 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I had such a great week with Surf in Ericeira! My coaches, Marcelo and Pedro, were honestly awesome — super skilled, super attentive, and always bringing this motivating, positive energy into every session 🙌 The waves were powerful all week, but they encouraged me, noticed every detail, and gave me clear, useful tips (including some I’d never heard before). They supported me when I hesitated, helped me feel more confident in the Atlantic (which usually intimidates me), and I really felt my technique improve. One day we did video analysis, and Marcelo shared with me the footage with a lot of personalised advice based on what he saw — paddling, technique, timing, wave reading — plus a few things to work on even when I’m not surfing. I really appreciated that a lot! I left this week genuinely happy and would love to come back to keep progressing with them 💙

At first, I felt a mix of nerves and excitement, but Vasco made me feel super safe, confident, and motivated. Thanks to his great teaching, I was able to stand up on my very first wave! 🌊 I can highly recommend the surf school to anyone who is around!
