Surf year-round
Surf Lisbon, season by season
The best season depends on you. Summer brings social, beginner-friendly waves. Autumn has warm water and consistent surf. Winter & Spring offer quieter lineups and great waves for progression — we match the beach to your level every day.

SPRING
MAR-MAY
best for
Grow confidence + swell building up
● Mid season (1 Mar. – 19 May)
● More consistent waves without too much power
● Less wind than winter makes for clean conditions
● Caparica or Carcavelos
Fewer crowds than summer – more waves per session.

Summer Surf
MAY-OUT
best for
Easy waves + beach days
● High season (20 May – 15 Out)
● Smaller, more approachable waves
● Warmest weather and water
● Mostly Caparica
Portugal water stays “refreshing” – 18°C to 20°C. Wetsuit included in all our lessons.

Progress Season
NOV-FEB
best for
Cleaner swells + Skill building
● Low season (1 Nov. – 28 Feb.)
● More reliable Atlantic swell
● Quieter lineups, great for progression
● Mostly Carcavelos and Torre (or other sheltered spots)
Mild Lisbon winter, authentic Atlantic surf.

Josef ON the lisbon winter season
You think surf is only for summer? Think again
“I came in winter because I wanted to surf bigger waves, and now is the season for bigger waves.”
“I have no reasons to change the school. I’m happy anytime I came here. Good instructors, good conditions and you meet good people.”
