Forget Indonesia: to ride the crest of the best waves, hone your technique, or simply take your first steps, you don’t need to go far from Lisbon— or even head out to sea.
Located in the municipality of Óbidos, about an hour from Lisbon, just a few kilometers from the giant waves of Nazaré and the “Supertubos” of Peniche, Surfers Cove is set to revolutionize the world of surfing and the active sports tourism sector.
Surfers Cove – Óbidos
The new surfing “paradise” is in Portugal
Scheduled to open its doors in late December, this mega-project is the result of a 25 million euro investment ( which includes 9.16 million euros in funding from Portugal 2030) and is aimed at surfers and enthusiasts of all ages.
The five-hectare site will feature Portugal’s first surfing wave pool, which incorporates Wavegarden Cove— cutting-edge technology capable of generating 1,000 waves per hour— as well as a tourist complex with several fully equipped bungalows designed to extend your experience at Surf Village.
As part of a strategy leading up to the official opening, Surfers Cove has launched an exclusive “Surf & Stay” campaign featuring“ ” and“Early Bird” tickets, along with limited-time discounts of up to 31%, available on the Fever platform . And one of the new features is that the surfpackages can be shared with your friends or family.
In practice, you can purchase a package of sessions and share them with one or more friends, ensuring an immersive surfing experience in the Atlantic Ocean.
The “magic” of Wavegarden technology
More than just a pool, Surfers Cove is a true wave “factory” designed to make surfing accessible to everyone. Using Wavegarden technology—one of the most advanced in the world in this sector— the surfing “revolution” is truly just a short distance from Lisbon.
In practice, the use of this technology translates into significant data, such as:
- A thousand waves per hour
- 25 types of waves
Custom waves and shareable packages:
To take advantage of this exclusive, once-in-a-lifetime offer from Surfers Cove, it’s worth exploring each of the different Surf Packs and choosing the one that best suits your needs:
- 1- sessionpackage starting at €72.50 with a 17% discount
- 3-session package starting at €195 with a 25% discount
- 10-session package starting at €625 with a 28% discount
- 30-session package starting at €1,800 with a 31% discount
The real novelty here is that these passes aren’t personalized. So , for example, if you choose the 30-sessionpackage (each session lasts 60 minutes), you can freely share it with your group of friends or family.
Wake up with your surfboard at your feet
Surfers Cove is more than just a wave pool; it’s a true resort with everything you need for a quality stay from start to finish. So, you can extend your experience with one of the many accommodation options available .
In total, the complex offers a variety of bungalows in different layouts, including studio ( T0), one-bedroom (T1), and two-bedroom (T2) units.
With the opening scheduled for late December 2026, here’s an important detail to keep in mind: you’ll have six months to use your packages after the official opening. Also, it’s worth noting that Early Bird discounts are limited in bothquantity and time, so this is a window of opportunity that may not come around again!
