in Colares, Moby Dick Lodge is conveniently situated near a variety of essential services. Within a few minutes' walk, you will find a self to service laundry, grocery stores, restaurants, cafes, and pastry shops.

The proximity to beautiful beaches such as the stunning Adraga Beach, the cozy Praia das Maçãs, and the vast Praia Grande, among others, makes this an unmissable destination for those who wish to enjoy the Sintra region. We highlight the easy access to Praia das Maçãs, which can be reached by the historic Sintra tram, making the journey to the beach a true pleasure.

Sintra's two main beaches are Praia das Macas and Praia Grande. Both are perfect beginner/intermediate beaches and are some of the most consistent surf beaches in the whole Lisbon-Sintra area. North and South of these beaches are many small coves and beautiful hidden beaches that provide any exploring surfer with plenty to get excited about!
Close by is Praia Guincho, a spectacular long beach with different peaks, perfect for learning and can get big and windy in the afternoon, so morning is always the best bet here.
Ericeira is only 30 minutes drive and is definitely worth a day trip at least, it has dozens of surf beaches to offer including the famous point break Ribeira D'Ilhas and also the relaibale beach break Foz do Lizandro.
Further South is Cascais and Lisbon with an endless supply of different surf beaches for all standards.
