Life at Jho’La
Surf days, community dinners, and slow Algarve mornings in Praia da Luz.
A week in photos
Surf days & lessons
Small groups, real coaching, and the best spot for the day.
From first pop-ups to confident green waves, it’s all about progress and fun.
Lessons are included in our week packages and planned around the conditions.
The house & pool
A calm base in Praia da Luz—simple, comfortable, and designed for easy surf living.
Relax by the saltwater pool, reset between sessions, and sleep well for the next day.
It’s a small place on purpose, so it feels more like home than a hotel.
Food, stories & community dinners
Shared meals are part of the Jho’La experience—good food, good people, no rush.
We cook authentic Portuguese dinners twice a week and keep the vibe family-style.
Expect laughs, stories, and that “surf family” feeling by the end of the week.
Praia da Luz & the Algarve coast
Praia da Luz is a relaxed beach town with great sunsets, coastal walks, and local restaurants.
Lagos and the west coast are close—perfect for exploring on rest time.
It’s the Algarve at its best: ocean, cliffs, and space to breathe.
