Surf trip in Portugal  -  4 days

This TravelTailors itinerary promotes a sport with strong international recognition in Portugal, benefiting from its privileged coast.


Arrival in Lisbon.
Lisbon is one of the most fascinating cities in Europe! With blue skies almost all year round and a mild winter, Lisbon offers breathtaking panoramas of the city and the river, a picturesque setting where old trams take us from the narrow cobbled streets up to the excellent new hotels in broad boulevards, fabulous shopping opportunities and a fantastic nightlife. The old blends with the sophistication of the 21st century.

Alfama and the Castle give you a historic glimpse of the Arab and medieval times. In the areas of Chiado, Bairro Alto and Príncipe Real, you can find some of the trendiest restaurants and bars in Lisbon. During the day, the streets are filled with animated crowds strolling around the museums, the shops, the art galleries, the cafes or grocery stores that sell regional gourmet products. From Baixa to the Marquês de Pombal Square, there are theaters, restaurants and a number of shops to enjoy. In Belém, lies the majestic Jerónimos Monastery, the famous Tower of Belém, the Cultural Centre and the many museums and gardens that surround them.

It is imperative to try the delicious Pastel de Belém!

Continue to Areia Branca.

A magical place less than an hour from Lisbon: here you can fully breathe in nature. The pine trees, dunes and sea tell you their secrets. Feel the originality, the comfort and sophistication. Drive to Peniche.
Before entering the town of Peniche, take a walk by the coast and let yourself be immersed in the magnificence of the sea. Coloring itself in tones of intense blue or deep green, either calm or with ferocious waves breaking in the rocks, this sea has molded strange and dramatic forms into the rocks, reminiscent of huge collapsed monuments. Take a walk in the Baleal beach, stretched out between two seas as if it were an island (and it has been one), and along the Consolação beach (south), for its excellent surf and bodyboard conditions. In Peniche, the fortress built by King D. João IV in the 17th century, along with the Consolação and São João Baptista's (St. John the Baptist´s) beaches' forts, in Berlengas, formed an important military complex for protection against seaborne invasions.

Surf class in Peniche.
Due to its geographic location, Peniche offers good waves all year round, being known worldwide as one of the best and most consistent spots for the practices of surf and bodyboard. There are several places with varied types of waves: from tubular waves, to ones less vertical and easier to surf, provided by the ideal sand bottoms for a safe initiation to these sports.

Continue to Ribeira d´Ilhas.
This is a beautiful and cosy beach in Ericeira, in which the rock bottom (point-break) develops straight waves, either in the North part (that has the name Pontinha), or in the central part. It's a full beach: it's good for amateurs and experts alike, being also the chosen spot for carrying out world events.

Continue to Guincho.

In the Cascais area, the long sandy beach of Guincho is very sought after by everyone during summer and all year round by surfers and windsurfers, because this  beach offers excellent conditions for these sports.

Bike ride in Guincho's bicycle path.
By the sea, there is an 8 km bicycle path, ideal to relax and enjoy the scenery. The bike rental is free. Drive to Milfontes.
With a well preserved coast, the Alentejo boasts busy beaches as well as secluded ones, between River Sado's mouth and the Algarve. From Tróia to Sines you can enjoy a continuous stretch of sand, with many pleasant beaches such as Galé, Melides or Santo André. From the Sines' Port this natural paradise of sand and sea moves forward through Porto Covo, Milfontes, Almograve and Zambujeira do Mar.

Continue to Sagres.
Going back to times prior to the roman conquest, it was in the 15th century that Sagres gained great importance. The frequent presence of Prince D. Henrique, during the beginning of the Atlantic navigation, associated this simple fishing port with the Portuguese Discoveries. Nearby, in the southeastern end of the European continent, you will find the Cape of S. Vicente (St. Vincent), a Romans' Promotorium Sacrum, where a vast horizon of sea and sky opens itself before us.

Surf class in Sagres.
According to your level, we'll book a class in one of the most famous spots of the country. Sagres is an ideal place for surfing. The natural conditions of a great part of the atlantic beaches are excellent for the practice of this sport, with plenty of waves that gather the specific conditions.
