Surf The waves

Right in the middle of world-famous spots, Ericeira and Peniche - Santa Cruz still benefits from the powerful Atlantic swell while retaining the heritage of a picturesque fishing village where beers are generously served and the locals are welcoming.

Surf we don't just push you into the water and wish you good luck: our experienced surf guides get up early every morning to scout out where the swell is strongest, to make sure you're in the right place at the right time. Whether you're looking for slabs or foam for space to learn, we'll make sure you laugh, learn and have the time of your life.

After soaking up the sun come home and refresh yourself with a cool drink from the pool bar. Followed by our weekly barbecue evenings and a pizza oven to keep you coming back after spending time in the sunshine. wavesYou can start your day chasing the waves and end it lying by the pool or on a yoga mat. Or head into town for a wild night out in palm-fringed Santa Cruz. Our Stokies have spotted the best places to detox after a day in the green room.

Our advice impressions of 360° Surf

This destination is great for young people who want to surf, meet new people and party. When you're not in the water, there's plenty to do here!

Visit the local vineyards (Santa Cruz was named European City of Wine in 2018), feast on fresh, locally caught seafood or watch a sunset so beautiful it will have you googling 'long-term visas to Portugal'. We also offer horse-riding options and can point you in the direction of nearby walks - for beach-goers who have had enough of surf and sand.
