Praia da Tocha Family surf camp - Near Porto, Cantanhede. Portugal
INTRODUCTION
Welcome to our little family! We’re creating unique holiday experiences for families. Here, kids can be kids and parents can find quality time for themselves.
We are a small family surf camp founded by friends from all over the world. Our home provides us with everything we need to create a unique surf camp experience for families.
We’re located on a fully set-up campsite with sanitary facilities, swimming pool, a café/bar and a playground, which are free to use for all of our guests.
We’re located directly by the little sea side town Praia da Tocha, which offers you restaurants, bars, ice cream parlours and many more possibilities to dive into genuine Portuguese culture!
Surfing for the whole family!
As soon as your kids know how to swim, they can learn to catch their first waves with us. The kids and teens lessons are held in small groups so children can have fun whilst learning the basics of safety in the ocean.
Meanwhile, parents of all levels can catch their own waves with the guidance of our qualified surf instructors. The nanny service during the adult surf and yoga lessons is included in your stay.

LOCATION & GETTING HERE
LOCATION
Our surf camp is based in the beautiful little fishing town Praia da Tocha in Portugal Centro. Tocha is hidden in the middle of pine forests directly by the beach and is part of the 297km long Coastline between Aveiro and Peniche with some of the best waves in Europe. Here you’ll find long stretches of uncrowded beaches mixed with some genuine Portuguese culture and traditional architecture.
Getting Here
If you’re travelling by public transport, take the metro or the bus to Aveiro. From there you can either grab another bus to Tocha (leaves only once a day at 17 o’clock) or get an Uber.
We offer free shuttles from Tocha to the surf camp, just let us know your planned arrival time and we’ll arrange the rest for you!
If you rather want to take a taxi from the airport to the surf camp, the costs are ~100 € per car.
