Location
Peniche, Portugal – The Surf Capital of Europe
Peniche is a small peninsula on Portugal’s wild Atlantic coast – a place where the ocean is always close, the wind always salty, and the waves never stop rolling in. Once a humble fishing village, Peniche has become one of Europe’s most iconic surf destinations, attracting surfers from all over the world.
The coastline around Peniche offers something for everyone: from mellow beach breaks for beginners to powerful reef and point breaks for the pros. The crown jewel is Supertubos, a world-class beach break famous for its heavy, barreling waves – home of the WSL Championship Tour. Just a few minutes north lies Baleal, a surf village and peninsula with sandy coves, consistent waves, and a relaxed, friendly vibe.
Beyond surfing, Peniche is pure Atlantic Portugal: dramatic cliffs, lighthouses, and the island fortress of Berlengas, a UNESCO Biosphere Reserve just a short boat trip away. The old town still carries the spirit of a fishing community, with cozy seafood restaurants, local markets, and sunset bars overlooking the ocean.
Peniche is also perfectly located for exploring the Portuguese coast – Nazaré, Ericeira, and Lisbon are all within easy reach. Whether you come for a surf trip, a camp, or just to breathe in the Atlantic freedom, Peniche delivers the real thing: surf, sun, salt, and soul.

PROGRAM
The surfcamp program is oriented according to the surf lessons – their time depends on the current conditions and tides. Outside of the program you will still have plenty of free time to relax or go on excursions. We will prepare an orientation program for you. The first and last day is for arrival and departure only.
Surf lessons always start the morning after arrival. The package includes a total of 5 surf days and one free day for relaxation and a trip to see the surrounding beauty. Usually you surf the first 3 days, followed by one day off and then 2 more days of surfing. It all depends on the current conditions and weather, so the order can change. In the morning after breakfast we will take you to the beach and then back to your accommodation after the lessons or freesurfing.
Afternoons are free for excursions to the surrounding beauty, beach walks or for tasting local specialties. We provide you with a TRAVEL GUIDE – a list of highlights of what to see, where to have the best pastel de nata or where to go for dinner.
