We make sure that you learn how to surf in a safe and supportive environment. Let our experienced surf coaches take you to the beautiful and unique beaches on Portugal’s Algarve. Here in the South of Portugal, we are blessed with loads of sunshine and surf conditions which are good all year round. We offer surf courses for everyone – you don’t need to stay with us in our surf camp. 

Surf Lessons and Surf Coaching

We’ve been having surf lessons for first-time surfers around Lagos in Portugal since 1995 and even the most landlocked individuals leave the surf courses with a taste for saltwater and a smile on their faces. If you want to learn how to surf without pressure or fear of failure, then join our surf school – safe learning with a focus on FUN! Our surf instructors will teach you the basics in practice and theory. Our coaches are always there to offer advice on the beach and in the water.

To ensure you get to surf waves suited to your ability we implement a surf level system. This helps us pair you with a surf group seeking the same type of waves and coaching experience. We teach beginners, intermediates or advanced surfers of all ages! Our team of professional surf coaches and system of levels sets us apart from other surf camps.

TSE Kids and Family Surf School 

Teaching kids since 1995 – together with our nanny, we make sure that your kids learn this new sport in a thrilling and empathic way. Making sure the whole family will have an amazing experience and lots of fun 

Do you have any questions?

You can arrive as well as join the surf course on any day of the week. If you are a first time guest, the check in time is 8am to 10pm. If you have stayed with us before, you can arrive any time you want.

In general, you and your surf instructors will leave after breakfast and drive to the best beach for the prevailing conditions (waves, wind, etc.). You will receive 3-4 hours of surf coaching plus extra time on the beach, and will be brought back to the camp in the afternoon/ evening.

Sorry, that is not possible. We have a photographer who will have a photographer that will accompany you and take pictures of you whilst you are surfing anyway. So you can concentrate and have fun while the photographer does the picture-taking for you.

On the day after the session, all images can be accessed via ShootProof. We allocate the pictures according to their date so you should be able to easily find your way through them.
