Peniche and the ocean are inseparable, and we decided to join forces!
Come and greet one of the largest traditional fishing cities in Portugal, in the perfect
atmosphere for relaxing and chilling, meeting nice people, and making new friends.
Capital of the wave, Peniche is the reference for surfing in Portugal, and a meeting point for the world elite of this sport, every year at the World Surf League.
Whether you’re a surfer, a lone traveler, a group of friends, or a family, be assured this is the place where your good vibes melt with the traditional Portuguese culture. We are just a few steps away from the village's best-known seafood restaurants and some of the best waves in the world.
Sleep in cool style in our dorms, suites, studios, and apartments, and simulate a traditional
fishing village without leaving the premises. Ask our creative staff what you can do to connect with the locals easily and mingle among the locals.
The beach is the place to be if you want to get a tan and dive into the pure ocean, but make sure you take one of our boat rides and visit the wild Berlengas. Are you truly seasick? Then try a bike rental tour instead, or an afternoon simply drinking beer on a beautiful deck or esplanade.
Come enjoy our open space common areas and fully equipped kitchen, and release your inner master chef. Challenge your friends to a foosball match and a trampoline competition afterward, and tell the world how much fun you had in Peniche.
We are already catching some waves while we wait for all of you in this historical city!
