Morning Waves and Coastal Adventures

As the sun peeks over the horizon, Almada awakens to the gentle whispers of the Atlantic. This Father’s Day weekend, the weather is set to be a surfer’s dream, with partly cloudy skies and a comfortable temperature that invites you to ride the waves. Start your day with the Caparica Surf Experience, where the Atlantic Ocean offers a playground for both beginners and seasoned surfers. With sessions available from 9:00 AM to 11:00 AM, you can catch the morning swell and feel the rush of the ocean beneath your board.

The Costa da Caparica is renowned for its consistent surf and stunning natural beauty. The fossil cliffs provide a dramatic backdrop as you carve through the waves. The surf school here is legendary, with instructors who are as passionate about teaching as they are about surfing. One recent review captures the essence of the experience:

Time of my life - What an amazing experience! The school was incredible, and the people there? Absolute legends. The instructor was the heart and soul of it all—kind, encouraging, and with a passion for surfing that’s downright contagious. I’m not sure if I learned to surf or if I just spent hours laughing and having the time of my life. 10/10 would wipe out on the waves with them again! 🏄‍♂️🌊

With the wind gusts reaching up to 32.9 mph, the conditions are perfect for a thrilling ride. Don’t forget your sunscreen, as the UV index is high, ensuring you stay protected while you enjoy the sun-soaked adventure.

After a morning of surfing, take a leisurely drive to Lisbon for an exclusive tour that captures the essence of this vibrant city.
