Surf Retreat Portugal | February 13–20, April 24–May 1 & June 5–12, 2026
Mayla Surf House, Praia da Amoreira – Algarve, Portugal
When people think about a surf retreat, they often imagine a simple surf holiday: waves, boards, and sessions in the water.
At Mayla Surf House, our idea of a Surf Retreat in Portugal goes beyond that.
This is not just about surfing more — it’s about surfing better, with more awareness, progression, and connection.
More Than a Classic Surf Holiday
Our surf retreats are built around a balanced experience that combines:
-
Surf coaching and progression in the water
-
Surf mobility and body preparation
-
Shared experiences on and off the beach
The goal is to create the right conditions for improvement, without pressure and without rushing.
Each day starts with the ocean and ends with connection — with yourself, the group, and the place you are in.
Who Are Our Surf Retreats For?
Our retreats are suitable for:
-
Beginner and intermediate surfers
-
Men and women of all ages
-
Surf travelers who want to improve their technique
-
People looking for a relaxed, authentic surf experience in Portugal
Small groups allow us to adapt the coaching to each participant’s level and needs, creating a supportive and friendly environment.
What Makes a Surf Retreat Different?
Unlike a standard surf camp, a surf retreat focuses on quality over quantity.
We take time to analyze conditions, choose the right surf spots, and work on technique, flow, and confidence.
Outside the water, surf mobility sessions and video analysis help participants understand their bodies and movements better, supporting long-term progression.
Surf Retreat Portugal – The Algarve Experience
The Algarve is one of Europe’s most consistent surf regions, offering a wide variety of waves and natural landscapes.
This flexibility allows us to surf the best conditions each day while enjoying a calm and inspiring environment.
It’s the perfect place for a Surf Retreat in Portugal focused on progression, balance, and connection with the ocean.
