Vilamoura Surf Project

Head down to Falesia Beach in the Algarve and learn how to surf with local legends - Vilamoura Surf Project.

Founded in 2009, Vilamoura Surf Project represents a collective of experienced local surf instructors that call this epic stretch on the Algarve home! Voted as one of the best beginner's surf beaches in Portugal, the clean, consistent and accessible beach break is a must for beginner surfers of all ages and abilities.

One of the Top 25 Beaches in the World, Praia da Falésia is more than 6 kilometres long -  stretching from Vilamoura all the way to Olhos de Água (near Albufeira) in the West. Just 30 minutes from nearby Faro Aiport, surfing at Falésia Beach is one of the 10 best things to do in the Algarve!

Renowned for its red cliffs, Falesia Beach is one of the best resorts in southern Portugal, that's why Vilamoura Surf Project decided to make it their beach base - operating throughout the year but most popular during the summer holiday months of April - September.

It's wide, open coastline and long sandy beaches make it a great place to learn how to surf. Offering shallow, waist-height white water and small green waves, their team of ISA trained instructors provide small-group lessons and private one-to-ones for first timers and improvers alike. What’s more, Vilamoura Surf Project even has its own accommodation options, making organising your net surf trip even easier!

Located right on the sand, their convenient surf shop also has rental options, too - allowing you practise your skills with their soft foam boards - or take one of their high-quality epoxy's out for a ride!
