“I didn’t know it was possible to learn so much about surfing in one week!”
Surfivors GREEN WAVE CHASERS 2019 will be a week to hone your surf techniques and get you riding the best waves available in North Portugal. Our Surf Camp Esmoriz has been running our Green Wave Chasers Weeks for 3 years. These weeks are scheduled for the start of the season, and are for you intermediate surfers who plan to do a few surf trips this year. Get your surf year started right, by understanding your unique challenges and setting specific goals.
Our Intermediate Surf Course aims at surfers who want to improve wave selection and positioning in the line up, pop up faster and on steeper green waves, and carve on the wave face. Everyday we will talk about each surf spot: when is the best time to surf it, where the channels are and if there are any hazards. In this way you can learn techniques to evaluate surf spots on your own. We also offer advice on equipment if you are thinking about investing in a wetsuit or surfboard. Though this is more geared towards beginners, here is an article with our Top Tips on How To Get Into Surfing.
Surfivor offers an Intermediate Surf Course EVERY WEEK of the year. So why is GREEN WAVE CHASERS WEEK different? Because in this week we will gather as many intermediate surfer together as possible, so we can all learn from each other and rip together.

make sharper and more controlled turns
control speed on the wave
understand and negotiate a crowded line up
follow the rules and surf etiquette
