Once upon a time in Hawaii, a man called Duke Kahanamoku grabbed a 10-foot longboard and the sport of surfing hit the big time. Salt water, sun, sand and a blissfully simple existence combine in surfing to make it an addictive way of life.

    I've just got back from a week at Rapture Surf Camp in Portugal. The beach in Ericeira is excellent with great waves. The surf camp is based in a chilled out villa 3 minutes walk from the sea.

    You get friendly and knowledgeable surf guides who will tell you where to surf and give you pointers, decent hearty meals and a communal living room with comfy sofas, widescreen tv and dvds where you can hang out with other travellers and relax after a hard days surfing.

    The town itself has plenty of bars and some good restaurants. You can get a great Brazilian steak for 10 Euros

    I paid just over 200 Euros for 6 nights, surf lessons, wetsuit & board hire, breakfast and dinner and a ride to the airport. Bargain.

    It is a 40 min drive from Lisbon airport, they will pick you up for 15 Euros, or there is a bus for around 5 Euros, which takes a little longer.
