Private Surf Lessons (from 6 y.) at the Praia da Areia Branca

About the Activity

What to Expect

Join us for an adventure with our private surf lessons at the stunning Praia da Area Branca! Our surf lessons, designed for all levels, offer a personalised experience with a maximum of 3 people per session. Located at the beautiful Praia da Area Branca, the course lasts around 2 hours. Depending on the conditions and the level of the students, the lessons can take place at different surf spots nearby to ensure you have the best experience possible. The maximum number of participants is 6 per instructor to ensure progress and safety. The surf school provides all necessary equipment, including surfboards and wetsuits. Our facilities feature clean changing rooms, showers, and a cosy relaxation area to unwind after your session.

The course programme is tailored to your skill level. For beginners, you will learn the basic techniques, such as how to position yourself on the board, how to paddle, sit, and turn. Intermediate surfers will receive an evaluation of their surfing skill to establish the best way to improve. Advanced surfers will focus on catching and riding unbroken waves, practising the classic surfing line, and mastering advanced manoeuvres like tube riding, cut back, off the lip, and floater. Join us and enjoy the thrill of surfing in a supportive and beautiful environment!
