Great experience.
I had a great experience and Filipe was a great instructor. Everyone in our group was able to get up and ride a wave by the end of the experience. Highly recommend!

Not to be missed!
An experience to absolutely do to enjoy the Lisbon ocean to the fullest. September is a recommended month to do this activity. Team of prepared, professional, friendly, and helpful instructors. If you like sports, two hours are enough for you to fall in love with surfing!

Great experience!
Great experience! We were all complete beginners, including one child, and the instructors made us feel comfortable and confident from the start. Friendly and professional staff, clear instructions, and a fun surf lesson. Highly recommended!

Amazing experience
Overall had a great surf lesson! The basics were explained to ensure we knew what to do. The valuables and clothes were locked up so we didn’t have to worry. The waves and beach were beautiful and all the instructors were super nice, helpful, and informative. I would totally book this trip again!

Good value group surf lesson with very friendly staff
Pros - friendly and knowledgeable teachers, plenty of time in the water, good teacher to student ratio (about 1 for every 4-5 of us), started from the basics and built up, wetsuits and boards supplied, good price, valuables were kept securely while we learnt Cons - given the group size it could be a bit crowded in the water, one of the tutors didn't give much feedback on technique (although the others were fantastic)
