Cascais is the perfect place to learn how to surf. The town is surrounded by many different types of beaches. The best beginners/intermediate surf beach is Guincho (pronounced Ginchu) 5 km's north west of Cascias town. It's a beautiful kilometre long stretch of beach.
Further north are two excellent beginners beaches Praia das Macas & Praia Grande. They are well worth the trip as they will take you past Cabo da Roca, mainland Europes most Western Point with a pretty impressive cliff top view.
A few hundred metres East of Cascais is Monte Estoril beach which has a small righthand wave that breaks regularly. There is a car park at its base accessed from a slip road above.
Follow the road east of Cascais along the Tagus river (Tejo in Portuguese) towards Lisbon and you will come across beach after beach offering a vast amount of surf: Bica is a great longboarders break on Sao Pedro beach. The beach has a few surf bars and restaurants and is a great place to spend the day.
Closer to Lisbon is Carcavelos beach - as the Stormriders surf guide call it: "the original and still one of the best Portuguese surf spots". Its a very consistent beach break and home to some of Portugals best surfers.
Its also worth taking the trip across the river Tagus to Costa Caparica - driving over the spectacular Ponte 25 de Abril bridge leaving Lisbon behind you. Costa Caprica is a 30 km strip of coast with some of the most consistent surf in Portugal.

We had a great holiday thanks. The apartments are great and we really loved staying there. There were lots of cool little touches and great relaxed feeling. The surf lessons were great too. We really liked the smaller groups and it made it a bit more interesting. The pick up in the morning was great and it gave us the whole day at the beach. We also enjoyed walking it quite a few times. Guincho beaches was great, we didn’t explore the others but will next time. We were very impressed with Cascais itself. Our favourite restaurant was Lucullus in the old town. We went there a few times. We didn't leave the town during the week. just got into lazy relaxed mode. Overall really enjoyable and I have already been recommending this holiday to friends. Keep up the good work!
Vila Bicuda was perfect. Just a couple minute drive to the coast in the morning for a session, then back to enjoy coffee in front a fireplace with real wood! We enjoyed watching some classic VH-1 while lounging on the comfortable couches, which was a treat since we live in Italy without TV. The staff was extremely pleasant and helpful. We would definitely stay there again
We had a great holiday. The area was very nice and not overrun with tourists. Guincho beach was really lovely – we spent the morning surfing and most afternoons came back and sat by the pool. lessons were also great – my husband and son were standing up by the end although I was still struggling, but did not give up. The surf instructors were very nice. We went to Sintra and Lisbon for a day – Lisbon science museum is really recommended for kids. The villa apartments were very nice, extremely well equipped and very comfortable; we loved eating on the terrace in the evening and the kids loved the pool area. We would definitely consider a surfing holiday again, and visiting Cascais again, all the best – Elana, Croyde
We loved our time at Vila Bicuda. Cascais is a beautiful town. The restaurants in the town and at the beach were very good and very good value. The custom of restaurants opening after 7pm took some getting used to. We had lunch on the cliffs in Casa da Guia on the way to Guincho beach. The surf was great, Alex was very patient with us :) Chilling out in the Bar da Guincho in the afternoon was so relaxing and felt like a million miles away! We went to Sintra palace and national park - and to Lisbon (did a tour and I got dragged to a Benfica match) – Sandra and Joe, Dublin
I have to say we had a fantastic time. Everything was either as good as, or better than, we expected. When we arrived at the place our jaws dropped. It is one of the coolest place I have ever been. The relaxed atmosphere was great. The pool were particularly enjoyable. The villa apartment itself was perfect for four people. The transfer service to and from the beach was excellent. The surf lessons were just what I wanted; simple, effective instructions and the freedom to practice them. The fact that I got a smaller board when I started to progress was really great, something I wish surf schools I've been to in Ireland did. After the weeks lessons I feel confident about getting my own gear and exploring the wesht. Bar do Guincho is easily the best beach bar we have ever been to. All in all, I had a fantastic holiday and hope to stay with surfholidays.com again in the future – Simon, North London
Cascais really is an absolutely fantastic spot and we will definitely be back!!! We didn’t actually do an awful lot of surfing as it happened, but wetsuits were purchased and we will definitely be making further attempts to get ourselves surfing over the winter!!! The apartments were very luxurious, much better than we expected for the price we got them. The bars in town was buzzing every night, it was a great laugh. It really was a great holiday & Alex and his gang were very relaxed and helpful with the surf – Melissa, Amy, Sarah, Georgie - Liverpool
