Location

Santa Cruz (google: Praia de Santa Cruz) is a small town overlooking the miles-long coast of the Atlantic. Located 50 km to the north of Lisbon, this enchanting corner still remains hidden from mass tourism. What does this mean? A coffee under 1€. Enough place for your beach towel. Surfing without a crowd of 100 people. A chance to meet locals in a natural habitat and listen to the melody of the Portuguese language.

 

And, of course, THESE views.

Accommodation

We will stay at a family-owned Surfcamp 360, which is far more than just a lovely house. It is a place where genuine hospitality and human warmth find their way through every detail.

 

The house with charming views of the valley boasts a fruit garden, an on-site bar and an open terrace for chillaxing gatherings. There is also a fully-equipped kitchen, where you can prepare your own meals.

 

We are totally in love with this place because here you get an authentic, living a la Portuguese feeling without compromising on conveniences, like a hot shower and free Wi-Fi.

Yoga

We are happy to offer you 2 yoga classes during the Longboard Weekend in Santa Cruz. It is a valuable activity that will not only help to boost your performance on a board but also bring a pleasant relaxation and stretching following your skate and surf sessions.

 

Our yoga instructors will be building their practice around the needs of skaters: preparation, balance, mobility, flexibility, breathing etc. The purpose of yoga during the weekend is to support you in the camp´s activities, so these will be general, open to every level sessions.

Exploring Santa Cruz

On our free time we will experience Praia de Santa Cruz together and disconnect from your everyday.
