Details
Our surf lessons on the Costa Vicentina with pick-up in Lagos allow you to learn how to surf in the Algarve with the perfect conditions. As local experts, we know exactly where to find the best waves along the west coast and always take you to a spot that suits your needs, no matter whether you are a surfing beginner or an experienced surfer.
In order to ensure high-quality teaching, our groups are limited to a maximum 8 participants and are always supervised by two instructors certified by the Portuguese Surfing Federation (FPS). With our surf lessons, adults as well as kids from the age of 6 will have a great day at one of the most beautiful beaches of the Algarve and improve their surfing skills in a relaxed atmosphere. Don't hesitate, the perfect waves are waiting for you!
Meeting & Preparation
We pick you up at a suitable spot near or in Lagos, Caroveiro and Portimao, which we will arrange individually after you completed your booking. Once we picked up all participants, we drive to the beach with the best conditions on the day. The drive there usually takes about one hour. Once we arrive, you receive your equipment, get changed and store your valuables in our car before we get started with the surfing lessons.

Duarte, the instructor, has a very technical approach and is detail-oriented. He helps me identify my bad habit in the pop-up.

Duarte is a true professional and manages to convey his passion and knowledge during his classes. My partner and I were beginners, and the experience has encouraged us to continue learning the sport. Highly recommended, absolutely worth it.

Having already experienced five surf instructors, I can say with confidence: Duarte is definitely one of the better ones.
He takes his role as a teacher very seriously and places great emphasis on conveying technique in an understandable and precise manner. He explains not only the how, but also the why – in a way that you can really understand and implement.
The organization of surfing was also top-notch: Picking up went really well, and communication via WhatsApp was uncomplicated and reliable. If there were any delays, we were informed in a timely manner – that was very pleasant.
We surfed for three days, and it was no problem at all to take a break after the second day – that was also very flexible and relaxed.
I give his technical instruction a perfect A (I)! If you're genuinely interested in learning to surf "cleanly," he's the right person for you.
