Learn to surf in Carcavelos with professional instructors, beginner-friendly coaching, gear included, and a flexible two-hour lesson near Lisbon.

“We loved our experience! We are first timers :) A couple of thoughts… Be prepared to carry your surfboard a mile down the boardwalk, just in case, because you go where the waves are. Also keep in mind that the waves are seasonal dependent and you may end up with very small waves but the instructors still work with it. We loved learning with Felipe and Marco- they are very patient and encouraging- and we had so much fun rocking our 6 inch waves! Highly recommend you bring someone else to take pictures and videos!”

“Safety issues - noticed my young kids in the water, alone, while the instructor was helping another instructor with an adult student. This happened more than once and made me very uncomfortable and instead of doing my own lesson with a different instructor ( we specifically asked for a separate instructor for our kids when we booked so the focus is 100% on them) I stayed close to my kids to make sure they were safe.”
