Surf Camp Peniche

France

The Surf Camp

Peniche is Portugal's surfing Mecca, and our camp sits right in the middle of the action on the trendy Baleal peninsula — a 15-minute walk from two beaches and just around the corner from Supertubos, widely considered the best wave in Europe.

It's a cozy, freshly renovated camp built around a garden and pool, with cool bars, cafés and surf shops all within easy walking distance.

Whether you're chasing your first green wave or working on your turns, our experienced instructors will get you into the right conditions at Baleal's beach and reef breaks.

Our Peniche package is built around a balanced breakfast buffet, three yoga sessions, two cross-training sessions with a coach, and a weekly wine and cheese tasting. Every room here has its own private bathroom, and the camp comes with a free-to-use indoor gym, a drinking water refill station and a relaxed garden and pool where the whole camp gathers between sessions. With Peniche’s old town, lighthouse and fortress a short drive away and Lisbon just an hour further, this is a surf trip that mixes proper waves with proper culture

A balanced breakfast buffet is included every day — fresh bread, cheese, sausage and jam alongside fruit, muesli, coffee and tea, with vegan options like almond and soy milk always on offer.

Surf Lessons
Surf Course M: Our 10-hour Surf Course M runs over 5 days with 1.5 hours of practical surfing each day plus 2.5 hours of theory, including photo and video analysis. Suited to beginners and intermediates aged 12 and up, with board, wetsuit and a shuttle to the Baleal surf spot all included, taught at a ratio of 1 instructor to 8 students.

Surf Course L: Want more time in the water? Our 13-hour Surf Course L adds extra sessions across 6 days, with the same theory, equipment, shuttle and instructor ratio as the M course. The better option if you want to make real progress across your stay.

Advanced Surf Course: For confident surfers, our Advanced Surf Course runs at whichever spot suits the day and your level best, in small groups of up to four per instructor. Performance surfboards and a wetsuit matched to your level are included, along with video analysis and a transfer to the best spot. Taught by ISA-licensed instructors, bookable on-site.
Surf Equipment
Board and wetsuit are included with every surf course, matched to your level and ready to go from the equipment shuttle to Baleal.
Camp Activities
The indoor gym is free to use any time, and two cross-training sessions a week with a fitness coach mix bodyweight work with weights, bands and box jumps to keep you strong for the water.

The garden and pool are the heart of camp life, with table tennis for lazy afternoons and three included yoga sessions to help with balance, flexibility and recovery after a long surf day.

Location

Baleal peninsula, next to Europe's best wave
Landes
The camp sits on the trendy Baleal peninsula next to Peniche, just a 15-minute walk from two beaches and around the corner from the world-famous Supertubos wave.

Baleal itself has bars, cafés, restaurants, a bakery and surf shops right on the doorstep, with Peniche's old town, lighthouse and fortress a short drive away.

Lisbon is about an hour by car, and regular bus connections make it easy to explore further afield without needing your own transport.
