Family Surf Camp | Ericeira | Portugal

Travel to our surf camp during the summer holidays near the city of Ericeira in Portugal.

We have arranged a family surfing camp in the cozy area just outside Ericeira in Portugal. We will enjoy the pool, drink good wines from the vineyards in the neighborhood and enjoy locally produced ingredients. Our camp has 6 double rooms (with room for 3 people) and 4 apartments with room for up to 4 people. Every day we go out and surf with skilled local instructors and there is something for both beginners and experienced. If you do not feel that you have been active enough during the day, then in addition to the pool there is also an ice rink at the camp.

Our little surfing trip is mainly for families, but everyone in the family does not have to surf, as there are many other options on our little excursion besides the fun at the camp with the other families. It will be possible to go out and climb with an instructor, get lessons, try mountain biking around the mountains or SUP (Stand Up Paddling). Surf lessons go down to 6 years, but this summer there were many families who went together and looked for the small beach so you can take turns surfing.

A surfing adventure with the whole family

Our small surf camp is located between pine forests, palm trees, orchards and where there is 100% rural idyll. However, we are not far to the beach and some of the best surf spots located along the coast. It takes about 20 minutes to walk down to the beach from our get-away and about 40 minutes back (it’s uphill) Most people choose to rent a car so they can take you around more easily. However, we are picked up every time there are surfing lessons and many choose to leave the car because they just want to enjoy our little excursion and relax.

We mostly surf on pebble beaches and we do it because there is a lot of current on the sandy beaches. However, it is always possible to go to the delicious sandy beaches on your own little excursion. We are very dependent on the tide and therefore some of the lessons can be laid out early in the morning and / or in the evening. Of course, we take care of the very best conditions when you go out on the water.

Ericeira is a charming Portuguese fishing village that with its fantastic surfing beaches has been transformed into a surfing mecca. Ericeira is a perfect blend of Portuguese heritage with an ultra-cool surfing atmosphere, where traditional fishing cottages are nestled among cozy lounge bars and cafés and then the town is known for its delicious seafood. Ericeira is just 50 km away. north of Lisbon.

From March to November you also have the opportunity to take both family and friends to our regular surf camp just outside Peniche, read more about the camp here. We also offer a family surf camp in Montalivet, France

At the beach, the rest of the day is all about surfing, relaxing, and enjoying yourself.
If you’re not into surfing, you can chill by the pool or practice on the skate ramp.

We went on a trip with DBP in Portugal near Ericeira. We stayed at the most beautiful place surrounded by orange trees and with a view of the sea! We were there at the end of the season, which meant that there weren’t many people at the site. But it was cozy and a wonderful experience to go surfing, cycling, and practicing yoga. However, we didn’t think the food lived up to its good reputation – and the chef chose to drop the extra features – such as pizza over the fire, barbecue evening, etc. because it was just our family for the last 3-4 days.

Our family of 2 adults and 2 children aged 11 and 8 respectively went to the surf camp in Ericeira. It was the first time we tried surfing and we had an absolutely fantastic week of surfing, yoga and cozy moments with the other families down there. We were quite bubbly afterwards and can definitely recommend it to other families who want to try an active holiday. And then you live in the most beautiful place in beautiful surroundings, with the sweetest people and delicious food. It is located a short distance from the beach so we recommend a car. We are definitely ready for another active holiday with DBP Adventures.

Traveled down to Portugal, which definitely can be recommended to other families, perhaps especially with slightly older children. The food was absolutely amazing, the view from the room was magical and the surfing lessons were incredibly good. However, we were a little unlucky with the weather for a few days, but it did not do much. 5 stars from here!
