Surf Guiding
Surf Guiding — Hit the right spot at the right time
Anyone who has ever been on a surf trip knows that it takes time to figure out a new place. To know what spots work best at what tides, swell and wind directions.
The Surf guiding is our way to help get it right instantly and to reduce your need for a rental car. Our aim is to find fun waves that allow you both good wave count and quality walls. We will take crowds and waves into consideration and look for fun and rippable rather than big and hairy. From Carcavelos to Peniche.
No equipment is included in this pack, so you must bring your own surfboard. You also need to be an advanced fully independent surfer with a minimum of 600 hours of surf experience.
