Is mum or dad and/or the whole family eager to get away, score sick waves, sky rocket your bodyboarding performance and have fun in the sun, then this is the perfect trip for you! With miles of family friendly beaches, rolling waves and golden sands it has everything that a family activity holiday could wish for. Portugal has such a variety of bodyboarding spots it’s ridiculous! What makes the Sintra/Lisbon area so unique is that it receives an abundance of swell and is blessed with two coasts; a West and a South coast. This not only means that there is almost always an offshore and rideable wave, but when it is too big on the West facing beaches, shelter can be found on the adjacent South coast. So whatever your experience or wave taste Matt will find the perfect conditions to suit the whole family.

M but litt by sur
We have a wonderful range of properties to offer our family holidays. All of our properties have their own charm and are located in the beautiful Sintra National Park, and close to the beach. Just let us know when you would like to visit, we will match you up with a great accommodation option, you can confirm that you like it and we’ll then take a deposit to confirm your booking.
Matt makes himself indispensable and it’s hard to imagine, after enjoying the luxury of his services, how anyone goes bodyboarding without someone who checks the waves and weather conditions; who knows the right place for beginners to enter the sea each day.” DA M I A N W H I T WO R T H
