The hours is so beautiful! Very clean with fully equipped kitchen. Haven’t been in a more beautiful surf house in my life. It really felt like home. The owner is very helpful and nice, took care of us like we were his family. We were only two but every morning had breakfast for at least 10 people
4 days with these instructors and I did more progress than during the whole last season when I surfed 4 days every week. The teachers are very encouraging, helped a lot to build confidence and taught us a lot of theory in an easy way so now I can go alone and assess the conditions. They also listen to you and what do you want and feel comfortable, e.g. I could chose if I want to get a longboard or progress with my short boarding. They always chose the best time and spot for our level even if we had to wake up early and drive to Peniche. Truly I had lessons with a lot of teachers and due to my work know so many, but no one I ever met is half as good as these guys
We provide Airport Transfers from and to Lisboa and they can be booked in the booking steps.

This amazing uncrowded coastline between Santa Cruz to Praia da Areia Branca offers many beach breaks and reefs. With beach breaks in each town suitable for learning and many off the beaten track waves along the coastline it is a great place to explore without the concern for large crowds.
Santa Cruz beach break gets good swell and waves are great on small to medium west swells. It can get crowded in the summer months but you only have to walk five minutes to find a peak that is quieter.
Praia da Areia Branca gets consistent surf and can work at any time of the year. Works best in offshore winds and best around low tide when the tide is falling. Even when there are waves, it's not likely to be crowded. Take care of urchins and rocks.
Don't forget to explore the towns of Peniche and Ericeira
