POSIZIONE E ARRIVO

POSIZIONE

Il Surf

Surf in Algarve

 

La punta sud-occidentale dell’Algarve è un tratto selvaggio e poco affollato di costa, che è tuttavia solo a pochi minuti di macchina dalle famose località di Lagos e Sagres, entrambe caratterizzate da una vivace vita notturna. Si tratta di una destinazione per il surf senza rivali in Europa e in un certo modo unica al mondo per la possibilità che offre di sperimentare un genuino approccio ad uno stile di vita basato sul surf. Molti Surf Camps!! La costa occidentale dell’Algarve è una delle principali destinazioni surfistiche per i surfisti seri di tutto il mondo, in quanto le lunghe onde atlantiche che frangono sulle spiagge della costa ovest offrono condizioni ideali per il surf. Le dimensioni e la qualità delle onde variano da medie ad assolutamente epiche, con un assortimento completo di reef e beach break.

 

L’Algarve è anche la regione più calda del Portogallo e la più turistica, con una scena notturna molto vivace e decine di attrazioni. Mentre farete surf sarete circondati da uno scenario mozzafiato, con ripide scogliere dal tipico colore rossastro, ampie spiagge sabbiose e nessuno sviluppo immobiliare o località balneare a deturparne la vista. L’intera area è protetta ed é parte del Parco Naturale della Costa Vicentina. L’accesso alle spiagge è tramite strade sterrate che si insinuano in un paesaggio spettacolare.

 

Considerato da molti surfisti come il grande segreto nascosto per il surf in Europa, tanto per i principianti che per gli esperti, l’Algarve occidentale possiede cieli azzurri, acque cristalline e onde poco affollate. Grazie alla sua unica posizione di capo più sud-occidentale d’Europa, Sagres gode il meglio di entrambe le coste dell’Algarve, la meridionale e l’occidentale e può sempre fornire una valida alternativa per il surf, a seconda delle onde, a meno di trenta minuti d’auto.

 

La costa occidentale riceve onde da nord e da sud-est tutto l’anno e offre una varietà di point break, per lo più sabbiosi. La costa sud riceve onde da sud e onde di grandi dimensioni da ovest. Questa regione non è famosa solo per le sue bellezze naturali, ma anche per la qualità, la perfezione e la costanza delle sue onde durante l’inverno.

 

Le Stagioni del Surf

Estate

 

Da maggio a ottobre, quando le onde sono più piccole, gli istruttori di surf vi porteranno presso una delle spiagge della costa occidentale, di solito, beach break.

 

Inverno-Primavera

 

Da ottobre a maggio, quando le onde sono più grandi, fare surf implica andare in macchina all’avventura e alla ricerca delle onde adatte, cecando la dimensione giusta anche sulla costa meridionale! Reef Break e spot segreti… In questa stagione, i Surfari, ossia le gite surfistiche, rivolte a principianti, intermedi ed esperti, sono molto interessanti; sarete in grado di esplorare numerose spiagge diverse lungo tutta la costa sud da Sagres a Lagos. Anche se la costa ovest può essere il massimo, ci sono delle belle spiagge sulla costa sud che hanno point break perfetti con stupende onde di grandi dimensioni. La maggior parte di questi spot sono impossibili da individuare senza la vostra surf guide!

 

Algarve

L’Algarve è situata nella parte più meridionale del Portogallo, che si estende lungo l’Atlantico tra il confine spagnolo e Cabo Sao Vicente, il punto più a sud-ovest d’Europa. E’ stato l’ultimo territorio della penisola iberica ad essere riconquistato dai Mori nel 1292, e la loro presenza è ancora visibile nell’architettura della regione, caratterizzata dalle sue case bianche edificate su terra rossa ed il verde a fare da sfondo naturale. Protetta dai venti del nord dalla catena montuosa dei Monchique ed esposta a sud, l’Algarve gode di un clima mite durante l’intero anno, così l’ambiente naturale è ricco di colori vivaci ed estremamente fertile, con distese di aranceti, fichi e mandorli. La costa sud è formata da una lunga distesa di spiagge favolose, interrotte solamente da imponenti scogliere rossastre. La costa ovest è più frastagliata e il mare più aspro: vi sono una serie di calette solitarie e spiagge accessibili tramite sentieri in terra battuta.

 

Faro, capitale dell’Algarve, gode di una posizione centrale sulla costa; il centro storico presenta molti monumenti, tra cui le mura medievali. Più a ovest, Lagos è una famosa meta turistica, situata sulle rive di un estuario; la sua zona più antica è racchiusa all’interno delle mura XV secolo. Lagos è la capitale dei party dell’Algarve con un sacco di Ozzies, neozelandesi, canadesi e americani che passano il tempo a saltare da un bar all’altro. Anche la piccola città di Monchique e il suo famoso centro termale meritano una visita: Monchique è incastonata nella catena montuosa della Serra de Monchique, il cui punto più alto è a circa 1.000 metri

 

sul livello del mare e offre una splendida vista panoramica dell’Algarve in direzione dell’Atlantico.

 

Sagres si trova all’estremità occidentale dell’Algarve, accanto a Cabo Sao Vicente. Qui cinquecento anni fa il principe Henrique fondò la scuola di navigazione che ha svolto un ruolo fondamentale nelle scoperte geografiche dei Portoghesi. La città ha una magnifica fortezza costruita nel XIV secolo, il cui gioiello è una rosa dei venti gigante, grande 43 metri. La fortezza di Cabo Sao Vicente è piazzata sulle alte scogliere che fronteggiano l’Atlantico; fu costruita sul sito dell’originario “Promontorium Sacrum” romano, un luogo sacro, appunto, perché i romani credevano che il promontorio segnasse la fine del mondo, essendo il punto più sud-occidentale d’Europa.

 

Clima

Atlantico/Mediterraneo, con inverni miti ed estati calde. A causa della sua posizione esposta su una penisola, la regione gode tutto l’anno di eccellenti condizioni di onde e vento per la pratica del surf o kitesurf.

 

Alcuin spot famosi

Praia do Amado (Ovest): uno dei più famosi spot per il surf. Grande spiaggia di sabbia con dune, ideale per i principianti – qui è dove molte scuole di surf locali tengono le loro lezioni. Mantenere una distanza minima di due metri. Rispettare i locals!

 

Vale Figueiras (Ovest): Quando ci sono le secche è di gran lunga il migliore beach break in Algarve. Si tratta di un’immensa spiaggia che va da Arrifana a Bordeira.

 

Carrapateira/Bordeira (Ovest): Adiacente alla Praia do Amado è un surf spot con uno splendido fondale sabbioso, accessibile passando attraverso una laguna circondata da dune. Perfetto per i principianti, ma attenzione alla corrente. Le onde sinistre quando ci sono le secche sono grandiose!

 

Arrifana (Ovest): A nord di Carrapateira, si trova questo panoramico surf spot con una spiaggia impreziosita da un’alta scogliera, sopra cui si erge un pittoresco villaggio imbiancato. Beach break le cui dimensioni sono circa la metà rispetto alle altre spiagge della costa ovest – buono per quando le onde negli altri spot sono troppo alte. A destra della spiaggia c’è un soddisfacente reef break, una buona onda destra, che però si rompe solo con onde alte almeno un metro e mezzo. Attenzione agli scogli “hamburger” e “Kangaroo”. Solo per i kamikaze!

 

Sagres (Ovest/Sud): il punto più sud-occidentale d’Europa, questa penisola è circondata dall’Atlantico a sud e a ovest, e presenta numerosi spot e opzioni per il surf in base alle condizioni delle onde. Rispettate i locals!

 

Meia Praia (Lagos), Portimao e Faro (Costa Sud): Sulla costa meridionale dell’Algarve. Surf spot con buoni break che offrono una valida alternativa alla costa occidentale quando lungo quella costa le onde sono troppo grandi, oppure quando soffia il vento di sud-est, il Levante.

Great surf camp

"I had really fun. Thank you Nomad Surfers and all staff from the camp to provide great experience!"

Everything was great!

"Food: 8, I don’t put 10 because I think the only think that could improve is instead of giving so much plastic containers of one use for the lunches they could give us a taperware package to reuse everyday so we don’t waste so much plastic. Also instead of plastic bottles everyday they can give refilling bottles. Each person can pay a deposit to be given back once they’re stay has completed for example or in case they lost it or gets broken. Accommodation: 10 Surf Coaching: 10 Other Activities: maybe they can offer more activities however I was too exhausted from surfing for anything else In general I was so happy and I am planning to come back next year for sure!"

Absolutely amazing

"The camp was absolutely amazing and I will 100% visit again! The staff were all helpful and friendly. The couches were extremely professional, the vibes at the camp is peaceful and delightful. Food was delicious. Everything is perfect there!"

That was a great trip

"In general : Algarve Surf Camp & team are highly recommendable ! They are super nice people, and the location is fantastic. Food: cooked with heart ! So very nice. Simple but tasty. Very generous breakfast ! Lunch packs a bit light for the teens (they stole some bananas & muffins on the breakfast buffet...) Accommodation: Great. Especially as we had our own room. Very clean. Surf Coaching: Super super nice. Everybody of our group finally surfed and all of us were able to stand up on the board by the end of the week, although very (too) big waves and not specific sportive background nor preparation :) Other Activities: super nice yoga teacher. Very good Mojitos :))"

We had a great stay

Very nice people, flexible, human and who go out of their way to give a pleasant experience to their guests. All in all a great and unique experience. We all want to come back. Food: Excellent and varied. Accommodation: Good. One comment : the rooms are a little humid at times. Surf Coaching: Excellent, the instructors were competent, really nice and always encouraging. Everybody in our group made progress. A big thumbs up to the coaches. Other Activities: The camp is well equipped, with a pool, a skate ring, billiard and various other games.

Expérience is good value for money

"I had a great time ! I even surfed which wasn’t planned ! The place is amazing : quiet atmosphere, astonishing view, nice house, beautiful beach. The whole team is really nice and make each guest feel spécial and at home, especially the surf instructors. They are very patient, and cautious, and with a good pedagogic approach. They cheer everybody, especially the kids, and they love it ! The food is nice, and the overall expérience is good value for money. A few things to improve could be : there is too much plastic in the packed lunch or at breakfast (Butter, Jam, food container, etc). Nomad surfers Water bottle could be Given to every guests to avoid all the plastic bottles, we could pay for it in the total budget. the towels are a bit old the yoga teacher didn’t show up at 1 lesson at 8 am without warning us so we woke up early for nothing. But globally we all love it and will advise around us to go there, and why not even come back ! And thank you for your flexibility as my booking process was a bit erratic !"

Amazing place!

"I have been there for a week, the place is amazing, quiet and beautiful. Russo and Tonya are so friendly and thoughtful. Also the beaches couldn't be better. I have enjoyed the surf lessons very much, I recommend everyone to go there!"

Amazing

"I loved everything. Great staff, atmosphere and great food. I am coming back next year"

Superb

"An amazing family environment with dedicate and passionate instructors. Great week, will definitely come back again."

Simply amazing place to spend your holiday surfing

"Everything just PERFECT and GREAT, I really had a great time and enjoyed it. The place is really nice located in the national part. In the surfing camp, everything was perfect food delicious, accommodation nice and clean, surfing lessons great."

Surf, eat, sleep...repeat

"I've just spend a week in Nomad Vale Figueiras and it was a pretty good experience overall, The staff is very friendly and helpfull, the food is quiet good and the camp is located very close to one of the best surf break around (few people, good waves, rights and left breaking over sand and/or smooth rock bottom). The bed (bungalow) i've had could have been a bit more comfortable though and you better like dogs since there's a bunch of them (but chill ones) around the place! Good place to go with kids altough! Go for it"

Highly recommendable!

"Highly recommendable experience, Russo and his team do an amazing job in combining a great number of elements to make a remarkable experience for their students. The teachers are very educational and patient, the location is amazing, the waves and the beach are sublime, the atmosphere is fun and relaxing, the food exceeded my expectations in terms of quality and quantity, the sleeping area was sufficiently comfortable on the low budget option I chose, I suppose even better on the higher end accomodation option. They really make every effort to make their guests feel welcomed and cared for. All in all, a place to go back to. That was my experience and also I didn't meet any other people taking the lessons complaining about anything about their experience... it's nice to see that there are still places on earth where experience satisfaction can be achieved at reasonable prices. Well done team!"

Awesome!

"I really enjoyed my stay at Nomad Surfers, it's a little tricky to get there with the public transport, so I would definitely recommend renting a cheap car at the airport, but once you're there it's great, the crew are really friendly and accommodating, the food is great and the bungalows are perfect. The surf lessons for the intermediates include video feedback and the instructors are very good. I will definitely be coming back, and I will always recommend this camp to anyone who wants to learn to surf in the Algarve!"

Amazing!

"Tonya, Russo, Maria, Irina, Ana, Luis Miguel, and Luis are amazing people, here at Vale Figueiras.They opened their house, were very welcoming, dragged us to really cool places, gave us so many advices and hints about how to surf, were very accomadating, and were contributed to have such good vibes in the camp.We met really cool people there, all having different journeys, road trips, expériences, but whatever. We shared the same will about being in a really relaxing place with some great people, and having surf."

Fall holidays

"We spend a really nice time at Vale Figueiras Nomad Surf Resort. We choose to be out of the touristic season and we found a really quiet place, isolated in the Algarve Nature.The family running the resort was really nice to us, they opened their space as if it was ours. We have some great surf conditions, and we were changing of spot according to the swell and wind.The place is adapted for a family, and the owners have made us discover local food specialty and places too.This was a very good trip !"

The best surf camp ever!!

""It's not just a surf experience but a life one. I have been going overthere every year for the last 8 years and I will keep doing it. It feels like home. Russo and his staff are proffessionals adapted for every level. They teach you since the very beggining including not only technique but also safety rules very important at that point. If you are already an intermediate or an advanced surfer you will also enjoy with tips and tours to show you the best spots. Great spot that will make you think you are in paradise!""

The perfect Surfcamp

"I stayed for one week in Vale Figueiras Surfcamp and it was a perfect stay. Everyone is so kind, it was really cozy in the camp, I had a lot of fun. Breakfast was great, there was everything one needs, fruits, joghurt, cereals, eggs, bread etcetc. Big lunchpackets everyday and perfect self cooked dinner, alway healthy an delicious.I was really glad about the average age beeing about 28.There was the possibility to party, too.There was really nothing I could complain about!"

Excellent Surf Camp!!

"My 13 year old son and I had an excellent 4 night 3 day surfing experience. Hosts are fantastic people! Staff is also made up of very cool and laid back Surfers. Food was absolutely excellent and plenty. They really go all out for the best food for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Also, unexpected yet very appreciated, is my portion of surfing instruction was subtracted from the balance because on the first day I had a freak accident and injured my foot so I couldn't surf. They also offered to drive me to the doctor, which was very nice but unnecessary. Best part is after 3 days my son was really surfing and safe to say he has the 'surfing bug' and he can't wait until our next surfing holiday! :) We would very much like to return in the Spring!!"

Incredible / Increíble

"It is a bit difficult to arrive to the place but once you are there, the climate is amazing. Everybody is really polite and light hearted. Even though neither my colleges nor me had any idea about surf, the monitors are really good teachers and they were able to teach us in one day. It is really easy to learn with their help. Additionally, the surf camp is incredible with lots of activities to spend time in the evening having fun with new friends. By the way, the breakfast is unique. Really recommendable.La ubicación es un poco difícil de encontrar, pero en cuanto llegas, todo es increíble. Todo el mundo es super educado y muy buena gente. A pesar de que ni mis amigos ni yo sabíamos nada de surf, los monitores nos enseñaros en apenas un día a coger las olas. Es muy fácil aprender con ellos. Además, el campamento en sí es increíble con muchas actividades para pasar el tiempo por la tarde o noche con nuevos amigos. Por cierto, el desayuno es único. Totalmente recomendable"

Best secluded surf in Europe brought to you intimately by local family!

"Best nature experience in Algarve with world class waves ranging from beginners breaks to full on high walled barrels peeling clay on generous off shore breeze days!!! The evening meals plush breakfast and well organized social events offer everything a holiday could want. Best deal and experience in the Algarve ! Can fully enjoy it all without a car too!! Bring your appetite and lust for surf! You won't leave disappointed! Most people extend the visit if space permits. Slept well, even in a 10 bed dorm!"

Veramente fantastico!

"Ambiente familiare e amichevole dove si viene subito coinvolti nella quotidianità della casa. Immerso nella natura e distante dalla confusione e dal trambusto cittadino è un posto che invita al relax totale, con sistemazioni semplici, ma non per questo poco curate. Lo staff è molto disponibile e cordiale, propositivo, ma il tutto viene svolto con le giusta calma che caratterizza questi posti, senza troppa frenesia. Anche il cibo è ottimo, casereccio, ma buono. Insomma, dopo il breve periodo trascorso qui, ho avuto difficoltà ad andarmene!"

Amazing holiday

"From the first moment you arrive in this camp you will find yourself surrounded by a deliscious familiar ambient. This is a lovely place full of amazing people that will make you feel like at home and it's the perfect place to start learning how to surf too because all the numerous instructors are friendly and very well prepared! In here you will also find again the connection with your body and the nature that surrounds everything. Good vibes only. It has been my first experience in a surf house and, after this one,I will surely have other experiences like this in the future!

The surf teachers were super nice, knew what they were talking about and really took the time to teach you stuff.

Great location of the camp as well: in the middle of nowhere, so very quiet and at night an awesome view on the stars. Cannot wait to go back."

Best surf experience and memory

"Stayed end of May to begging of Jun 2017, Intermediate class as I have an experience. How surf camp placement of classes and lesson is very defined. Beginner class people is able to learn a basic logic and how to take off and cares a lot for safety, Intermediate is able learn the correct position, how to lead a wave, get out by using current for ex. and it was really valuable moment for me. All stuff, instructor are very nice and enjoyed meeting people from lot's of countries, having a BBQ, try get more skill to catch the wave together. It's unforgettable. It was so great."

Review

"The location is great, in the middle of nature is perfect for a relaxing vacation. People are also very friendly. I didn't like it that wasn't water in the pool and it was a facility that I paid for. Also the fact that I could drink tea or coffee only at the breakfast was something that I didn't appreciate. Overall I spent a really good time and thank you for this!"

Excellent surf experience at Nomad

"I had an amazing 4 days surfing with Nomad. Good communication during the booking process and leading up to arrival. Although it is pretty much a remote place in the countryside in Algarve, it is easy to find it. The place allows you to really focus only on your surfing. The accommodation and the rooms were exactly as described, nothing fancy but clean, comfortable and with everything you need. The surf school is well run and I cannot rate the quality of the instructors highly enough and the kindness our the whole team at the camp. We arrived as complete beginners and 1 of us was advanced. After 4 days, everyone was standing having fun surfing, the advanced friend is even more advanced^^. The attention and fun we received from our instructors was outstanding. Thank you again for this memorable surfing experience. We cannot wait to go back and visit all of you! CHEERS!"

Great camp

"I had the best time at Nomad. It's my second time and I plan to come more often. I stayed at the house with my own bathroom. But you can also stay at the camp. Food is fresh and good and there is a friendly welcoming ambiance."

Kate

"I went by myself in May 2017. I was a bit afraid of going somewhere by myself but it was totally awesome. There was no time to worry about it we spent most of the day at the beach and after the dinner I was so exhausted that I just went to bed. I was lucky that the camp was almost empty at this time so I got my personal surf instructor. It was my second time trying surfing and it was really great, I improved a lot during one week. Definitely recommending it. When I'll go there for the next time I would probably stay in Resort not the Surf Camp, however, that was not a problem at all."

Recommanded

"If you like surfing the best waves of the day don't mind eating the superb local food, and staying with true local experts, go there"

Got it all

"Centred bang in the middle of a national park, surrounded by rolling hills and pine forests and no more than a 5 minute drive to a cracking surf beach. As if this isn't enough, the nomad surf camp is welcoming, clean, chilled (when we weren't partying) and run by 2 of the planet's loveliest people Russo and Tonia. It doesn't end there either, the food was delicious and plentiful and the cherry on top was that the surf instructors are the best I've come across. I learnt more in 3 days than I have in 15 years of self teaching. We're definitely coming back!"

The camp was clean and can highly recommend it.

The teaching was professional, progressive, motivational, methodical and fun

"Hi Jose I would just like to share our feedback on our summer camp in Portugal. It was out first ever surf camp and went in somewhat blind and I followed your judgement and was happy I did so. We really had a great, great time. The house with our private bathroom was perfect and exactly to our taste and liking as a family, (the camp’s main house wouldn’t have been right for us) the food was wonderful but mostly it was the teaching and the teachers. The teaching was professional, progressive, motivational, methodical and fun, really good and exactly what I was wanting as any prior teaching I’d had had all been too lose and random. All the teachers were all so nice and the vibe was perfect and we were so touched at how they were all with our son leo, he caught his first big wave under their great judgement, really cool and inspiring. I wonder wether it would be at all possible if you could pass on a message to Sonia, one of the teachers, I never got to say a big thank you for everything and a goodbye from us. Once again the surf camp was brilliant and we will only have good things to say about Nomad Surfers, we are even thinking about going to your Bali surf camp. Best of wishes”"

Una experiencia inolvidable

"Ha sido una experiencia inolvidable. Si hablase de hacer surf como deporte, os diría que el sitio es magnífico, la situación al lado de la playa y los monitores son buenísimos. Son gente que viven para esto, disfrutan haciéndolo y los conocimientos que tienen se notan que han sido adquiridos de muchos años de experiencia... es su pasión. Pero yo voy más allá...era mi primera vez que hacía surf, no tenía ni idea, ni siquiera sabía si me iba a gustar...pero todo eso dá igual...la mayoría está en las mismas condiciones, se trata de una experiencia de un grupo de gente que convive una semana, unos viajan solos, otros con un amigo..españoles, franceses e italianos son la mayoría...no es el típico sítio donde aparece un grupo de amigos de 21 años de la universidad....la media de edad y sobretodo la media cultural es mucho mayor(por lo general es gente que ha viajado bastante y busca experiencias nuevas) Si estas solo o con un par de amigos como mucho, recomiendo este sitio...vais a vivir una experiencia única con un grupo de gente magnifico, todo muy bien organizado, unas playas increibles, las instalaciones son preciosas y totalmente equipadas. Espero que esta opinión ayude a gente a dar el paso."

"Dear all, It has taken a while to get back to reality here in Switzerland. Since we left a couple of weeks ago we haven't stopped thinking of you all and the surfcamp. We wanted to let you know that we spent a fantastic Holiday, we enjoyed the quietness, the simplicity, the authenticity, the good food, the region, the great surf lessons (many thanks to Peter! you gave me such incredible tips that I need to learn further...), and the support and attention from you all with our both girls Marine and Amara. Believe me you all, you live in a little paradise, we already miss it. We were so well taken car of from the pick up in Lagos by Luis, to the drop off in Lagos, by... Luis.. again the day of our departure. Russo, Tonya, Luis, Eduardo, Pedro, Peter, Maria, Giusepedro, Julie, and all staff, cheers! Well, in short: A BIG THANK YOU FOR WELCOMING US AND FOR THE GOOD ENERGY FROM ALL OF YOU! WE SPENT SUCH A FANTASTIC WEEK THAT WE WILL NEVER FORGET! Matthieu, Daniela, Marine, Amara St Légier La Chiésaz Switzerland"
