Why Baleal?

Baleal is a gem on Portugal's Silver Coast, renowned for its exceptional surfing conditions. This charming town concurred our hearts last year with its authentic laid-back surfer’s vibe. streets, quaint cafes, and a welcoming community. But the real magic happens on the water.

Baleal's Beaches and Waves: Known for its consistent swells, Baleal is a paradise for surfers of all levels. The unique geography of the Peniche peninsula provides a variety of surf spots, ensuring that no matter the wind or swell direction, there’s always a perfect wave to ride. From the beginner-friendly waves of Cantinho da Baía to the more challenging breaks of Supertubos, there’s something for everyone.

Video Analysis: One of the best ways to progress is tu actually see yourself what you’re doing.  We’ll cozy-up together in the big sofa in front of the big screen tv with drinks and analyse the videos of that day.  We’ll comment you what you did right, laugh at everybody’s fails and show you how you can improve.

Close to Nazaré: Just a short drive away is Nazaré, home to the biggest waves in the world. On days with a big swell, we'll take a trip to this legendary spot to witness the awe-inspiring power of the ocean as it creates waves up to 100 feet high. It’s a sight you won’t forget and an experience that will leave you breathless.  It’s the ultimate surfer’s bonding experience.
