Beginners Surf Lessons in Madeira Island

Salty – Madeira Water Activities is a surf school that works in Madeira Island. We work all over the Island so we can find the best surf spots for your surfing level.

Beginners surf lessons can be done in a few surf spots all over Madeira Island. There are 4 beginners surf spots that we use for our surf lessons.

In all the beginners surf spots you will find black sand. The sand is black because it is from volcanic origin Island.

The beginners surf spots in Madeira Island are located in: Porto da Cruz, Machico or Seixal.

Porto da Cruz:

– Alagoa beach – Small beach with a mix between small rocks and dark sand but some times we have a full sandy beach.

– Maiata beach – This is the one of the biggest beach with sand in our Island. Some time it get’s also a mix between rocks and sand.

Machico:

– There is a sand mixed with some rocsk in Machico perfect to have beginners surf lesson but these wave works with a south swell and just works time to time.

Seixal:

– Just by the harbour in Seixal we have a sand beach perfect to go for a first surf lesson on the north coast of Madeira

All these waves are the only places that are suitable for a beginners surf lessons  in Madeira Island. Depending on the weather and swell (waves) forecast we move from one to other spot so we can get you to the better one on your surf lesson with us.

Our beginners surf lessons are more then only surfing. The important part for us is that you can enjoy your surf session and know a little bit more abou our culture.

Salty Madeira: Surf trip to Indonesia

Surf  trip to Indonesia…

Enjoy some pictures 😉

What to say about the Indonesia surf trip?

I think it all started with a little project call Salty – Madeira Water Activities, a dream of passing to others the joy and the impact that the ocean had in all my life.

Thanks to Salty and everyone that join our Surf, SUP and Bodyboard school… with all of you i could  manage to travel on my dream trip to Indonesia!

“It all started with long hours in airoports and planes, Emirates make it feel confortable and fast! Arrived to Jakarta direct to the hotel and I had my very first Bintang with my friend João Mealha.

Next day Padang were we meet the hole crew and the captain Gonçalo Ruivo, i was pumped to start the action on the next day on board of Melaleuca.

It was 11 days surfing here and there all over the dream land Mentawai, surfed lot of waves during the boat trip but one just got to the hole crew as the best of it. We surfed Greenbush all by ourselves. Two hours of overhead waves and good vibes made it the surf of the trip!

Second round was on Lancers Right for 8 days in a 10 steps walk to the water and a 2 minutes paddle to the peak. It was magic!

Surfed HT’S everyday and even got a walk across the rain forest to King Fisher camp on Lancer’s left for a good surf session with Aiken aka Supersonic and Couto. The road there was something out of a Nathional Geografic mag, the local comunity that we met along the road were so simple and beautiful that i felt at home!

On the end 3.30h of boat to catch the fast ferry on another 3h back to Padang. Next day a 37 h trip back to Madeira Island.

It was an amazing trip, surf everyday and made new friends. Gonçalo “the Captain”; João Mealha “Borboleta”; Miguel Fortes; Filipe; Angelo “Supersonic”; Henrique “pescador”; Mouzinho “the coutch”; João Mendonça “boquinha de ouro”; Tomás Couto; Manu “zuca”. Thanks you guys for all, the time and the knowledge that you shared with me!

Special thanks to my girlfriend that make it all possible everyday!

Surf in Madeira Island

… what a day of surfing. Before I speak of this day, I must perhaps say how my previous day ended. Good waves in a memorable afternoon. Two hours of good surf in good company, a poncha to finish the day with the sun going down and a forecast of good waves for the next day.

Morning Surfing

I woke up at 06:30 in the morning to go surfing again to the same spot that i had surfed the day before. Full of will and anxiety to get there and know the true verdict of the conditions of the waves. With the sun still to rise  and conditions not perfect but more than acceptable for a good session of surf, light wind and waves of 1.5m. 4 people inside the water and good barrels! It was a good 2.30 hours of surf. The tide was changing and i changed also the surf spot. The north coast of the island was going to be more or less with the same conditions but instead of right waves to surf i surfed some nice lefts. Sun, good waves and lots of fun on the mix for the 3 hours surfing.

Madeira Island has the conditions to provide good experiences for all levels of surf, from the beginners to the pros. It is very important to surf together and that is where Salty comes in, we have classes for beginners to surf guide for pros. If you want to surf in Madeira Island and have fun book your surfing experience with Salty – Madeira Water Activities.

Stand up Paddle tour in Madeira Island – Testimonial

Stand up Paddle Tours in Madeira Islands – Testimonial
We feel happy to share with you a testimonial from our “clients” now our friends Peter an Simone about their experience during a stand up paddle tour in the bay of the Câmara de Lobos in Madeira Island.

Join our SUP classes in our Stand Up Paddle School by Salty – Madeira Water Activities.

“In the Realm of the Senses

First! Think about your Job, Stress, Emails, rainy and cold weather and what ever you do at home.

And then…., can you remember your last trip to Madeira, when the airplane arrives Funchal Airport, through the doors reaches you warm and tropical air, 27 degrees, the darkblue ocean is in front of you, the sun burns down. Can you remember this time??? Can you feel now this Paradies?

We can, our last trip was in September this year, one of now over 10 stays at this wonderful island. This year we had the wish to spend more time at the water, first time on a board, on a SuP Board. Hey and everybody of our friends says us before: “You are to old, you are freaky, you are crazy, in your age is SuP not the sport which you should prefere”.

But my wife and I has our own idea for that. Claudia, the owner of Lobosonda gave us the contact of Belmiro from Salty.

2 days later: What a day! We met a couple with a lot of inspired ideas, we spent an amazing time on the boards. Remember: you are on the board, sunny weather, small waves outside and two teachers with a burning fire in their eyes.

Belmiro and Sara have such a lot of passion in their job, so we think this was the best idea which we had in our holidays.

Go out surfing, go out with the SuP Board, dive with the fishes or go out with a Bodyboard, but do it with Salty, do it with Belmiro Mendes and Sara Abreu.

Have fun after the tour and drink Poncha, Fishermen Poncha, not the Tourist Poncha with Honey! It must be the pure one!

And I’m sure, when we back next year, we will spend once more a lot of time with Salty.

“So far we’ve had an amazing time on Madeira island. Beautiful weather, good food, nice people, great whale watching tour.. only the really fun experience was missing. Good thing we heard about Salty. We didn’t need much time to think about it.. it was time to get Salty!
Early in the morning we got up, the sun only starting to rise and we were already on the road to Porto Cruz, where good waves were to be expected. We got there and after a quick coffee went to check out the beach. Nice little beach and already some people hoping into the waves. Shortly after, Belmiro arrived and welcomed us warmly. He checked the waves and decided to take us to another spot with better waves. He sure knows his business. Only a short drive away is Machico, where a large beach with nice waves was waiting for us.
