Surf Camp Algarve

The Surf Camp

Tucked inside a nature reserve in the heart of the Algarve, our Surf Camp is the kind of place where you fall asleep to crickets and wake up to birdsong, with the Atlantic just minutes away in either direction.

The camp sits in Raposeira, southern Portugal, perfectly positioned between the south and west coasts — a 5-minute drive to one, 10 minutes to the other — so there's always a wave to match your level, whatever the swell is doing.

Run by a local surfer with decades of knowledge of the entire coastline, this is a proper cozy camping-meets-surf-camp atmosphere, with a pool, garden, BBQ area and bar right at the heart of it.

Our Algarve package is built around a daily breakfast, three yoga sessions a week, and full use of the camp’s own mini ramp, beach volleyball court and outdoor gym. Choose from renovated double and multi-bed rooms in the main house, brand-new bungalows and a New House with its own terrace views, or the budget-friendly Sheddies if you’re after a cozy wooden cabin at the best price. With nearly 300 days of sunshine a year and empty beaches through the off-season, this is a surf trip that works whenever you can get away.

Accommodation

From brand-new rooms to budget-friendly Sheddies
Included
Every stay here comes with access to the pool, garden, BBQ area, mini ramp and beach volleyball court, whichever room type you choose.

Surf Camp – New House — Completed in 2026, with four double rooms and a 4-bed dorm, each with its own terrace and a view over the Algarve landscape. High-quality fittings and modern design throughout — the perfect base to unwind after a day at the sea.

2 Bed Bungalow — Brand-new, modern wooden bungalows for two, set in the large garden with a private bathroom and floor-to-ceiling windows on both sides. Bookable exclusively for two — a true tiny-house dream.

Surf Camp (Main Camp) — Freshly renovated double rooms with their own bathroom and rain shower, plus 4- and 6-bed multi-bed rooms, each with a private bathroom of their own.

4 Bed Apartment — A spacious apartment for families or groups of three or four, with an open kitchen and living room, a ground-floor bedroom with two single beds and a private bathroom, plus a mezzanine bedroom with a king-size bed and an open bathroom with a freestanding tub.

Sheddy / Sheddy Deluxe — Cozy 2-person wooden cabins with a double bed, or upgrade to a Sheddy Deluxe for two single beds and even more room to stretch out. Tall enough to stand and stash your board, with a shared bathroom nearby — the best-value stay in camp.

Pool, garden, new BBQ area and bar, mini ramp, beach volleyball court and outdoor gym, all shared across camp.

Your Package Includes

Meals
A healthy, balanced breakfast is included every morning — muesli, fresh rolls, cold cuts, fruit, coffee and tea to fuel you up before a day in the water. Dinner is bookable on-site for €20 a meal, headlined by a legendary weekly BBQ of freshly grilled regional fish, salads and Portuguese wine, plus a pizza night and evenings where the camp's own chef serves up traditional Portuguese dishes as a 3-course menu.
Surf Lessons
Surf Course M: Our 10-hour Surf Course M runs over 3 days, with a transfer included to the surf spots at Amado or Castelejo and a 1-hour theory session every Wednesday evening, cold drink in hand. Taught by certified, lifeguard-trained instructors at a ratio of 1 to 8, suited to beginners through advanced surfers aged 12 and up.

Surf Course XL: Want more time in the water? Our 16-hour Surf Course XL runs over 5 days with two sessions each, same transfers, ratio and Wednesday theory session as the M course. The better option if you really want to make progress, with individual 1:1 coaching also available on request.
Surf Equipment
Board and wetsuit (Quiksilver / Roxy) are included with every surf course, or available to rent separately at €20 a day for the board and €10 a day for the wetsuit.
Camp Activities
The heart of camp is the mini ramp, beach volleyball court and brand-new outdoor gym, all clustered together for skating, sport and sunset sessions.

Yoga is included three times a week, timed around your surf course, and the pool and garden are where everyone gathers to relax between sessions and swap stories over a drink.

Available on Request

SUP Tour
Paddle the untouched coastline around Sagres on a roughly 3-hour SUP tour, weaving through caves and grottoes and jumping from cliffs along the way, with equipment and a local guide included.
Day & Night Trips
Head to Lagos or Sagres for shopping, dolphin watching, a sunset at Europe's southwesternmost point, or a night out in Sagres' bars — easily arranged on-site.
Bike & Horse Riding
Explore the nature reserve on two wheels or on horseback, taking in the cliffside trails and coastal views that surround camp.

Location

Nature reserve living between two coastlines
Landes
Surf Camp Algarve sits in Raposeira, within the Costa Vicentina Nature Park in southern Portugal, just a 5-minute drive to the south coast and 10 minutes to the west coast.

This dual coastline access means there's almost always a wave to suit your level, from gentle beach breaks to more challenging spots at Amado and Castelejo.

The charming town of Raposeira is a short walk away, with Sagres and Lagos both a quick drive further, and the Algarve enjoying close to 300 days of sunshine a year.
