Great experience - The team were fantastic, the attendees were split into small groups and were given the input needed before heading into the sea for surfing supported at a level appropriate to the learner. This was my first time surfing and I had great fun even if it was a bit rough ("not beginner waves"). The team were careful to select waves appropriate to the skill level of the surfer.

Amazing surf lessons! 🏄‍♀️ - I took some surf lessons with Albufeira Surf & SUP, and I really enjoyed them! The instructors (Anna Lisa and Alex) were amazing, professional, friendly, and full of positive energy. Highly recommended! ☺️🙌🏻

2 hour lesson. - Brilliant lesson yesterday with Rodrigo! My two sons and I (10 & 8 years old) had a 2 hour lesson and Rodrigo had all 3 of us standing up and riding some waves within no time. All 3 of us really enjoyed it and highly recommend.

Amazing - This is a returning visit for me. Had another great session and managed to get up on the board each time. Instructors are supportive. Hoping to have a 1:2:1 session next time

Kids had a blast at their private lesson! - My kids, ages 9 and 12, loved their private lesson! They both have some surfing experience, and the instructor quickly adapted to meet them right at their level. They learned new skills and smiled the whole time!

We recommend this place 100%! - As complete beginners, my husband and I opted for the small group surf lesson to maximize our learning and practice and we're so glad we did! Our instructor was absolutely fantastic: super nice and patient. Despite some challenging conditions (we went during a storm with massive waves!), we had a truly full and memorable experience. A fantastic bonus is that they provide candid pictures at the end, making for hilarious and fun souvenirs to look back on! 😂 We highly recommend this experience if you're looking to learn or for a fun day activity with your partner or friends.

Area to AVOID - Material metal is fine, correct neoprene and oversized soft base boards (8 feet). Monitors are sufficient (1 per 6-8 students approximately). BUT the place is not at all suitable for surfing. There are few waves and no force, no foams and the space allocated to the school (to the same and adjacent schools) is MINIMUM, not a corridor of one meter wide per student. The absolutely collapsed area of people, who constantly get in the way and run over. I won't say it's been a totally wasted two hours. But almost. I will not repeat in this area, either with this school (which is not particularly bad) or with any.
