About Us

We are a passionate team with a vision to provide the best surf experience for those traveling to Lisbon

TRAVEL . TOURS . SURF

LISBON SURF CONNECTION combines two of Portugal’s main treasures, the quality of its waves, and the mystique of its culture (gastronomy, museums, monuments).

 

Our itineraries include Surf and cultural experiences, in various iconic locations throughout our country, starting with the capital, Lisbon, and for the more adventurous exploring places like Porto, Peniche, Alentejo, and Lagos.

 

All this conveying the laid-back lifestyle experienced in Portugal, making it one of the best destinations in the world to visit.

Our Team

The mentors of this project met in 2004 during a surf championship at Carcavelos beach, and have since shared their strong passion for the sea.

Both were part of the national selection in 2005, 2006, 2007, and 2008. Later, António pursued his studies, completing a bachelor’s degree in marketing and advertising and a master’s degree in digital marketing. Tomas embarked on a successful career as a FreeSurfer professional, being today one of the most prominent Portuguese surfers in the media.

In 2014, after exchanging ideas, and although they had previously chosen different paths, they decided it was time to join forces and create LISBON SURF CONNECTION.
