Important Info

• Once we have fixed a date that you are coming, we have your flight details and have confirmed availability, we hold the room, you are booked and ready for your Surf Experience!

• Payment will be arranged on arrival, sorry no credit cards. Paying in euros when you get here is fine. A number of cash machines are available.

• As insurance we ask for your address and telephone number in good faith, as a form of deposit.

• There will be a charge of 60% of the total holiday price if you cancel within 3 weeks of your arrival and 80% within 2 weeks. Its best to have insurance in case you book then cannot come.

FOR TRANSFERS

• We have a new agent for transfer Lagos - Faro - Lagos :

REFLEX

At arrivals they will have a card with client's name. They drop you of at Vila Catarina or Vila Maravista (our self-catering villa) and can take boards!

  Transfer to VILA CATARINA (Surf Camp) - each way Transfer to VILA MARAVISTA (Self-Cater) - each way
1 Person €30 €25
2 People €60 €50
3 People €75 €60
4 People or more €90 €80

Price is €15 extra with a board. This price is for day time from 6.00 morning till 22.00 evening. From 22.00 till 6.00 it is 80% more. The transfer will be paid with us!

• If your flight is delayed please call the camp and let as know as soon as you can. especially in the evening! (+351 282 760 964)

• Alternatively there is a train and a bus that runs from Faro to Lagos throughout the day, both stations are a short bus ride from the airport. These are cheaper options, but takes much longer to get here, around 2 and a half hours!

• Once at Lagos train or bus station give us a call (+351 282 760964) and if we aren't at the beach already we will come and collect you. Otherwise a ride in a taxi to villa Catarina Funchal, around 7 euros will get you here from the train or bus station.

• A taxi all the way from the airport is also an option but is very expensive.

• If you should arrive in Lisbon or Seville instead of Faro airport, it will be easy to book a rental car. In Portugal rental cars are quite cheap. Please consider that you will hardly need a car while staying with us and if it does pay off to rent a car for your whole stay. Cheap rental cars you can find here:
