SURF FOR KIDS

We promote the growth of children outdoors and in permanent contact with nature and the sea.

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.

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.
