Based in Wales, Gower Surfing is a 4 star British Surfing Association Surf School. Each year it packs up and heads to Portugal in fall and in spring to take advantage of the surfing conditions and warm weather. For surfers of any level, the courses are located in Portugal’s Southwest National Park, an area of striking natural beauty with a huge variety of terrain.

The area is so large that there a number of beaches to pick from depending on the weather or your individual preference. Various packages including couples’ weekends, corporate adventures, small group lessons, and more are all offered in Gower’s Arrifana Surf Camp. Accommodations for surfers is slightly inland, but transport to and from the beach is provided in your package.
