What can I say, this is the best surf camp I have ever been to. Absolutely unique place where everything is so harmonious that you want to come here again and again. Having come for the first time in 2016, I come every year and bring my friends here! Rui and Tony's surf camp has become a very familiar place!
And the guys are constantly improving something at the campsite. And what to say about the surf instructors, Luis, Egor, Rafa, the guys are incredibly experienced and put a lot of knowledge into their students.
Separately I would like to mention the food in the camp, which will not leave anyone indifferent, it's just a song for the stomach!
All in all it's an incredibly cool place in an absolutely fantastic location with fantastic people and atmosphere! And we are coming here again very soon!

I have been there for a week, the place is amazing, quiet and beautiful. Russo and Tonya are so friendly and thoughtful. Also the beaches couldn't be better. I have enjoyed the surf lessons very much, I recommend everyone to go there!

I spend a week at Russo's this Summer 2019 - with my two teenage daughters. We stayed in a private room and loved it. Great atmosphere, great food and great waves ;-)) --- even for beginners. All perfect and almost the perfect 10 (if only the coffee machine was a bit better. The coffee cannot be drunk which can be hard if you get early to catch a wave. We'll be back (with our own coffee maker).

Я хочу сказать большое спасибо Тоне и Руи за отличную неделю в кэмпе! Расположение кэмпа отличное,виды завораживают. Обстановка очень домашняя и душевная,уезжать совсем не хотелось. Еда ооочень вкусная, а порции огромные. Это был мой первый опыт серфинга, поэтому бороться с волнами было сложновато,но это очень круто. Организация и преподавание на высшем уровне, все объяснят и помогут. Океан - это любовь, я всем сердцем полюбила это место, надеюсь, скоро сюда вернуться.

Had the most amazing stay here! The camp is in such a beautiful location and just up the hill from the best beach in the Algarve!
Russo and Tonya were amazing hosts and all the staff there are super friendly, and also give amazing surf lessons!
Whether it’s a party or just a chilled week in the sun, Russo surf camp hasn’t it all! Highly recommended!

I spent such a great time in Vale Figueiras!
It is more than just a Surfcamp.
The surf teachers are very good, even if it's not easy with the beginners ; )
You can have nice Yoga classes in the morning or in the evening.
And I really loved the food!
Thank you so much Tonya and Rui!
You have a wonderful place with warmhearted people.
I try to come back as soon as possible...!

No hay mejor surfcamp ni mejor entorno para disfrutar de la magia del Algarve!
Desde hace años es una visita obligada cada año por muchos motivos, y lo seguirá siendo.
Las increíbles playas y paisajes son solo el principio, las olas, las noches en el camp, la comida,etc... Pero lo mejor sin duda es ir a visitar y pasar unos días junto a Russo, Tonya, Luis, Hannah y el resto del equipo, son más que amigos, se han convertido en parte de nuestra familia!
Nos vemos pronto;)

Highly recommended!

I´m realy suprised about the open and easy way to stay in vacation and to learn surfing. Best conditions to relax and do surfing. My daughters with 11 and 13 years enjoyed too, also without speaking anything words in english. Sebastian from Berlin.

I was a pro-athlete - racing cyclist in the past and tried to surf the first time in my life in Vale Figueiras Surfcamp. This place became a great discovery for me.
Great location with beautiful view in the middle of national park, close to the ocean, experienced coaches, opportunity of backhorseriding on your leisure time! Here you can ride the bicycle all year long, finding your dusty tracks or cruising on the asphalt roads. Good roads for cycling, no traffic at all and friendly drivers. Many interesting places around make a bike riding even more exiting!
Climate, location, facilities and FOOD make this camp the perfect place for get ready for Triatlon and IRONMAN!
Of course, the great role of Atlatic waves, unforgettable memories of surfing and positive emotions! Coaches would get the beginners ready for green waves, or improve the level of intermediates. And yoga lessons were so good to find your balance and connect your body and brain.
Thank you!!
