ONE WEEK

IMMERSED
IN NATURE

Close to the surfing beaches of Arrifana and Monte Clerigo, the eco-glamping is on the quiet and natural west coast of the Algarve. Comfort, right in the middle of a Natural Reserve.

Spend a week surfing long sandy beaches and discovering the beautiful Costa Vicentina. Sleep under the trees, reconnect with nature and make surf friends for a lifetime.

Surf the waves of the Costa Vicentina

All along the southwest coast of Portugal there is high potential for good, uncrowded waves for all levels.

Summer rarely goes flat and often gets consistent waves, especially in the lead up to the beginning of Autumn. The south coast offers perfect shelter with offshore winds and a filtered swell although it is usually flat in summer.

GLAMPING IN NATURE

The heart of this surf adventure is the glamping site. Simple and light accommodations, with all the comforts you need. Surrounded by the Acacia trees and in the middle of the Southwest Alentejo and Costa Vicentina Natural Park, falling asleep has never been this great.

During your week you can decide to stay in comfortable tents with raised beds and electric plugs, a treehouse hidden in the trees, a cozy magic van, in a secluded cabana or a rustic Portuguese home.

Spend your evenings at the camp cooking dinner all together in the shared kitchen, showering in the hot showers while seeing the trees around you; spend your days in nature, sharing food and good times with friends, playing music and watching the stars.

5 minutes drive from the famous surf spots of Arrifana and Monte Clérigo the glamping site is the perfect starting point for our surf explorations. Starting straight from the Glamping you will also be able to take various incredible hikes along the Costa Vicentina cliffs.
