Equipment

We provide all the surfing equipment: comfortable wetsuits and boards for all levels. Beginners use soft and stable boards, while experienced surfers opt for high-performance rigid boards. Just bring your favorite swimsuit to wear under your wetsuit.
Clothing to bring
For your comfort and time out of the water:
- Swimwear: Please bring at least two swimsuits. You will need them for going to the beach, relaxing near the accommodation (if applicable), and potentially to wear under your regular clothes after surfing.
- Layering is Essential: The weather in Peniche between April and October can vary. While you can expect plenty of sunshine, evenings and early mornings, especially during the shoulder months (April, May, September, October), can be cooler due to the sea breeze. We recommend packing layers.
- T-shirts and short-sleeved tops for warmer days.
- Long-sleeved tops or a light sweater/fleece for cooler evenings.
- A lightweight jacket, preferably water-resistant, for possible light showers or wind. This will be particularly useful during the shoulder months.
- Bottoms: Pack shorts, comfortable trousers, or jeans for exploring and relaxing. The mix will depend on your preferences and the time of year you visit.
- Footwear: Flip-flops or sandals are perfect for the beach and around the guesthouse.
- Comfortable walking shoes are recommended if you plan to explore the city or surrounding area.
- Beach towel: Please bring your own beach towel to dry off after swimming or showering and to relax on the sand.
General Essentials for Peniche:
- Sunscreen: Absolutely essential throughout the season! The Portuguese sun can be strong, especially near the water.
- Sunglasses: To protect your eyes from the sun.
- Hat: A sun hat will offer you extra protection during the day.
- Casual clothing: Comfortable clothes for relaxing at the guesthouse.
In summary, focus on comfortable beachwear, versatile layers to adapt to temperature changes, a beach towel, and sun protection.
