The briefing
Before the boat leaves, your coach talks through the plan, the conditions and what you want from the morning. First-timers learn the basics before they ever touch the water.
On the Water
Coached, not just instructed.
Every session is set to your level, from your first ride to your next trick.
Your level. Your session.
Sessions at a glance
Wake surfing in the Algarve, session by session.
What a session looks like, whatever your level.
- Ride
- Wake surf, wakeboard, foil
- Wake surfing is the signature: ropeless, at low speed, on the boat’s own wave. Wakeboarding adds rope and speed; foiling lifts you above the water. Try one, or all three.
- Levels
- First ride to advanced
- First-timers start holding a rope close to the stern. Intermediate riders work on consistency and confidence; advanced riders bring a goal for the week.
- Coach
- On board every session
- Your coach is in the boat, not on the shore: a word after every run, a plan for the next one and a clear focus for each morning.
- On the boat
- Small groups, everyone aboard
- Riders take turns while the others watch, cheer and learn from the boat. Guests who don’t ride are just as welcome aboard; the week is one package, and every part of it is theirs.
- Review
- Footage after each session
- Sessions are filmed, and the footage goes up on the screen back at the villa, so you see what the coach saw. Your best rides go home with you.
- Gear
- All gear, wetsuits included
- Wake surf boards, wakeboards and foils matched to your level, and life vests in every size. Bring swimwear and sunscreen; the rest is on the boat.
- Boat
- Modern premium wake boat
- Built to shape a clean, steady surf wave, with room to ride, rest and film. The boat is the instrument; the coaching is the point.
- Not riding today?
- The pool, the coast or the town
- Skip a session whenever you like: the pool, Praia Dona Ana below the cliffs, the old town’s cafés, or a massage at the villa.

Three ways to ride
First light on the water.
The boat leaves at about 7:00 AM for the bay off Meia Praia, while the bay is usually at its calmest, and you’re back at the villa by late morning, hungry. Pick the board that suits you, or try all three across the week. Wake surfing is the signature, and the gentlest place to begin.
- Wake surfRopeless on the boat’s wave. The easiest place to start.
- WakeboardBindings, rope and speed. First starts to clean jumps.
- FoilLift above the water and glide.
Video review
Watch it back. Ride it better.
After each session, review the footage with your coach and pick one thing to work on next time out.
- First-timers. Your first ride, at your pace.
- Improving. Cleaner turns, longer rides.
- Advanced. New tricks and setups.
Good to know
Safety comes first.
We plan every session around wind, tide and the conditions on the day. We never promise perfect weather. When the sea says no, the day pivots to the coast, the pool or the town.

How a session works
From briefing to playback.
Mornings on the water follow a simple shape, so all your attention can go to the riding.
On the water
Riders take turns behind the boat while the others watch, cheer and pick things up. The coach stays on board, with a word after every run.
The playback
Back at the villa, the footage goes on the screen. You see what the coach saw, and leave with one clear thing to try next time out.
Every level
First ride, next trick.
The coach pitches every session to the person on the board.
Your first ride
Wake surfing is a gentle first ride, close to the boat, with a coach beside you and nothing to prove.
Finding your edge
Intermediate riders work on the details: stance, timing, how to ask the wave for a little more.
The next trick
Experienced riders get honest feedback and time on the wake to try what is next.
Playback together
The best part of a session is the replay.
Back at the villa the screen comes on and the morning plays again. The boat is set up for filming, so your coach can pause on the moment the board lifted, point to where your weight went, and the room leans in. Someone cheers a landing they didn’t see happen. It is part lesson, part storytelling, and the reason every session counts twice.
