An experience I’ll always remember! - I never thought I’d be on a surfboard let alone in the water, as I have a massive fear, but our instructor Jony, made me feel very safe and comfortable. I turned up with only the intention to watch my friends from the sand but Jony encouraged me to at least try it on it and I’m so grateful! It was a really fun thing to do with friends and Jony was able to accommodate all of us at all our different levels and comfort zones. Thank you for such a beautiful experience and one I will never forget. (Also, highly recommend going for sunset if you can because it was a dream)

Would do it again! - I highly recommend to take this experience. Jony was really great, very enthusiastic, funny, he made sure that I was ok, calm and most of all Jony made this experience a pleasant one. For someone like me, not a good swimmer I felt very safe and I was able to enjoy from the beginning to the end. Also Jony shared with me a few tips on how to take good pictures using my phone.

Most Amazing Teacher - Honestly one of the most memorable experiences I will have in Portugal! Jony is an incredibly teacher and calming presence to have along on this excursion. If you come into this nervous and afraid, do not worry you are in the best hands. Jony will ensure you are relaxed and having fun the whole way through. I was afraid in the beginning, but about 5 minutes in I was already confident I would do this again! If you're looking for something active to do in Albufeira I highly recommend this excursion with Jony!

On the way to the caves - Awsome experience, with an awsome instructor, puting aside one ,if not my worst fear of being in the SEA, on a small board, I was happy that I did it, at the end was all about a person, that realy care about people and that person was """ JOHN """

Must do in Albufeira - I recommend this to anyone who is in Albufeira for the first time! João was so kind and helpful for my family who was a little nervous. It was gorgeous paddling into the water and going into the caves and seeing the beautiful rocks/hidden beaches. I even got to lay on my board and enjoy the ocean & I tried to stand too even tho I fell. It was my favorite experience so far. Thank you to the whole crew!

Best surfing lessons we could have wished for! - We did five days of surfing lessons at Parte o Côco and we loved it so so much! We could stand on the boards after just a few minutes in the water, thanks to Jony’s excellent teaching. We learnt new things everyday and were really sad when we had to leave after the five days. We can highly recommend Parte o Côco, the most sympathetic surf school you will find!!!
