About Us

Our Story

Three local partners with extensive experience and a passion for surfing decided to open a surf school on the beaches of Peniche, Baleal, and Areia Branca.

The goal was to share their knowledge and create a new concept of high-quality surf lessons.

Bringing and conveying to the local community and the world what surfing meant to them… Enthusiasm and connection with nature!

Thus, in 2015, Uprise Surf School was born, offering its surf lessons on the beaches of Peniche, Baleal, and Areia Branca, which present the best conditions for practice, while also offering various types of accommodation.

Why us

Uprise was born in 2015 from the desire of three passionate surfers to convey to the community and the world what surfing means to them… Enthusiasm and connection with nature!
