Location
Right in the middle of a natural park, our house is surrounded by nature and tranquility. Explore our most exotic beaches, ride some of the best waves on our coast, visit historical villages and the charming cities of Sintra and Cascais - just a short drive away, and try some of our most typical and delicious dishes. This will truly be a nature adventure and a cultural trip experience!
Surf Lodge
Our lodge is a renovated antique house with a living room, kitchen, seven comfortable rooms, a ping-pong table, wifi and an outside area with a couch and hammocks. All we want is that you feel at home, whether you’re eating in the dining room, lounging in the living room, or sunbathing outside. There is plenty to do: trails in Serra de Sintra, bike-ride, surf, kitesurf, try the most traditional Portuguese cuisine with a typical barbecue made in our grill or watch the sunset at Guincho beach, just 5 minutes away!
Surf
The coast of Portugal is well known for its year-round consistency and the Lisbon coastline is no exception! Here we are lucky to be able to check both west and south-facing coasts, therefore we can always find a good match for your level of experience and adjust according to the wind, swells, and surf conditions. Our certified surf instructors adjust the lessons to our students' level of experience in surfing, so that everyone has fun while learning and connecting to the ocean.
Spots
In this region, highlights include great breaks at Guincho, Adraga, São Pedro do Estoril, Carcavelos, and Praia Grande. A bit further from us, Costa da Caparica is also a good option with its nice beach breaks, especially during wintertime. If you are still learning how to surf, then the best time for you to visit us would be between June and September. On the other hand, if you are familiar with surfing, visiting us during April, May, October, and November is a good idea to make the most of the perfect-swell waves. Carcavelos and Caparica are some of the best options during wintertime, but during summer we definitely choose Adraga, Guincho, and west-facing peaks around our surf lodge.
