Best surf school ever!

Published on Dec, 2024

I am writing this not as a student, but as a surf coach for Algarve Watersport. As me and my colleagues are coming back from our end-of-season sponsored surf trip, we all surf instructors working for AWS feel very lucky and happy to work for this school. Thank you for making this place such a nice school to work for. Much love!

Great experience

Published on Nov, 2024

First time surfing and it was amazing! The lesson was fun, the inductor knowledgeable and supportive and the surf spot with the beach and landscape incredibly pretty. Looking forward to making more progress throughout the week.

Definitely recommend

Great surf lessons, Noemi explained everything very clear and had a lot of patience. Also the enthusiasm really helped. It was well organized.

Great way to spend the day in Lagos!

Published on Oct, 2024

Had such a fun day! They cater to different levels, which helped with our group. Our instructor was great - nice, patient and so funny. The beach was beautiful and probably not somewhere I would’ve gone by myself. Absolutely recommend!

Great people and views
