Surf EQUIPMENT RENTAL & GUIDING

The Surf Camp was formed in 2004 by local surfer Miguel and over the years his surf team have gained an unprecedented knowledge of northern Portugals Green Coast and it's still largely untapped surf potential.

Esmoriz – This is the beach right in front of our Surf Guest House. It’s one of the nicest and longest beaches in the region, offering a wide choice of peaks that can result in excellent waves. The house is located in the middle of this stretch of beach which means there is not much chance of it getting crowded.

The surf camp offers a wide range of surfboards to average ability/experienced surfers who do not want the hassle/expense of travelling with their surfboards.

Surfboards: Epoxy Boards (NSP & BIC), Longboards, Malibus, Minimals, Evolution and Shortboards (Fiberglass and Epoxy).

Wetsuits: Semente & Prolimit 4/3mm suits.
