OK with kids
Kids' lessons from age 6, 2.5 h, max 4 children per instructor; group lessons from 12 (own site, accessed 4 Oct 2026). Research, not first-hand.
The notes
A Sagres surf school that does not stick to one beach: instructors check tide, wind and swell each morning and choose between Tonel, Mareta, Beliche or somewhere else nearby [1]. That matters in Sagres, where the south- and west-facing beaches behave very differently on the same day.
Lessons and ages (published, checked 4 October 2026)
- Group lessons: up to 8 students per instructor, two sessions totalling 3 hours, minimum age 12 [1]
- Kids’ lessons: up to 4 children per instructor, one 2.5-hour session, minimum age 6 [1]
- Private lessons: one or two people, 3 hours over two sessions, minimum age 6 [1]
- Coaching for levels 3–4, from age 16 [1]
The site shows no prices — they appear only inside the booking system [1][2].
Who it suits
Families with children between 6 and 11 (the kids’ format has the smallest groups of any Sagres school we found published), and intermediate surfers who want coaching rather than a first lesson.
Check before you go
The operator says the surf house is being rebuilt, with reopening planned for 27 December 2026. Check accommodation availability separately from surf lessons; the site does not say lessons are paused [2].
