FAQ’S

Here are the most common questions from our guests which you might find useful when planning your surf holiday.
If you can’t find an answer and need further info please contact us!

 

Should I bring my own board?

When attending the SurfCamp Pack all the equipment needed is included. If you book Bed & Breakfast only, there’s the possibility of renting a board or other equipment that you need. With both options, you can bring your own equipment if preferred.

Can I access the surf equipment given at any time?

Yes! Once signed in, you will have access to your own surf gear for the entire time. You will be responsible for the surfing equipment, meaning you’ll have to transport it to and from the beach on the day of your lessons and return it to the shop at the end.

How do I book?

You can use our Online Booking directly on www.surfivorcamp.com or, if you prefer, you can simply contact us. We are happy to help you with your booking or any questions via email or over the phone as well.

What is the best time to surf in Portugal?

If you are looking for bigger waves and a more challenging Surf experience we recommend late winter to early spring, with waves typically measuring 2-4.5m or 6-15ft but that doesn’t mean summer doesn’t provide its fair share of great waves too. This time of year is more appropriate for beginners because the waves tend to be gentler measuring around 1-1.5m or 3-5ft.

How to get to Surfivor Surf Camp from the airport?

Surfivor is only 35km away from Porto’s Airport and it’s quite easy to find your way to the surf camp. You can take the Metro right from beneath the airport to Porto and then take the train to Esmoriz. 

Should you prefer a private transfer, our 24h airport shuttle can pick you up at any time and our driver meets you at the airport to bring you to Surfivor. Book our airport shuttle from € 60,-

I have never surfed before. Can I still attend the Surfcamp?

At Surfivor we offer surf lessons for beginner and intermediate level. So if you have never stood on a surfboard before, our experienced and friendly surf coaches will have you surfing in no time.

For those surfers who already have some surfing knowledge under their belt, we also offer intermediate courses, guiding you to the best surf spots and giving you helpful tips to take your skills to the next level.

What if I want to attend the Surf Camp Portugal on other days?

The Holiday Pack Program is scheduled specifically from Sunday to Sunday. If you want to attend the SurfCamp on other days, this is only possible in April, May and October and there might be changes in the pricing.
From June to September only full surf weeks from Sunday to Sunday are available for booking.

Besides surfing what other activities can I do?

We are committed to make your holidays a relaxed and comfortable experience as can be.
Besides Surfing, you can find a wide variety of activities such as Yoga, Bicycle tours, Beach walks, City Trips, Parties and BBQ’s.
Esmoriz is an incredible location for athletes and has a very active local community. Running, cycling, football, volleyball and surfing, of course, are the most popular activities. Right next to the surf camp is Barrinha Lagoon, a protected nature reserve with a boardwalk for walkers, cyclists, runners and photographers. Esmoriz has a surprising number of great restaurants, and a few minimarkets in case you prefer to cook at camp. Prices are very affordable and the community is warm and welcoming. We offer a weekly BBQ and 2x Yoga for Surfers per week from April to October.

Can I visit Porto during my stay?

In terms of the location, our surf camp offers you all you could want from a surfing holiday.
With the beach right in front and a variety of great surf spots nearby, you are guaranteed for great surfing.
The city of Porto is only half an hour from Esmoriz and it’s great for a quick visit or spending the day visiting the city of Port Wine and culture. Easily hop on the train into the city center and explore the many attractions Oporto has to offer.
