Lisbon pickup and a 2-hour beginner surf lesson, with pro coaching at Carcavelos or Caparica, gear included, small groups, great value.

“It was overall a nice experience. It was good that the transportation to the beach and back included to the price. It would have been nice if there would have been photoshoot by Surfing company or instructors or professional photographer who would have taken photos from all the group and from each of us with a surf board individually. Surfing is so unique experince that the photos are very important. We had to take the photos by ourselves.”

He was also really nice and considerate. The conditions and surfing weren't easy but with the help of the coaches, we all got a couple of nice efforts, standing upright on the board. A lot of fun!”
