In a few words

Experience a week of intensive training in Peniche, in the heart of autumn, a particularly favorable time for surfing on the Portuguese coast. With its diverse beaches and orientations, the peninsula offers numerous opportunities to adapt sessions to the conditions and work on your progression in a variety of waves.


This training camp is for surfers who want to progress quickly through structured, demanding, and personalized coaching. For five days, you'll enjoy two surf sessions daily, planned for the best time of day according to the tide and conditions. Technique, positioning, reading the ocean, timing, and maneuvers: each session is focused on progression.


Video analysis allows you to precisely identify your areas for improvement and better understand your movements in the water. A surf skate session strengthens coordination, trajectories, and fluidity, while a half-day at the spa with access to the training room, pool, sauna, and Turkish bath promotes physical recovery.


Groups are limited to 8 participants to ensure individualized coaching and targeted training focused on your goals. Between training sessions, enjoy Peniche and its environment entirely dedicated to the ocean and surfing.

The highlights

  • Improve your surfing skills in Peniche with 5 days of intensive surf coaching
  • Video analysis after each session for fast and efficient progress
  • Half-day at the spa for optimal recovery between workouts

Christophe has been surfing for 45 years and teaching for 30. He opened one of the very first surf schools on the Moroccan coast in 1996, and has been welcoming groups in Peniche since 2007. He speaks French, English and Portuguese, which allows him to teach participants from all backgrounds without missing a single technical detail along the way.

Ruben is from Peniche. He grew up here, he surfs here, and he knows these waves like the back of his hand. What sets him apart is his ability to adapt to any level—whether you're a complete beginner or a surfer with a few sessions under your belt, he'll find a way to help you improve. And his passion for surfing is evident from the very first session.

Our surf house is located in the charming village of Ferrel, just minutes from the rugged coastline and about a 10-minute walk from Almagreira beach. The village center is a 5-minute walk away and offers all the necessary amenities: shops, cafes, bars, a pharmacy, and a bank. To enjoy evenings by the sea, beach bars are a 5-minute drive or taxi ride away, or a 25-30 minute walk.

The stay ends at the surf house. For the return trip, several options are available depending on your mode of transport.

By bus or taxi/private hire vehicle: The return journey to Lisbon Airport is organized in the same way as the outbound journey. From Peniche bus station, regular buses run to Lisbon bus stations, from where you can reach the airport by metro or taxi. You can also take a taxi or private hire vehicle directly from the surf house to the airport.

By car: If you've traveled by car, take the opportunity to explore the region before heading back to Lisbon. The West Coast is full of places worth visiting:

  1. Óbidos — a breathtaking fortified medieval village, just 30 minutes from Peniche. Allow at least an hour or two to wander through the narrow streets and along the ramparts.
  2. Nazaré — a must-see for surf enthusiasts. This fishing village has become world-famous for its giant waves. Even out of season, the view from the viewpoint is well worth the stop.

Both fit easily into the route back to Lisbon without much detour.
