We spent 5 days having classes with Boa Onda Surf School and absolutely recommend it and would do it again. The teachers are top: very professional and really nice guys. They give a lot of attention to every single student and will make your surf skills improve A LOT if this is your first surf experience or if you're looking to reach the next level. And you'll definitely have a lot of fun in the process! :)

This school is epic, Jeffrey and Nuno are doing an excellent job. Students get very detailed explanations before getting into the water and the teachers are also extremely active in the water marking the right spot and motivating the students big time to catch waves. I visited several surf schools in Europe and this is really over the top. Will definitely continue visiting them.

Fantastic experience with instructor Ze Nuno last week! He was wonderful to communicate with and masterfully managed four of us with varying skill levels. All four surfers improved over the course of the lesson. We were sad that we couldn't stay for multiple days and will have to come back again. I highly recommend Boa Onda and Ze Nuno!

With passion and professionalism Zé Nuno and his team taught me last October how to surf. From them I learnt the basics of how to surf and be patient with this process. Their never ending motivation helped and they very as happy as I was to finally stand on the board and catch waves by myself after a few days. Small groups, exact teaching and a lot of jokes made learning fun. All teachers speak professional English and I can highly recommend the surf school and will come back for sure! Thanks a lot guys.

With Boa onda surf school you will get a great time. I really enjoyed the time learning out to surf. Zé Nuno is an excellent coach: friend, looking carefully to the surfers, having always a positive word to say, a correction to do, very emphatic generating a connection with surfers. It was very easy to get in contact and arrange the surf classes. If you don’t know any surf school, go for boa onda, they are very “boa onda”!

5 half days in August. Complete novices. we finished managing to surf the first "green waves" independently. groups of 5/6 people depending on the day.
we have always practiced at the Praia di Monte Clerigo, a wonderful spot, worth the price of the ticket alone.
Ze Nuno was our instructor. A great. direct, engaging, precise and technical teaching method when necessary. In the water he was everywhere and very attentive to our moves, he always had personalized feedback on what we had done well or badly. speaks excellent English.
Practically new equipment, in perfect condition.
highly recommended, honest prices.

Just the best surfing school that u can expected! The teachers are giving u general tips for each session and then they give u a feedback when u catch a wave or if you need some more help they won’t hesitate to push u and telling u when u have to go up and stuff. The big plus is that you’re not in big groups, u have a teacher for 5 people, so it just great. I highly recommend the school and the place is just amazing too.

Juste la meilleure école de surf, les profs sont super pédagogues, ils donnent pour chaque sessions des conseils généraux et après dans l’eau ils aident chaque élève selon leur niveau soit avec des feed-back soit en les aidant à prendre les vagues.... Juste au top! Les groupes sont petits de maximum 5 personnes pour un moniteur, voir même moins. Je recommande vivement cette école et les plages sont magnifiques

I´ve been surfing with Boa Onda for 7 years now, this year was the first time after Covid and my son was with me. What can I say, it was fantastic again. Most people are beginners and are being taken care of with very close supervision. However, even people who can catch their own waves and make one or the other turn still profit from the expert knowledge of Ze Nuno and Geoffrey who are in the water 200 days a year. Also, Ze Nuno and Geoffrey also took us out into the open water to surf the bigger waves even if it was just two of us or even just me! That is incredible commitment. Prices get lower the longer you book and value for money is excellent. So, book with them and enjoy the portugese Boa Onda!

What should I write, when all the feedbacks contents 5 from five stars. We will give more than 5 stars for that surf school at Mt. Clerigo beach.

Many thanks to the good exercieces on the beach and in the water we send to the entire team f.ex. Ricardo for pushing me into the right start position, Zé who give after each wave an important advice and Jeffrey who explained with a smile the right surfposition.

Sometimes it feels like a private lesson, because all the teachers doing a really great job and motivate us for the next surfsessions.

Great spot tu surf specially for beginners and intermediate. We had a great time and the instructors are super chill, the team is well organized and even though it was a half day lesson they take the class seriously so you can enjoy it as much as possible. The beach is also a nice place to relax for the day and have some food at the cafes close by. Great experience!
