Profit from the ideal wind conditions during our windsurfing lessons at Lagoa de Albufeira in Sesimbra. The protected lagoon about 40 kilometres south of Lisbon is the ideal spot to learn windsurfing or improve your skills. This is why our experienced instructors are happy to welcome (aspiring) windsurfers of all levels from the age of 7 years. Small groups with a maximum of 5 participants ensure course contents adapted to your level and quick progress.
