The workshop starts on the first day at 13:00 and finishes around 18:00.

The following two days will be more intensive, beginning at 9:00 and ending around 18:00.

However, the finishing time may vary depending on the number of participants and the progress of each board.

On the first day, we’ll start after lunch (please eat before arriving). On the following two days, we’ll have lunch together. Food is not included, so we recommend bringing your own picnic (see Food).

Our 3-day workshops take place at Ondanova Surfboards →The workshop is quite isolated, about a 15-minute drive from Ericeira.

If you're coming from abroad, especially outside the high season, we recommend renting/having a car, as off-season deals can be very attractive.

Transport by bus and then Uber/Bolt from Ericeira is also possible.

Food is not included, but we provide plenty of snacks, fruits, drinks, coffee, and tea throughout the day. The workshop is quite isolated, with no restaurants or shops nearby, so we recommend bringing your own picnic. We also have a kitchen (equipped with a fridge, oven and cooking plate), allowing you to store your food and prepare simple meals on-site.

Nearby options are limited but Ericeira and the surrounding areas offer plenty of choices, about a 15-minute drive away.

Check out our Ericeira Guide.

If you need assistance finding a place to stay, feel free to contact us →.

Since we will be making dust and using glue, we recommend wearing comfortable work clothes and closed-toe shoes.

 We provide all the tools and materials, but if you have specific preferences for protective gear (e.g., gloves, mask), feel free to bring your own. We do suggest bringing a dust mask of your choice, an FFP2 mask is perfectly suitable.

​Also don’t forget your lunch for the second and third day..

After the workshop, your board is shaped — but not quite ready to surf.

We take care of the glassing process, which requires a controlled space and several days of curing. This step takes around 4 to 6 days and is already included in the workshop price. So be sure to factor this into your planning if you are not staying/living around Ericeira.

Once the glassing is done, your board will be ready for pick-up and surf. If you're unable to collect it in person, we can arrange shipping within the EU: this typically costs between €100 and €200, depending on the destination.

Yes, but with some limits.

The natural grain of the wood is already a beautiful feature on its own, so we generally encourage leaving it natural or keeping decoration minimal, like a logo or a simple geometric color illustration.

You can personalize your board with a logo (maximum A4 size), which costs 50€/logo. Just send us the file beforehand or during the workshop.

For color or more elaborate artwork, pricing is available on request, and we’ll be happy to discuss your ideas during the workshop.
