Feel Caparica is a surf school and experience provider based in Fonte da Telha, Setúbal, offering a broad range of lessons and surf packages for visitors, families and students. The company organizes group and private lessons, kids’ programs, half-day and full-day surf experiences, corporate and birthday sessions, and recurring monthly classes for young learners. Most standard sessions run two hours and include practical instruction, safety briefings and hands-on time in the water. Several offerings explicitly note certified instructors and provision of necessary equipment for full-day and half-day packages. Lessons are tailored by skill level, from beginner safety and basic technique to guided practice for more experienced participants. Small group formats and private lessons provide lower instructor-to-student ratios for more personalized feedback. Family and kids’ packages focus on age-appropriate coaching and a supportive, fun environment. School and student programs are designed to accommodate educational groups with attention to safety and supervision. The operation runs at a beach location in Fonte da Telha, within the Setúbal area, giving access to suitable surf conditions mentioned in trip descriptions.
Offerings include sessions like Sunset Surf, Meio dia de Surf and Dia Inteiro de Surf, plus structured kids’ programs and monthly packages. Bookings are available for groups now.
