The notes
Lagos Surf Center is a surf shop on Rua Silva Lopes in the old town that runs day-long “surfari” trips: you meet at the shop at 09:00, the instructors pick a beach for the day’s conditions, and you are back around 15:00. It suits beginners and intermediates who want a full day out rather than a two-hour lesson, and it also offers private lessons, board-only “rent & ride” trips and SUP tours.
