Azores Surf Center

Azores Surf Center is a locally-rooted surf school on São Miguel Island, dedicated to teaching and inspiring surfers of all levels. Established in 2013 by Josephine and Ricardo, we are licensed by the Azores Tourism Board and fully insured, with certified instructors who are passionate about the ocean and environmental protection.

Situated right on Santa Bárbara Beach in Ribeira Grande, our mission is to provide a friendly, professional, and personal surfing experience. Whether you’re catching your first wave or refining advanced skills, we bring safety, fun, and authenticity to every lesson.

We include all necessary equipment (wetsuits, boards), and adapt to the tides and conditions to ensure the best experience possible. We're also active in community and environmental work — from beach cleanups to partnerships with Surfrider Foundation Azores.
