Great first surf experience - Großen Lob an den Trainer Francesco. He was an incredibly nice and patient coach. I had some concerns at the beginning and didn't feel comfortable in the water. He took away my fear so that the surfing soon worked out well. Great recommendation!

Great surf school - My sister and I booked three surf lessons with About Freedom and had an amazing time! Roberto, who runs the surf school, speaks Portuguese, French, and English fluently, which made it super easy to get tips and feedback. Both Roberto and Francisco had great pointers to help us get better, and they always made sure we were safe and having fun. I also really liked the small group size—it meant we all caught loads of waves and got to learn from them. I’ve taken surf lessons in a bunch of places around the world, and About Freedom is definitely one of the best experiences I’ve had. Plus, I got an awesome pic (thanks to Anna, the Social Media intern)! Thanks so much for an unforgettable time!
