Your surf experience starts with a warm welcome at the beach, where we’ll provide all the necessary equipment, including a surfboard and wetsuit.

Once everyone is ready, we’ll head to the sand for a short warm-up and an introduction to the basics of surfing and ocean safety. Before entering the water, you’ll learn essential techniques such as paddling, standing up, and catching waves.

Q: Will I get seasick on Albufeira: Beginner Surf Lesson at Galé Beach?

A: If you have any doubts about becoming seasick on the water, we recommend taking a Dramamine® Motion Sickness Relief tablet the night before your trip. Some people recommend taking it the night before your cruise and then again that morning so you will not feel so drowsy. Read more Feb 2023
