Itinerary
In this activity, you will be able to enjoy and participate in a surf lesson!! Surf and bodyboard, are water sports very typical of this area, due to the almost perfect conditions that we have the whole year to practice it. During the summer seasons, lessons will take place at Bordeira Beach, one of the most beautiful and breathtaking beaches in this side of the West Coast, with kilometres of dunes and plenty of space in the water for our surf practice. We have lessons for different levels, so please, let us know when booking your level or experience and we will adapt the lesson for your needs. Surf is a really complete sport, perfect exercise for you body and mind, while being in the water and enjoying the beach at the same time. Perfect time and the perfect activity during your holidays! Lesson times might be adjusted for your comfort depending specially on tides and swell

Excellent patient helpful friendly tuition
Introductory surfing lesson suitable for beginners. The location is beautiful and the weather was very favorable (good waves, in our opinion, but not excessive). Good and stimulating instructors. We felt that perhaps the equipment was a bit minimal, perhaps distributing the surfboards based on height could be an idea. The path to reach the beach on foot with the boards in hand was a bit tiring.
We booked 5-Days of Surfing Lessons with the excellent and cool Surfing Teacher Guy. It was really amazing and so much fun, we also got to know many other nice surfing students. The groups were relatively small, and Guy spent a lot of time on each person, helping us riding the waves. The beach where the lessons took place is beautiful, not too crowded and the waves are very good for surfers - surfing was possible all of the 5 days in a row. Thanks again and see you next year!
My friend and I signed up for a surf lesson with Guy and it was one of the best lessons I've ever had! Guy explained the basics in a way that I've never been taught, and he made it super fun. He was also kind enough to pick us up when we went to the wrong place 😂 Thanks so much Guy, hope to see you again!
I really recommend the surf class with Guy! If you do exactly what he says you will get it and will go home with a big smile on your face :) Most people in the class were first timers and they all did great, standing up on their first surf class :D I had other surf experiences and this was for sure the best! Thanks Guy!
Thanks for superior and unforgettable surflessons. Very dedicated teaching and commitment from the proff teacher. He has a sympathetic and pedagogical way of teaching the surf, always making sure that no one is left behind. Phenomenal way of meeting you at the stage you are at. I was on the board already standing from the first day thanks to the teacher. The whole Carrapateira Extreme company is friendly and sympathetic, making great adventures and experiences for life. 🏄♀️🌊🐚
We had a fantastic experience and Guy made the lesson super enjoyable and gave us lots of good advices, even if we were going to have only one lesson, we could see how the progression would be. He was very patient and made sure we had a smile in the face. We are planning to come back and definitely get into surf more. If you are in the area, contact him!
Hugely enjoyed and super friendly people. Even including help when our Mercedes Vito got stuck in the sand
We had booked a 5-day surf course but the conditions allowed us to go on the water only 3 days. Nelson from “Carrapateira extreme tour” was very responsive to keep us informed of the day-to-day conditions, he took no risks to insure the lessons at any cost and reimbursed us for the 2 lessons we could not take. We very much enjoyed the 3 sessions carried out. Louis, our teacher, gave everything to make us progress. But surfing is not easy! Especially at 50 years old. Thank you to the whole team for this week out of time, in breathtaking landscapes! We definitely recommend!
Great surf instructor with a good feel for them group and a focus on the important points to make progress. Nice group and great conditions on the beach
We have booked for two people to learn to surf. Initially we went at 15:00, but the Owner sent us a message that it would be better at 13:00 because of the wind and water:) this made us feel good immediately! Once we arrived we got a good wetsuit and followed Tiago, the teacher with our vehicle to the place where we had to park. Afterwards a short walk along a path and the beach to the sea, which is a good warm-up! Tiago gave us a quiet, perfect explanation about surfing. The lesson went uphill, so we could stand up on our surfboard at the end! Big thank you to Tiago and the others! See you again in a couple of years! :D
Fantastic experience with Master Thiago! Very good at explaining with great patience and passion for what he does! Beautiful beach and top lesson!
The waves were beautiful for beginners. The explanation clear and the place very very nice. The group size was eight people, so there was enough attention for everyone.
Super Surflehrer, hat sehr viel Spaß gemacht und hat alles gut erklärt und vorgezeigt. Sehr zu empfehlen.
top surf lessons, perfect instructor, attentive and friendly we leave with a smile and will come back with great pleasure
Thank you for all the sympathy, professionalism, charisma, commitment and dedication of the team. I loved the experience, fulfilled the goal of someone who had never been on a board and finished the class standing, thanks to the excellent instructor and teacher I had the opportunity to meet. It will be something not to forget and undoubtedly to repeat! Ana Fernandes
