In a few words
More than just a surf trip, this retreat is a complete immersion in the Peniche surfer lifestyle. Designed for both complete beginners and surfers looking to perfect their technique, this experience combines daily surf coaching, outdoor activities, local cuisine, and good vibes in one of Europe's best surf destinations.
Surf lessons are tailored to the day's conditions and organized in small groups with certified instructors to guarantee safe progression, personalized feedback, and real improvement session after session. Whether it's your very first time on a board or you're already surfing unbroken waves (green waves), our coaches will adapt the experience to your level and goals.
Beyond surfing, the retreat also includes activities designed to enjoy the region and create unforgettable moments together: welcome dinner, pizza night, barbecue night, surfskate lessons, stand-up paddleboarding in the beautiful Óbidos lagoon and electric bike excursion along the coastline.
You will stay in a cozy house surrounded by the ocean on the island of Baleal, with a homemade breakfast waiting for you each morning.
A week designed to surf, explore, disconnect from routine and fully experience the marine lifestyle.
