Description
Our surf camp is in Vila Nova de Milfontes in Alentejo region, on Portugal SW Coast, which is conveniently located approximately 180kms from both airports of Lisbon and Faro.
The town is located in the most untouched area of the Natural Park , where the beaches are perfect to enjoy your time, good waves and to improve your surfing technique.
The town is small, but very beautiful and cute: pay attention that we don't have a lot of bars, clubs and night life in general, but we offer pure nature, harmony and possibility to stop and to enjoy every moment and every wave!

- Housework helpers (cooking, cleaning, shopping, doing check-ins & check-outs, SHARING GOOD VIBES WITH GUESTS);
