Ericeira surf camp is located in Ribeira d’Ilhas Beach, between Ericeira and Ribamar. Nestling on the Atlantic coast a short drive north of Lisbon, Ericeira is a traditional fishing village and Portugal's surfing Mecca, internationally renowned as one of the best surfing spots in Europe..
Since 1985 it has played host to the ASP (WQS) world championship. Five minutes away from the centre of Ericeira and next to the beach, Ericeira Surf Camp features several wooden bungalows, a camping area and a bar-restaurant, as well as a range of leisure activities. The facilities are situated in front of a beach break with perfect waves for all levels, and a short distance from several of Portugal's best surfing breaks, such as Coxos and Pedra Branca. At night the restaurant also works as a bar, where parties and surfing movies sessions are held. During the WQS contest, the area in the centre of the camp also hosts concerts and DJ's, when people dance all night long!

The Camp
Fifty metres away from the beach, accommodation consists of 8 heated bungalows, sleeping 28 persons and equipped with 2 bunk-beds each, a surf-rack. The bathrooms are 10m. away from the bungalows and feature showers and toilets. Two bungalows have private bathrooms. There is a common area, covered from the sun for reading, or just hanging out, and a wooden wall around the bungalow area to ensure the privacy. Alternative accommodation is available in tents, which can be rented at the camp.

At the restaurant, you will find everything from light meals and traditional Portuguese food to vegetarian dishes. The terrace looks out at the point, so you can see everyone surfing at Ribeira Dilhas surfspot. At night the restaurant also works as a bar, where parties and surfing movies sessions are held. The camp offers a number of leisure activities such as mountain biking, football, volleyball, yoga and a half pipe for skateboarding and rollerblading.

Ericeira
EriceiraEriceira itself is a charming little town with whitewashed houses, accented with painted frames, lining narrow streets. Ericeira is also ideally located halfway between Peniche to the north and Lisbon to the south, both less than a one hour drive. Avisit to the Portuguese capital is a must. Other primer sightseeing in the area include the Mafra Palace and Sintra. Modelled after the famous El Escorial in Madrid, Mafra Palace is an architectural work of extraordinary grandeur and majesty built in the 18th Century by King Joao V. Portugal's largest building, the project was so big that a small town was built just to house the workers! The palace houses over 800 rooms rooms looking out onto the gardens through some 4,500 doorways and windows.
Further south towards Lisbon, the resort town of Sintra shelters inland at the foot of the Serra da Sintra and was long favoured by the Portuguese Royalty and the English aristocracy as a summer destination. The small town is located in a thickly wooded setting, with lush gardens, old palaces and villas with a ramshackle glamour. This stylish and romantic architectural complex is listed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. A visit to the medieaval town Peniche, north of Ericeira, is also well worth your time, more so for being another reputed surf spot.

I have just come back from Ericeira Surfcamp and just wanted to say that it is the BEST Surfcamp I have ever been to so far in Portugal. The people were extremely friendly, the Surf lessons excellent and the food of top quality.
Just Amazing :-)
