ABOUT US
Raised on these waters, I’v been surfing for more than 30 years and still on it
I like to share my experiences and for me surfing is much more than a sport/hobbie and i think that in a certain way each year i'm getting more into the - introspective/meditative side of surfing
In the past I used to compete a bit and I’m a certified FPS (Portuguese Surfing Federation) coach and all my team/collaborators also are FPS certified and experienced surfers.
I use to paddle out in different boards and stances but my favorite stance is – dropknee!
I founded The Conde surf camp to share the stoke and make you have a good time here in the water and at my loved hometown
And - You can book the entire surf house exclusively for you / your group / your family - PRIVATE SURF CAMP !!!
