West Portugal is easily one of our fastest growing windsurfing destinations. With a fantastic hotel located right on the beach, with its very own windsurfing centre, a long stretch of clear beautiful beach, consistent wind in the European summer and above all, amazing conditions for windsurfing, what’s not to love? And what is even better is that there is so much to do when you’re not out windsurfing, from mountain biking to SUPing. You can even combine your week’s windsurfing holiday with a cruise down the magnificent Duoro river!

With two starting points available, one up the river in Pinhão, the oldest demarcated wine region in the world, and one in the mythical historical centre of Porto, you can choose your route for exploring the Douro. With its 210 navigable kilometres, the Duoro is considerate by many to be the most beautiful river in Europe!

You can look forward to passing through locks, stopping at local restaurants view magnificent views over the river, wine tasting, and stand up paddle boarding along the way.
