Itinerary

Depending on your individual interests, we can arrange your choice of activities in the best conditions.

Surfing:
Our surf camp takes advantage of closeby beaches of Peniche and Baleal which are renowned across Europe for its consistent and clean waves. With over 20 breaks along the 15km stretch of coastline, the area offers exceptional surfing conditions all year round suiting all abilities from beginner to professional. We offer instruction for all surfers and bodyboarders from beginners to advanced, with lessons individually tailored to ability. Beginners are taught surfing and boarding basics including how to be safe in the waves. More experienced surfers and boarders are given hints and tricks for paddling and more advanced manoeuvres such as ‘cut-backs’ through in-water guidance by our experienced instructors. We offer transport to and from the campsite to take you to the perfect waves in the area.
All lessons include the full range of equipment. All equipment is of the highest specification with a wide range of boards and high quality wetsuits in all sizes for men, women and children. All instructors are certified by the Portuguese Federation of Surfing. Our surf trips include transport to the best waves in the area, instruction, wetsuit and board.

Kitesurfing:
Kitesurf is a recent sport that results of the combination of surf and paragliding involving a board underneath the feet with a kite trapped to the athlete and a bar to control direction. It can be practised in still waters (lagoons, lakes, dams) or in the ocean. Kitesurfing allows big jumps and radical manoeuvres. But before you take on these high flights prepare yourself with one of our monitors all certificated by IKO (International Kitesurf Organisation). We offer tuition on the calm Obidos lagoon.

Windsurfing:
Story says that two Californian surfers tired of paddling to catch the waves decided to use the wind force to do it. So they applied a Latin typed sail on a longboard and windsurf was born. Its development was fast and nowadays windsurf is well spread all around the globe, wherever there are favourable winds either in lagoons, dams or beaches. The biggest.
When experience is gained manoeuvres star to come along. With us you not only have access to experienced professionals in the area but also to great safety conditions.

Mountain Biking:
We offer mountain bike rental. On the doorstep of our camp are a number of great cycling routes, whether it be a leisurely cycle around the lagoon or a more exhilarating ride through the forest.
For more experienced mountain bikers we can arrange trips to MonteJunto, the largest mountain close to Lisbon which offers exciting and challenging terrain. We have excellent Cannondales available for hire. Please enquire for details of organized trips.

Canoes:
We offer Canadian Canoes which sit up to 3 people. We launch the canoes from the stream at the bottom of our camp and paddle to Obidos lagoon. We also offer guided canoe trips. Our guides can show you the lagoon identifying points of interest, wildlife, and even enjoy a spot of fishing from the canoe and a BBQ lunch on the banks of the lagoon.

Catamaran:
Catamaran is a two hulled boat. Stable and fast catamaran was born in the Polynesian waters and was used by the natives as transportation. Nowadays catamaran is used not only for recreation but also as a competition vehicle. For experienced sailors we offer catamaran rental. Beginners can take advantage of our experienced instructors to teach you to sail. Try it! We assure that sailing without any other sound besides the wind and the water is an unforgettable experience.

Optimist:
Optimist is a small boat created back in 1947 by the architect Clark Mills. This light boat is very stable and simple to command. As it has small dimensions optimist is perfect for children (6 to 12 years old) to learn sailing.

Wakeboard / Water Ski:
Wakeboard: In order to practise wakeboard you must have: a board (similar to a snowboard), a motor boat and a rope. Born in the USA wakeboard has been conquering supporters all around the world because it is fast and quite radical. For its security Lagoa de Óbidos is the perfect spot to take on the wakeboard initiation.

Water Ski: Just like wakeboard, water ski also requires a motor boat and a rope, but instead of a board you need a pair of skis. The biggest challenge is to maintain the balance at a high speed. Both water ski and wakeboard are easy to learn.

Stand Up Paddle:
SUP or Stand Up Paddle, is a water-sport currently gaining recognition even though its origins are not so current. It dates back to the 1960’s, which is already last century!
Originating from the Hawaian term Ku Hoe He’e Nalu which literally means “standing up, rowing and surfing the wave”. This surfboard, or Stand Up Paddle, began being used in Hawaii as an observation platform where instructors could keep watch over the trainees and students spread out in the waters while learning to surf. It was also used as a platform where a photografer had a vantage point for taking pictures of tourists learning to surf.

Today it is considered an up-and-coming alternative sport, providing an excellent source of exercise for legs, arms and core. It builds strength and equilibrium while teaching one about the feel of the surfboard. It allows surfers and windsurfers to enjoy their sport of propelling forwards through the water while in the absence of waves or wind!
The calm waters of the Obidos Lagoon are the perfect place to safely begin using and enjoying the Stand Up Paddle. And who knows, one day soon, you might be enjoying the waves of other oceans!

Horse Riding:
We have 15 beautiful horses including stallions, mares and foals. All the horses have been trained using Natural Horsemanship techniques focusing on a natural approach to horse training. This means all the horses are incredibly gentle and safe, so can cater for riders of all abilities.

All rides go with an experienced trail guide. We can offer a range of rides including around the beautiful Obidos lagoon, through the forest and beach rides.
No matter what you choose, we guarantee you a fantastic time, leaving to go back home fully charged, a little more toned, suntanned and looking forwards to your next time back with us
