It was such an amazing experience even for the very first beginners. The teacher has very humane attitude and is willing to help anyone. I wish him and his school to thrive and accomplish all goals, he is genuinely a nice person with great heart at the right place. I wouldn’t personally go for anyone else. It was my first surfing experience and I couldn’t be more happier choosing him as my tutor.

It was a great Surf Session. Armando is a local surfguide, super nice and helpful. I really enjoyed it. We got a pastel de nata in the morning and a beer afterwards. Best was to start and to end the Surf session 😍 He is checking the wave forecast and will pick the best beach to go. We have been to a really nice one. I can definitly recommend to Surf with him 😊
This experience was amazing! Armando was patient, informative and an all around great instructor! Although I am a beginner I feel like I have gained the confidence to get back out there simply from what I have learned during this activity. It was super fun and I would recommend to anyone. 10 out of 10 experience!
This was a great experience for people new to surfing, Armando was right on time, very personable and very pleasant. He was a good instructor. We had a blast!
It was my first time surfing and Armando made it a great experience! He is a very good teacher and makes it easy to learn. He shares stories and tips about Porto along the way. Love is van!
Armando is really relaxed and passionate about teaching surfing. We had a nice talk about Porto while driving to the beach, which had perfect waves. Communication, pickup, and the lesson were 11/10.
I had a really great time, Armando is a guide, a photographer and a great surf teacher. I really like the fact that we were a small group, he can really focus on what you need to improve and you catch more waves! 🌊 This is the good place to be if you want to have the reel surf vibes 🤙🏻
Great experience with Armando, very patient with beginner surfers. He even gave us some Porto history along the way.
Armando was an exceptional surf instructor and friendly guide, making my private lesson so fun. I was lucky to have him show me the best local spots to eat, making the experience unforgettable.
Absolutely wonderful experience, I highly recommend!! Armando was a fantastic instructor, I had never surfed before and he helped break everything down in a way that was easy to understand and I was able to stand up on my first day. The overall experience was so wonderful and if I'm back in Porto I'll definitely be booking again :)
A friend and I booked this experience and it ended up being a private lesson with just us. Our instructor picked us up from the centre of the city (a really easy location to find) and drove us to the beach. It ended being super empty and the waves were perfect for us as beginners. He was so helpful, kind and knowledgeable, bringing us a pastry from his favourite bakery. Both my friend and I were able to stand up during our first ever surfing experience! Total experience was over 3 hours with the pre and in water portion lasting around an hour and half. I’d highly recommend if you’re looking for a surfing experience. And finally, thank you so much to our instructor!
We had an absolutely fantastic time learning to surf on this day trip. Our guide took us to a local beach that was beautiful and nearly empty! The waves were calm but strong enough to get a good ride. The equipment was super nice and the wet suits seemed really high quality. It was our first time trying to surf and we were both able to get up. All in all, great instruction, a really nice and helpful guide, and we had an absolute blast. I highly recommend this tour and if I were here longer I’d book it again.
Armando was very informative and a great instructor! For our first time surfing my friend and I felt safe, and we had a great time!
The best experience even if there was no surfing. The drive and conversation made it worth it. Surfing was incredible and Armando was an incredible teacher.
The surfing class was great. We had a lovely time and our instructor even brought us pasteis de nata from his favorite bakery!
Perfect for beginners to learn to Surf i had an amazing experience and ot of fun, teach very well. comunication and Meeting point on time 10/10 Very gratefull to do the training with Armando.
Edwardo the instructor was very calm and methodological in teaching terms. As a person he was very friendly and informative about surfing and the local areas of Porto. I would highly recommend his services to anyone considering learning to surf.
Truly amazing experience!! I’ve booked a lesson for me and my girlfriend and it was incredible! Armando is an excellent teacher, always attentive to detail and giving tips to improve, he’s also an excellent “guide” as he’s native from Porto and knows the city as no one else, he will recomend you excellent restaurants and experiences for you to get to know the city the best way possible. Totally recomend, you’ll not regret! Thank you!
I had a really enjoyable experience. Armando is a kind and professional teacher. Surfing is so easy if you do what he says. Obrigada😄😄 호스텔에서 연결해줘서 갔는데 나이스하고 귀여운 강사님이였어요 덕분에 처음으로 보드위에 일어서기 성공했습니다 추천!
It’s a great surfshcool! Armando is super professional and always looking forward to provide a really fun but safe experience! had a great time learning how to surf and going to a local beach. I’ll recommend to everyone :)
I loved taking the class. Armando is an unbelievable person. In addition to being an excellent surfer, he managed to share the best spots in Porto, Matosinhos and Espinho (that sandwich after the lesson in Espinho was the best part of the vacation). I think everyone should take classes with him. obrigado! eheheh
Mein Freund und ich hatten das Glück, nur zu zweit am Surfkurs des Porto Surfclub teilzunehmen, wodurch unser Surflehrer Armando sich richtig viel Zeit für uns nehmen konnte. Seine Tipps waren sehr hilfreich und er ist individuell auf unsere Bedürfnisse eingegangen. Er konnte mit Leichtigkeit den Spirit und Vibe des Surfens vermitteln und es hat super viel Spaß gemacht. Mein Freund war vorher noch nie surfen und konnte es am Ende nach nur einem Tag, richtig nice :) Auch die Gespräche im Van waren super angenehm und wir konnten noch einiges über die Stadt lernen. Hätten wir mehr Zeit in Porto gehabt, hätten wir nochmal einen Kurs gebucht. Absolut zu empfehlen :)
