Great surfing experience near the beaches of Lisbon - Miguel, our surf instructor, was a blast. Loved his energy and his knowledge of Portugal and it's history. The surfing lesons were great, he took time for every single surfer and kept encouraging everybody. We also had good luck with weather, it was a sunny day in between rainy ones.

Finally i felt what it is to stand on the board :D - I had the chance to try surf few years ago, and i have miserably failed. But not this time, out of 12 attempts i managed to stand 4. Not bad at all :D And this was thanks to the instructors who were amazing mentoring and guiding you. They try to correct what you are doing wrong in the water but always in a respectful way that you dont feel pressured nor ashamed if you won't be succesfull. Props to the instructors Nuno and Miguel who are very easy to get along with and great fun. Can't say anything about the other schools, but i will book it again with this one
