    Peniche

    7 nights

    Getting there: Transfer from Lisbon airport (about 1h15)

    Base in Peniche. The peninsula's beaches face different directions, which helps to find good waves and wind almost every day, from Baleal to Supertubos.

    1. Day 1 · Arrival in Peniche

      Transfer from Lisbon, check-in and a drive around the peninsula to get to know the beaches.

    2. Day 2 · Baleal

      First session at Baleal, a sheltered bay, good for warming up and assessing everyone's level.

    3. Day 3 · Reading the ocean

      Surf wherever conditions are best and, in the afternoon, a talk on forecasting: how to read swell, wind and tide.

    4. Day 4 · Surf and Óbidos

      Morning session and an afternoon in the medieval town of Óbidos, about 20 minutes away.

    5. Day 5 · Supertubos

      A day to surf or watch Supertubos, depending on each person's level and the size of the swell.

    6. Day 6 · Nazaré (optional)

      If a big swell arrives, a trip to Nazaré to watch the waves at Praia do Norte, about 45 minutes away. If not, another day of surfing in Peniche.

    7. Day 7 · Last session

      Last surf of the week and a late afternoon at Cabo Carvoeiro, with the cliffs and the view of the Berlengas islands.

    8. Day 8 · Departure

      Check-out and transfer to Lisbon airport.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need to know how to surf?

No. Peniche has good beaches for beginners and for experienced surfers. Sessions are adjusted to each person's level.

What is the water like in October?

The Atlantic in Portugal is cool all year round. In October a 4/3 or 3/2 wetsuit is usually enough, and it is included.

Is Supertubos for everyone?

No. It is a fast, powerful wave. For most people Baleal and the nearby beaches work better; Supertubos is on the plan for those with the level, or to watch.

How much does it cost?

Pricing is on request: we put together the proposal based on dates, accommodation and group size.
