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.

An article in Endless Vacation Magazine by Christine Ajudua
Recently we came on an article in the Endless Vacation Magazine made by Christine Ajudua. It’s an honor to be a part of it even more when the title is “The Magic of Madeira”.
“Not far away is Porto da Cruz, a tiny cobblestoned village whose black-sand Praia da Lagoa is known for its surf breaks. You can learn how to hang ten with Salty (Rua da Praia; 011-351-967-107-792; lessons, from $53), a just-launched water-sports school from seven-time Madeira surfing champion Belmiro Mendes; he’s even taught his pet dogs to ride the waves. And if it’s not too windy, consider a walk along the barren basalt cliffs to Ponta de São Lourenço, Madeira’s dramatic easternmost tip, a nature reserve where you can see rare monk seals and take in clear views of Porto Santo, Madeira’s little sister, to the northeast.” – Christine Ajudua in Endless Vacation Magazine.

Surf and Stand up Paddle in Madeira Island with Salty Madeira.
- Sun, SUP and fun!
- SUP lesson around Câmara de Lobos
- Arriving to Câmara de Lobos after a great SUP lesson
The day started early just like every simple live adicted waterman. Predictions of light wind on the morning and some waves for a fun surf class later on the day i just pack all gear an hit the road to meet with Alexandra and her little Noa in Camara de Lobos.
The plan was simple: pure fun and a good time on the Madeira south coast!
I arrived, took all gear off and they appeared. Little Noa was supper excited to heat the water for the first class of the day, a Stand Up Paddle tour to the water fall and the “cave”.
After 45 minutes paddling with the amazing view of Camara de Lobos and Cabo Girão, we were there ;). Took some time to enjoy all the beauty of these place . Paddle back to Camara de Lobos bay with some light winds to end our morning activity. When we arrived i was impressed, got to remember that Noa is 8 years old and she did it like everyone else.
After everyone ready we went for some lunch! “Just up the hill we have a few good restaurants and when you are with Salty remember that you are no longer a tourist for us you are a part of the family and we always want the best for those that we care. So as always we thake you to the perfect and local places were you can embrace the local comunity.” Espetada with fried corn cubes and some salad”, the perfect traditional dish for a local.
Second round was a surf class in Porto da Cruz in the North East of Madeira Island, but this time we had the company of another two members of the family Chico an Gui join us for the surfing session.
Meeting point in the Alagoa Beach Restaurant. Some waves with some wind but perfect for another two hours in the water.
We got the gear up and went in to ride some good waves and it was amazing. Alexandra and Noa were riding wave after wave and the time pass by Noa hit the beach to play with Chico and Gui and Alexandra got a few more waves. After it was time for Chico to do one wave!
After this amazing day we went to the Alagoa Beach Restaurant for the Madeira famous and our favourite fisherman style poncha. A local drink made from sugar cane rum lemon peale and some sugar. Perfect end of the day in a good company 🙂
Thank you Alexandra and Noa for the time that you spended with us! It was a pleasure to meet you and don’f forget: Keep it Salty!
