The Good Feeling Guide to Surfing in the West Algarve #1 Surf Spots

This summer the surf’s been very unusual – with lots of south swells in July, it’s been hot hot hot with non-stop waves!

One of the things we like to do most at the Good Feeling is to find ways that we can make it an even better place to stay for our guests.
So we have ideas all the time, and when people who stay with us make suggestions we pay attention.

This year we’ve been making improvements outside, because that’s where everybody wants to be when the sun’s shining, which is pretty much always!

The Good Feeling Learn to Surf Guide #1: Surf Lessons vs Teach Yourself

Learning to surf – is it better to learn as quickly as you can and have fun while you learn? Or is there something more satisfying about learning the hard way?

When we see people go solo and teach themselves to surf, we notice their progress is usually slower and they don’t seem to get as big a stoke as people who learn with an instructor. There’s also a greater risk of accidents and injuries.
Having spent some time thinking about that, we thought we’d share our thoughts with you. Let us know whether you agree!

Prepare the body, start the day with YOGA!

Yoga and surfing go together like sand and saltwater. Both disciplines tap into a natural flow. Yoga gets you in touch with the rhythm of your breath and body, while surfing gets you in sync with the wave patterns and ocean tides. In yoga, you learn not to force any pose, but to find the depth of the pose in the moment. In surfing, you learn that you can’t force a wave or a set. Instead, you practice being fully in the moment and in tune with the current so you can catch a wave.
