The heart behind Surf Mama

InΓͺs - Founder and Trainer

Surf Mama School was born from a dream β€” and that dream has always lived in the sea and in my heart.
From a very young age, the ocean has been a part of my life. Surfing came into my life early and I never let it go. I grew up with surfing until it became my job and my future. It's not just a lifestyle, but now it's my mission.

Zoey

Zoey, our adorable dog, is a true member of the Surf Mama family. Obsessed with tennis balls and food, she is always ready to greet guests with a wagging tail and a smile. Her friendly spirit brings warmth and joy, making Surf Mama feel even more like home.

HOW WE OPERATE

Our headquarters are located in Peniche, but we adopt a mobile approach. Every day, we move between the beaches of Peniche, Baleal and Ferrel in search of ideal conditions for surfing, adjusting to the specific safety conditions for each level of learning and participant.

1- Customers are advised to go to the location previously indicated by the surf school, as communicated in advance to all those who make reservations via email or Whatsapp. Upon arriving at the agreed point, they will find all the necessary technical equipment (suit, board and leash), with the instructor ready to provide instructions and lead students to the beach for the surf lesson.

2- After the end of the surf lesson, customers must return the technical equipment to the responsible instructor, allowing the school to transport it back to the physical storage location.

We make vans available to our participants, duly equipped to transport passengers and all the technical material necessary for our surfing classes. It is important to note that, in this offer, the customer's transportation to the beach is included, no transportation is provided, it is the customer's responsibility to be present at the beach or at the meeting point previously designated for the activity.
