SURF SCHOOL FOR CHILDREN
Surf School for children, from 6 to 14 years old, with various activities to fill the free time.
These activities are a way to enhance the kids development, stimulating their abilities while providing them with moments of fun and mutual help. The contact with nature, during our walks through the Serra de Sintra, and the practice of sports in the sea, such as Surfing or Stand up Paddle, contribute to the health and well-beeing of children.
SURF LESSONS FOR CHILDREN
Surf lessons for children separated into age groups and surf levels
With one surf instructor for every 4 children, we distinguish the initiation lessons from the intermediate lessons.
Initiation Classes
For students who have never practiced surfing, the main objectives are to get acclimated to the maritime environment and gain basic notions of surfing (such as gaining balance on the board, paddling and standing up on the board).
Intermediate Lessons
For students with some surfing experience, the goals are to increase and improve knowledge and techniques. Here we teach you how to make the first maneuvers and choose waves and peaks, as well as how to make an assessment of the sea safely and according to the “rules” in surfing.
Fun, Nature and Learning in a Safe Environment
At our surf school, kids enjoy a fun, safe, and memorable experience. Designed for children aged 6 and up to 14 years old, our bilingual surf weeks for children combine surf lessons with healthy and educational activities in a warm and welcoming setting.

SURFING AND ACTIVITIES FOR CHILDREN
At Moby Dick we aim to provide surfing experiences and other enjoyable and memorable activities for children.
In addition to the surf lessons, we bet on diversity and outdoor walks or playful group activities such as board games, ping pong, balance board and slackline. Activities for children are organized from week to week, according to weather and sea conditions.
Since surfing is the primary activity, we act responsibly and consciously to provide fun moments and in total safety. Thus, parents will be informed of the weekly plan at the beginning of the week and the more detailed daily plan every day.
