Yume Surfcamps (Praia de Mira, Portugal) ★★★

Praia de Mira – Discover Central Portugal

Welcome to Praia de Mira, a hidden gem on Portugal’s coastline, just one hour south of Porto. Known for having the world’s longest continuously awarded Blue Flag Beach, it’s a place where unspoilt nature, uncrowded waves and just the right amount of nightlife come together.

Our camp is just a 3-4 minute walk from the beach, situated between endless pine forests and stunning lakes. With miles of golden sand and clean waters, Praia de Mira's beaches are ideal for both experienced surfers and beginners looking to catch their first waves.

Praia de Mira is a place where nature and nightlife go hand in hand. Whether you are in the mood for a sunset drink with live music at one of the beach bars, or a quiet evening under the stars, you will find the perfect balance of energy and relaxation.
Here, life moves at your pace - active when you want it, peaceful when you need it.

At Yume Surfcamps, we want to do things differently! We’re not just creating another large, anonymous camp where people come and go every week. Instead, we’re building something more authentic!

As founders of Yume Surfcamps, Justus and Philip will be on-site, working alongside their amazing team to ensure a warm and welcoming atmosphere.

Justus grew up in the Swiss Alps, skiing and snowboarding from the moment he could walk. Philip, on the other hand, was raised on the Canary Islands, spending his childhood surfing the waves. Together, they’ve spent many years working at surf camps across Portugal, France, and Spain—and they know exactly what it takes to create an unforgettable week by the sea.

Whether you're looking for adventure, relaxation, or a sense of community, this is a place to connect with new friends and enjoy surfing like never before. Whether you're a beginner or already have experience, we make sure it’s fun for everyone.

Our Cuisine
At our surf camp, every meal is a celebration of flavor, quality and care. We believe food should nourish both body and soul, which is why our chefs use only the freshest, mostly local ingredients, always sourced with sustainability in mind. Cooking for a group doesn’t mean sacrificing attention to detail. From rich flavors to thoughtful presentation, each dish is crafted to be a highlight of your stay—a culinary journey you won't forget!

At Yume Surfcamps, you’ll be guided by highly skilled instructors who combine years of surfing expertise, competitive experience and professional training. All our surf instructors are certified surf coaches and lifeguards who meet the highest legal and safety standards, ensuring you're always in good hands.

Classes are kept small, with a maximum of 6-8 participants per group, depending on the level. This allows our instructors to provide personalized coaching tailored to your needs. Lessons are conducted in English, but as many of our instructors are multilingual, there’s a good chance you can be taught in your native language.

Our instructors carefully assess daily surf conditions to choose the best spot with the ideal waves for your level, creating a safe and supportive learning environment. With their expertise, you’ll develop essential skills while having a lot of fun, whether you're catching your first wave or mastering more advanced techniques.

During your stay, we provide all the necessary equipment, including high-quality soft top surfboards and comfortable wetsuits. Both available in a wide range of sizes to ensure the perfect fit for everyone!

The equipment is available during lessons and in free time for extra practice or just for fun. We also provide essentials like rash guards and surf wax—so all you need to bring is your swimwear and a towel!
