Great for beginners. You get 1.5hrs in the water which is more than enough time. Pick up from downtown Porto is great as well.
We enjoyed do
Much. It is my second time here. Great fun. Great guide. We learn how to surf. We can do it by our self
This was so much fun!! My boyfriend and I have surfed before, but are by no means "surfers" and our two instructors couldn't have been better! The waves were small on the day we went, but we probably each caught 15-20 waves over the course of two hours. I was also worried about being cold in May, and the wetsuits they provide are extremely warm and durable. Highly recommend!
João was an amazing instructor. Not only was he funny and informative but he helped me and my friend learn to surf within the first 30 minutes with no past experience what so ever. I really can’t recommend this enough. Thank you guys!
Transfers were easy. The shop is walking distance to the beach. Wetsuits and boards are provided. You can leave gear at the shop. Coaching was excellent. Beach break, nice waves and not overly crowded on Monday in October.
Great weather. Great instructor. Just two hours of fun - surf's up 🏄♂️
We were five guys and paired with two Auzzies.
My partner and I had such a great time! The instructor was patient and very informative. It was my first time surfing, and I got a good surfer stance with the board on the water just after a few tries. I would recommend it!
We had a very good instructor. He taught us the basics very well, so we felt we were able to surf after only a few hours. He also took some nice pictures!
Alvaro is a super instructor. Positive and encouraging.
Thank you so much, our son had 'the best 3 hours' of his life!
I had a great time! The instructors were great and the others on the group as well. Don’t forget to wear your shoes or sandals because you have a short walk through city streets to get to the beach.
AmaZing experience with great instructors who made me feel confident and safe in surfing for the first time. Well organised and a really enjoyable experience. Thank you!
Really nice training session with competent trainers, good equipment and a lovely beach. We had a lot of fun!
This was such a fun experience that I ended up booking another day! The instructors were really nice and helpful, giving you boosts to get up the first few times, and then additional pointers to help you do it yourself. If you have some time in Porto/Matosinhos and want to learn to surf/get better, I highly recommend this experience!
As a beginner, was able to learn the foundations of surfing from fantastic instructors. High energy and enthusiam for teaching and sharing their knowledge. Ended up booking a few more days because it was so great. Would highly recommend!

L’expérience ne peut que bien se passer avec une telle équipe !
Le transport et l’équipement sont compris, on se sent bien encadré même pour une première leçon. C’était l’une de mes premières expériences en surf et le coach (Alvaro) est resté avec moi dans l’eau, me conseillant et me corrigeant avec beaucoup de patience après chaque vague. L’expertise de l’équipe est apaisante et motivante.
La preuve la plus fiable que l’expérience était géniale : je m’apprête à réserver une semaine entière pour renouveler cela dès le printemps.
