Surfing:
Mit den beiden Surf-Lehrern sind wir jeden Tag mit einem Kleinbus zu den besten Surf-Spots gefahren. Die beiden waren sehr nett und es herrschte eine lockere Stimmung. Wir haben in der Woche viel gelernt!
Other (e.g. surroundings, nightlife etc.):
In dem gebuchten Paket war neben den Surfstunden und der Unterkunft ebenfalls Yoga und eine Porto-Führung enthalten.
Die Yoga-Session wurde von einer erfahrenen Lehrerin gegeben und hat uns gut gefallen. Porto ist mit der Bahn sehr einfach zu erreichen. Eine sehenswerte Stadt mit einem tollem Flair und einigen Sehenswürdigkeiten.
In Esmoriz selbst gibt es auch einige Bars,Cafés und Restaurants. Man bekommt hier beispielsweise guten Kaffee, frischen Fisch vom Grill und leckeren Sangria geboten. Die Preise sind sehr human!
