Surf Days

Your Surf Day is shaped around the ocean, the forecast and your goals. You may be looking to catch your first waves, refine your technique, build confidence, improve your positioning, read the ocean more clearly or simply enjoy a meaningful session in the water.

This is not a standard surf lesson. Each Surf Day is built around your level, the conditions and the best available spot, with experienced guidance from the moment we plan the session until you leave the water.

How the day works

A Surf Day includes one focused surf session, planned according to the forecast, your level and your goals. Sessions are usually based in Figueira da Foz and along the surrounding coast, while other locations may be arranged on request.

Before entering the water, we check the conditions, choose the most suitable spot and define a clear focus for the session. Depending on your experience, this may include first steps, confidence in the water, positioning, wave selection, technique, guided surfing or video analysis. A second session can be arranged on request, subject to conditions and availability.

Experience that makes a difference

Your session is led by qualified coaches and experienced surfers whose knowledge comes from a life spent in and around the ocean. The difference is in how each decision is made: where to surf, when to enter the water, what to focus on and how to adapt the session to your level and the conditions.

This is real ocean experience, shared in a practical and personal way to help you progress with confidence.

Who this is for:

  • First-time surfers who want to learn properly and feel safe from the start

  • Beginner and intermediate surfers who want more consistency and a clearer understanding of the ocean

  • Experienced surfers who value local knowledge, technical feedback and a well-chosen session

What to expect:

  • An appropriate surf spot selected according to the forecast and conditions

  • A clear session plan before entering the water

  • Practical coaching adapted throughout the session

  • Technical feedback, guided surfing or video analysis when relevant

  • A focused experience in a private or small-group format

Frequently Asked Questions

Can beginners join a Surf Day?

Yes. Surf Days can be adapted for first-time surfers as well as more experienced surfers looking for coaching, local knowledge and better wave selection.

Do you also work with intermediate and advanced surfers?

Yes. Sessions can focus on technique, positioning, wave choice and local conditions according to your level and goals.

Where do your surf sessions take place?

Surf Days are based around Figueira da Foz and the surrounding coastline. The exact spot is chosen according to the forecast, conditions and your surfing level.

How do you choose the best surf spot?

We read the forecast and ocean conditions before the session and choose the location that makes the most sense for your level and the waves available that day.

Is surf equipment included?

A surfboard and wetsuit can be provided when required, together with coaching, session planning and a safety briefing.

Are Surf Days private?

Private and small-group formats are available. Keeping groups small allows the session to be shaped around the people in the water rather than following a fixed formula.

How long is a surf session?

The exact timing depends on the experience and conditions. The focus is on having a quality session rather than simply staying in the water for a fixed amount of time.

Can I book an additional surf session?

Yes. Additional sessions can be arranged depending on conditions, availability and what you want from the day.

Can I book a multi-day surf experience in Portugal?

Yes. Specific multi-day surf experiences can be arranged, with accommodation, breakfast and dinner included in the agreed package.

What happens if the surf conditions are not right?

We may adjust the timing, location or session plan according to the forecast and real ocean conditions to find the most suitable option.

What makes surfing in Figueira da Foz different?

Figueira da Foz and the surrounding coast offer a variety of surf conditions, allowing us to choose different spots according to swell, wind, tide and your level.

Can the surf session be adapted during the day?

Yes. If conditions change, we can adjust the timing, location or focus of the session to make better use of what the ocean is offering.
