The total duration of the activity is around 2hr. You will either have the surf experience at Guincho beach or at Carcavelos beach (depending on your surfing skills and ocean conditions).
The surf lessons consist on surf practice and surf theory. Every surf lesson will start with explaining the conditions of the spot (the beach, types of waves, currents, reference points), followed by warm-up and stretching exercises. First exercises and explanations are done on the beach (paddling, position on the board, take-off techniques, safety in the water, balance). Then, you will jump into the water to put into practice everything you have learnt on the sand. Once in the water, you will be under constant supervision of your instructors who will attentively control and comment on your performance, help you choose the right waves and correct your position if necessary.
The only thing we ask of you is to relax and enjoy yourself!
