Very nice accommodation in Nova Vila de Gaia. 2 minutes walk to the beach and the ocean, nice cafe and restaurants at the beach. We loved it very much and the people were very kind, nice and realiable. If you have a car or you go by bus or bike, you can also have a look at other beaches and chose the one you prefer most. For surfing we went to Espinho - SurfJah is a very good and professional surf school there - directly behind the Casino/Solvedere Hotel at the beach. In each group not more than 4 pupils.
