My dad (62) and I (29) had a blast with our trainer Igor from Pura Vida Surfing last week. We got picked up in central Porto and drove 30 minutes to a beach in Silvade. After a thorough introduction into the safety precautions and our first moves on the board our small group of seven got into the waves. We felt very well taken care of throughout the whole class. Igor and his colleague guided us into the water and spotted the perfect waves for us to get started. After about an hour we both managed to stay on the board and "surf" for a couple of seconds which was so fun. Although it is really exhausting we had such a blast. One of our favourite experiences during our stay in Porto by far - we can wholeheartedly recommend this class :)

Had an amazing time at this surf camp! The instructors checked the conditions every single day to make sure we surfed wherever the waves were best — really showed how much they cared about giving us a great experience. All the surf teachers were fantastic: patient, skilled, and genuinely fun to be around. The vibe throughout the whole camp was great, with a real sense of community among everyone there. Can’t recommend this camp enough — already looking forward to going back!

Very fun activity! The surf instructors are great, always give you tips and you feel like you're in good hands. They also give good restaurant tips :) You can tell that they teach with passion. Not generic or too touristy, which is why you should plan more time than stated on the booking, as the time depends on the waves and the ability of the participants.
