ocean-front surf house and surf school

Ferrel Surf House is a local and family-owned surf camp in Peniche, Portugal. We are located 50 meters across the beach of Baleal. Spotting the horizon and endless beaches from your bedroom is a scenery you won’t forget. Instead of huge commercial groups we enjoy the familiar vibe of our surf community. Therefore our surf house is perfect for solo-travellers, couples, groups and surfers of all levels.



Our core values:

  • Feeling Home: Team work makes the dream work. We love to hear our guests cheering each other up in the group lessons and sharing your surf experience at the breakfast table. That is why creating a space where you feel part of our Surf House community is so important for us.

  • Fun & Safety: Rule number one is your fun during your stay with us. Surfing can be exhausting but that is why our coaches are there for you. We adapt to your personal needs to ensure you having a great time with us.

  • Individual Surf Training: Every day the ocean is different and so is the levels of our surf students. That is why we take you to different surf spots according to your needs and experiences.

WHY OUR SURFSCHOOL?

When it comes to surfing, it's important to understand the basics before practicing anything else. So when you come to us, we make sure to clear the basic steps of surfing before doing anything else. This will also help you gain confidence and improve even further as we try the next steps. Our instructors are always in the water with you, whether you are a beginner or intermediate.

 

OUR CLIENTS ABOUT THE SURFHOUSE

We have been coming to Rui to surf every year since 2014. There is no better coaching team! The place is perfect for surfing and Rui checks every morning before the course to see where the best waves are. There is a very familiar atmosphere and the surfing groups are always small. We are already looking forward to next year ☆☆☆☆☆

Great surf school. The instructors are doing everything possible to have both safe and fun lessons. The spots are selected based on student's abilities. Instructors provide quality feedback during session and after it. Video analysis is also super helpful! Totally recommended! ☆☆☆☆☆

I had a very nice week at Ferrel Surf House. This is really about teaching how to surf. The instructors are very competent and will teach you how to surf while having a lot of fun. The rooms were super clean. Breakfast was available every morning, was very tasty and was completely sufficient. You can store and cook your food in the shared kitchen. ☆☆☆☆☆

It’s been my 3rd time in Ferrel Surf School over the last 1.5 years, and I will keep coming back. First and the most important for me was learning to surf. That’s why the qualification and approach were on my top list when choosing the surf school. ☆☆☆☆☆
