Activity description

Onda Pura Surf School now presents an innovative program for your holidays that features beginner surf classes at the best beach breaks of northern Portugal. Over 2 or 5 days you will have 2 hours of course per day to become the surfer you always dreamt of!

When not on a surfboard, be prepared for unforgettable entertainment in Oporto, a city whose beautiful downtown is part of the World’s Historical Patrimony. Oporto is becoming a popular surf destination for beginner and intermediate surfers.

Come and see for yourself what makes this city one of the most desirable places to combine surf & culture during your holidays. This is a unique way to experience all that Oporto has to offer: a huge cultural heritage and an endless number of beautiful beaches with a wide variety of waves for every level, just 15 minutes away. In the North of Portugal you will be able to surf more than 20 surf spots during your surf holidays and have everything planned by the staff of Onda Pura.

Get to live the most incredible surf holidays, in a relaxing environment! 

The hostel

You'll be staying in Casa Rietsh HOSTEL, one of the newest hostels in Porto. Enjoy the fantastic beaches of northern Portugal. You'll also enjoy the superb cuisine, culture and the best corners of the Portuguese city known for its imposing bridges. It is a two minute walk from the surfing centre.

The surfing spot

Get to know the excellent, crowd-less beach breaks, where you can enjoy great surf sessions, every day, and all year long. In this region you’ll find a temperate climate with consistent surf, a culturally rich city, full of surprises, which will make your holidays unique!

The programme

There are two options to choose from: either the 3 nights/3 days options either the 5 nights/6 days option. In both cases you will have two hours of surfing class per day. The programme is specialised for beginners who really wish to progress rapidly in a "surfer's" environment. You will learn the basic techniques and how to choose the right wave! The experienced instructors of Onda Pura will teach you everything they've learned through the years - which board is the best for every type of wave, the tricks and hops, and the technique to be the best surfer in the area! All classes are done in groups of 8 people max.
