PRIVATE SURF GUIDING
Get to know your way around the Algarve's waves, beaches and surf conditions to maximize your surf trip
HIRE A PRIVATE ALGARVE SURF GUIDE
Surfing's a fickle sport & finding the best conditions isn't always easy. If you're new to this area of Portugal or don't feel like you're getting the best waves on offer, let one of our experienced guides take the guesswork and driving out of the equation.
Your surf guiding day
Our surf guide will collect you from anywhere in the surrounding Lagos area at a time that suits you. We'll check the forecast the night before and advise you on the best time to leave for finding the best waves. If conditions permit we'll aim to surf twice during the day at two different locations. The day will be completely based around you, expanding your knowledge of the area, and finding the waves you want to surf.
Where we'll go
Freedom! Everywhere and anywhere, and we'll have the full run of both of the Algarve coastlines to explore. We'll make a plan for the whole day and pack in as much local knowledge and surf spots as we can.
Our team
All our guides are professional surf coaches with industry coaching & lifeguarding qualifications. They're a warm and welcoming bunch who are long term locals, passionate about the area's surfing roots & culture. They also know a few hotspots for a delicious lunch or galao (Portuguese coffee) and a pastilla de nata.

"We're still only beginners but we have enough confidance after a few surf holidays to go it alone. Rhys made a great plan for our level the night before and we surfed the west coast in the morming because there was a light off shore and when the wind switched in the afternoon, we found a great spot on the south coast at low tide "
