Who is this for?
This longboard surf retreat in Portugal is for women of all ages, who would like to take their surfing a step further!
Maybe you have been feeling a little bit stuck with your progress lately? Maybe you don’t catch as many waves as you would like? You try to cross-step but then fall? Or do you already know how to get to the nose but would like to get better at it? If this sounds like you, then you’ve come to the right place. Our expert longboard coaches will provide you with the right tools for you to reach your goals and perfect the art of longboarding.
Are retreats are designed for intermediate surfers, we require you to catch your own waves and to be familiar with the line-up etiquette. We will be a small group of women to ensure that we can provide individual feedback and tips.

Whats included?
-
2 full days of surfing
2 full days of surf guiding with a specialized longboard coach. We will aim for 2 sessions a day, depending on the conditions. The aim is to have one session that will be filmed and coached from the land. And the second session with guidance in the water. In the evening we will analyze the videos together.
-
3 Nights of Accomodation
3 nights of accommodation at the beautiful Ahoy Surf House in Ferrel. You can choose whether you want to book a private or a shared room.
The cozy vibe of the house will make you feel right at home. On sunny days you will get to hang out in the beautiful outside area with a private pool. But the real asset of the house is that it is only 5 minutes drive to a selection of amazing longboard spots. -
nutritious, home-cooked meals
Given the physical intensity of this workshop, we believe that healthy nutrition is a key element. This is why we will prepare vegetarian breakfast, lunch and dinner for you.
Our family-style meals will give you a chance to get to know the other participants more closely, we will also talk about surf forecasts and plans for the day. -
Video Analysis
Videos will be captured from the beach during our surf sessions, which will be later analyzed together with our expert longboard coach to provide valuable insights and feedback. You will receive personalized feedback and guidance, helping you improve your surfing skills and technique. Additionally, a professional photographer will be joining us to capture some of our surf sessions in the water, ensuring you'll have plenty of high-quality photos to cherish the amazing memories from your workshop experience with SOL.

Where?
Peniche is about 1h 30 min north of Lisbon. Due to its geographical shape, it’s one of Portugal’s most consistent places to surf. You can find waves that work with any wind or swell direction within just minutes of driving. There’s not much else happening other than surf so the vibe is very chill and relaxed. You can find many cool cafes, restaurants and surf shops around.
