To go wave riding throughout the whole year in warm, turquoise-coloured water – this is probably every surfer’s dream.

Guests are accommodated in the Sugar Cane Hostel which also hosts backpackers but focuses on surfers.
The hostel is in a very nice location - bars, clubs and shops are just around the corner and also the golden sand beaches

something new, feel free to participate in a yoga, samba or Portuguese class!
