Quick overview:

Free Surf Camp offered a laid-back, budget-friendly vibe that made it easy for beginners to feel comfortable. The atmosphere was casual and welcoming, centered around learning and fun.

Guests loved Nino, the host and surf guide, who provided great instruction tailored to beginners. The camp was affordable and the surf conditions were ideal for those just starting out.

While it was perfect for beginner surfers looking for a friendly and affordable experience, the camp is now permanently closed. It's uncertain if it has moved to a new location, so booking is no longer possible.

What's Included

They offer surf classes for beginners, intermediates, and advanced surfers, certified by the Portuguese Surf Federation and Tourism of Portugal. If you're more independent, you can book a surf guide tailored for intermediate and advanced surfers to explore the area.

Accommodation

Stay in a cozy Portuguese house in São Bernardino with a chill vibe. It has a living room, barbecue, terrace, and a lookout tower with panoramic views of the surf. You can pick from suite rooms, family rooms, or dorms.
