90F in the summer.
Located on the heart of west coast in Portugal, our surf camp situated
in one of the most beautiful and consistent surf spots in Europe.
Situated in Lourinha, Praia da Areia Branca just 5 minutes from Peniche
and 25 minutes from Ericeira! Lourinha is a small beach village that
still holds its natural beauty and has not changed much in 200 years.
One of the best things is the location right in the middle of a
selection of the best waves in Europe including Supertubos, Lagido,
Baleal and Coxos! This coast is certainly one of the most consistent in
Europe. Due to its geographical position, every day you can find surf
with offshore wind.
Surfing:
Solid surf is often found with offshore morning breezes extremely
common, making it a popular surfing destination for surfers from inside
and outside Europe. Portugal has a huge variety of waves and swell size
and as a result makes an ideal surfing location for surfers of every
ability and offers sandy beach breaks, point breaks and the odd rock
reef too.
Situated west of Spain, Portugal picks up north, west and southerly
swells, making surf conditions very consistent. During winter the swell
size is around the 6ft to 10ft mark, making it a spot for those looking
for challenging surf. In the summer months you can expect waves of 3-6ft
in wonderful hot conditions. This destination has been an extremely
popular choice with our surf customers as it is very similar to surfing
found in southern California and delivers a decent sized surf peak with
water temperatures from 60F to low 70F.
Accommodation:
You will be staying in a large traditional surf camp house with other
surfers and a direct view of the ocean just 50m from the beach, where
restaurants, bars and cafes are the hive of entertainment. The house has
all the comforts that you will need a living-room (TV, DVD, surf
movies, music) and a nice kitchen. Outside you can enjoy a barbecue and a
chill out area here you can view the ocean to relax.
