Our people. Our team.

We are surfers, we have a degree in Sports Science, and our team includes Manuel Centeno, a two-time World Bodyboard Champion (2003 and 2006), five-time European Champion, and ten-time National Champion. But what we are really proud of is the friendship and good vibes that unites us. That’s why you are going to walk out of the ocean wearing a smile on your face!

Meet the teachers

Evolution. Competition.

Some people remember these experiences forever. Others become addicted… That’s why, beyond the one time events, we have our own competition teams. We taught national champions, we won the Portuguese Bodyboard Cup.

Our athletes are a recurrent part of the National Team in the European Championship. If your goal is evolution we have got you covered… If you want to move beyond that: welcome to the Team!

We had an amazing time. My boyfriend and I booked the 3 day surf experience and we had an amazing time. The instructors were wonderful and made sure we not only learned the basics of surfing, but also had lots of fun in the water. Afonso and Rodrigo were very nice, patient and always happy to answer questions and give feedback. I highly recommend learning surfing with Linha de Onda!

I had an amazing experience with Linha de Onda Surf School! The instructors are incredibly professional, friendly, and passionate about surfing. They made me feel comfortable and confident in the water. The equipment was in excellent condition, and the lessons were well-organized, fun. The team created a positive and welcoming atmosphere that made every session enjoyable. Thanks to Linha de Onda, I improved my surfing much faster than I expected and had an unforgettable time. I highly recommend Linha de Onda to anyone looking for top-quality surf lessons, whether you’re a complete beginner or an experienced surfer wanting to improve your skills. I can’t wait to come back!🌊

I had such a great time there! All the teachers are amazing and welcoming, they give really good and personalized advice and you can tell they love what they’re doing!! Most of the time the groups are small and Afonso, João, Thiago and Pedro really make sure that no one is forgotten and keep everyone involved. Will definitely come back when I get the chance to 🏄‍♀️🏄‍♀️

We tried our first surf lesson here but after this experience it will definitively not be our last surf lesson. It was very convenient and funny, i liked it so much. If i visit Porto in the future i will return.
