The accommodation overall was great. The town is very relaxed, there are a few good restaurants with nice food and the Beach is cozy and clean.
Yeah the surf lessons were top notch, good instructions and feedback. All the beaches they took us to were pretty neat.
Beautiful endless clean beaches of white sand, only few people there. Several surfspots in the vicinity with different waves at the same time so you can decide where to go. Clean rooms, friendly staff, peaceful and relaxed atmosphere in the camp. The food in the village cheap and tasty, we liked restaurant /pizzeria "Malibu". Very windy on the beach! With the right clothes enjoyable nevertheless! :)
We were in June there, small group (2-4 students :)), different spots with different waves, Rui checkes them all every morning so the group goes to the best one considering the weather and the level of the students. My son has learned and enjoyed a lot!
We provide Airport Transfers from and to Porto airport ( OPO) and they can be booked in the booking steps.

The best time to surf Porto is between Spring through to Autumn. It's main surf beach is Matosinhos beach, the best surf spot in Porto for beginner and intermediates. Its a long 1km sandy beach with a few different points on it. The set up is a mix of beach break and reef break and parts of it are sheltered so it handles larger swell. Easy to get to and consistent.
Next to Matosinhos is International Beach. A lovely spot that begins where the city park ends. Its also a great learner spot, and a great place to hang out both during day and at night. Further north is Leca, a very consistent beach break protected by the harbour.
In and around the city there are small little beaches all worth exploring, particularly for the more advanced surfers wanting to discover the best Porto surf breaks.
There are more surf breaks further south including Barra do Porto and Miramar and then 20km south of Porto are the towns of Esphino and Esmoriz. Its arguably the North's most famous surf area and the beaches have a real nice surf culture. The area's 3 main beaches are Silvade, beach, Blue beach and Baia beach. A mix of sandy beach breaks and reef spots that suit beginner and advanced. Hang around and score some long barreling right & left handers all to yourself.
