Private surf lessons are the best option if you want fast progression and full attention from your coach.
In this lesson format, your instructor focuses entirely on you: your level, your goals and your learning pace.
In the case of beginning and progressing students, the private surf coach starts by assessing the student’s level, what are their strengths and what are their weaknesses. From this moment on, the trainer draws a training plan 100% adapted to the student’s characteristics, so that each one can evolve within his abilities.
For advanced and independent surfers, the lesson also begins with an individual assessment, but with a stronger focus on technical detail and performance. The goal is to identify what the surfer is already doing well, where there is room for improvement, and how to refine technique more effectively. When relevant, video analysis may also be used to review each wave in detail, helping the student understand mistakes more clearly and progress with greater awareness.
Private lessons are ideal if any of the following applies to you:
We have a fun and professional team so you can have the best experience out there on the ocean.
All our surf instructors are certified by the Portuguese Surfing Federation (FPS) and IPDJ, with proper training in surf coaching and ocean safety, and a lot of experience in the water.

We voelden ons zeer welkom en ontvingen een warme persoonlijke benadering en betrokkenheid, geheel afgestemd per individu en niveauverschil binnen de groep.
