First Time Surfing - Made It So Enjoyable - Thank You! - Great experience. I came with my daughter - 13 y/o. Neither of us had surfed before. I was a bit apprehensive before hand in case it was too difficult or I felt out of my depth with this conventionally cool pass time. I need not have worried. All the instructors were really warm and friendly and everything is pitched appropriately for your level and how quick you pick things up. There is no pressure or expectation beyond helping you and a genuine desire by the team to ensure you have a great time and develop as far as you can in the time you have.
My daughter took a couple of minor bumps from her board (which I understand is quite rare) and Jess (our instructor) was patient and caring and also had a well stocked first aid kit on hand which was reassuring. Again there was no pressure to get back in to the water until my daughter was ready which meant she bounded back and enjoyed the rest of the session.
Our only regret is that we had only allocated 1 day for a bit of a taster. If we could have added another 2 or 3 days worth of lessons to really get the hang of it that would have been perfect.
All the arrangements, disclaimers, meeting point, transportation and equipment was all well organised.
If you are looking for surf lessons in the Sagres area, look no further - I would definitely recommend this company.

Great first surfing experience - We took a group lesson in the morning. Everything was well organized and the instructors were very nice. They provided clear instructions and divided the attention among the group in a proper way. We really enjoyed it and were able to stand on the waves after one lesson with no prior experience. Would definitely recommend this surfing school

Great instructors - These lessons had really good instructors that coached throughout the lesson, picking up on the little details that weren’t going well. Despite the windy weather they had us in an area that surfers with different skill levels could learn and practice.

Perfect for the little ones, too! 🏄♂️ - We recently had a wonderful surfing experience with Wavesensations in Sagres. The instructor had our kids, 7 and 10 years old, riding the waves in no time. Despite some initial hiccups with the lesson duration, the management was very responsive and fair in resolving our concerns. Their commitment to customer satisfaction and a fantastic coaching team made our family outing memorable. Highly recommend for families looking to catch some waves!

Great surf classes in Sagres - I had a great time surfing with Wavesensations for 3 days. I’ve surfed before but still got very valuable input from the coaches like Jessica and Thiago. Everybody was super nice and I had a lot of fun! They took us to different beaches depending on the day’s conditions.
Would recommend!!
