Details

If you are looking for some good waves to ride close to Porto, join our surf lessons in Vila Nova de Gaia. Our team of professional instructors is ready to show you plenty of different surf spots in the area and will make you live the experience of a lifetime.

We offer lessons for both adults and children from the age of 8 years old. Our classes are designed for beginner, intermediate and advanced surfers; we will choose the beach depending on your level and the tides. We want you to make the most of your surf lesson, for this reason, the maximum number of participants in our group lessons is 6 people per instructor.


Meeting & Preparation
Since our meeting point depends on the beach we will be surfing on, we will contact you to let you know the exact meeting place before your lesson. If you are staying in Porto, we offer a free transfer service to come and pick you up before your lesson and then bring you back from the beach. On the day of your surf class, you will meet your instructor and receive the equipment, which will be based on your age and your experience. You can get changed and store your personal belongings in our van.
Start time
The start time depends on the tides to ensure the best conditions, so please plan some extra time on the day of your surf lessons. The exact start times are available in advance. We will inform you in time after you have completed the booking.

The activity itself is already really fun (even for beginners), but the instructors are also funny, which creates a real good atmosphere. Safety rules are well explained, groups are small enough for instructors to help you all out, and the included ride is a real bonus. Another big thank you to the instructors (Bernardo and Jorge) for their jokes, good humor and kindness!

Super accommodating when it comes to the pick-up, you feel taken care of immediately and the surf instructors were very good. We had a lot of fun and learned a lot in the 5 days!
