One of the best hostel experiences I've ever had. The staff made me feel welcome and was able to provide me with information on the Ericeira area.
Hi Roman.
Thank you for your stay and review ;)
We are glad to know that you enjoyed our hostel and the beautiful Ericeira.
See you next time!
Kind Regards.

The lesson was pretty well-organized, the instructors were helpful. The whole experience, however, felt a little overcrowded with too many people in our group
Great Hostel and very family friendly.
Good school and very friendly
We provide Airport Transfers from and to Lisbon airport and they can be booked in the booking steps.
Ribeira d`ilhas
Level: All Levels
One of the most consistent breaks in Europe. When it`s epic, Ribeira D`Ilhas boosts a very long righthander with various playful sections: as fun as it gets! Mostly quite crowded, especially in the summer, but on an average day the wave doesn`t connect over the whole length, breaking the wave into several peaks with plenty of waves
Cave
Level: Advanced
A slab that creates waves for experienced surfers only. The heaviest wave in the Ericiera region.
Coxos
Level: Advanced
The queen of all waves in the Ericeira World Surfing Reserve and one of the most famous righthanders in Europe. Groundswells roll into the small bay and unload on a reef bottom, often with fierce power. The wave changes according to swell direction, period and wind direction, but is always fun.
Praia do Sul and Pescadores
Level: All Levels
A great spot for beginners as the jetty provides shelter from the big sneaker sets. Stunning views of Ericeira fishing port from the surf.
Praia do Matadouro
Level: Intermediate
A versatile bay with several peaks that vary in quality, shape and power. A good option to get used to surfing on reef with little or no dangerous rocks sticking out. When it`s windy it`s one of the only spots in Ericeira suitable for kite – and windsurfers too.
Reef
Level: Intermediate
Waves roll in from deep water and explode with full power on this sharp, shallow reef plateau. Only surf on the smaller days unless you`re a really experienced surfer.
This is where you surf Europe's best coast line and let the fun begin.There are over 12 surf breaks along the Ericeira coast, with different options for all standards. With so much choice you'll feel like a kid in a sweet shop! The area was introduced in the Stormriders Surf Guide to Europe with the heading "Enter the Heartland".
World Surf Reserve
In 2011 it was awarded the title of 'World Surf Reserve', there are only 2 other places in the world that share the title: Santa Cruz, US and Manly, Australia.
If it is your first surfing holiday to Ericeira then head straight to Foz do Lizandro and Sao Juliao beaches south of town, they are perfect beginner and intermediate surf spots. Closer to town is Praia do Sul. Another great beginner beach breaks. All best at mid tide but surfable at high and low tide also.
For Intermediates you have the reliable and safe reef break Ribeira d'Ilhas, which host the WSL World qualifying series surf championships every year. And for the more adventurous you have the world class Coxos. That's just naming a few, there are too many surf breaks to mention here!
Don't forget to explore further up the coast - 25 minutes away is Santa Cruz and an hour away is Peniche, home to the World renowned Supertubos and host of the Rip Curl Pro since 2009. 30 minutes south of Lisbon is the Cascais coast with the famous Praia do Guincho surf beach. And when north winds are blowing you can venture further south towards Carcevelos beach and the other surf spots along the Lisbon coast.
