ITINERARY - BRAZIL SURF CAMP

DAY 1: Arrival at our Brazil Surf Camp

Welcome to southern Bahia! We'll pick you up at Ilheus Airport and bring you to your accommodation, an attractive pousada (small, family-run hotel) set in lush gardens that is just meters from the beach. You can relax or explore the lively fishing village, before sitting down to enjoy a delicious 3-course welcome dinner.

DAY 2: Surf & Chill

Today we'll head to the beach for our first full day of surf instruction with expert surf camp coaches. First-timers will have a lesson on the beach before hitting the gentle beginner break. Those who have surfed before can head directly to the peeling surf a little further down the beach. There are a variety of quality breaks and spectacular white-sand beaches within a short walk or drive of your accommodation and you`ll have the chance to experience many of these during our surf camps. In the evening enjoy great seafood & relaxed nightlife in the village.

DAY 3: Surf

Our surf camp continues. This morning we'll head to the beach for another day of surfing instruction. When you're not surfing you can relax your tired muscles in a hammock on the beach, explore the surrounding area, practice capoeira on the beach, chillout in the pool at the pousada, or just enjoy the beautiful surroundings that you're in. This evening, head into the village for another great Brazilian meal.

DAYS 4 & 5: Surf

Today we'll head back to the beach for a full day of surfing instruction. By now we're in a pretty good groove of surfing, relaxing on the beach, and enjoying the lush jungle around us. In the early evenings you can partake in informal workshops (anything from understanding tides and currents to how to deal with potentially dangerous situations) and video coaching sessions.

DAYS 6: Surf

Today we'll head back to the beach for a full day of surfing instruction, but if conditions permit, we'll head out by boat to try deepwater surfing. By now we're in a pretty good groove of surfing, relaxing on the beach, and enjoying the lush jungle around us. In the early evenings you can partake in informal workshops (anything from understanding tides and currents to how to deal with potentially dangerous situations) and video coaching sessions.

DAY 7: Surf

This morning we'll head straight to the beach for a day of surfing and enjoy our last full day on the water.

DAY 8: Brazil Surf Camp Ends

Today we'll pack up and head to Ilheus Airport for our flights home.
