About this villa rental
Nestled in a prime location, Casa da Luz comfortably accommodates 8 guests across 4 bedrooms (3 double beds, 2 single beds), offering all the comfort you need after a day on the water. Step outside to a fantastic, secluded outdoor area, complete with a charming patio, a spacious table, and a convenient built-in barbecue – perfect for post-surf BBQs and sharing stories of the day's rides.
The best part? You're just a 5-minute walk to the water's edge! Imagine grabbing your board, getting geared up at the house, and being in the line-up in less than ten minutes. That's unparalleled convenience for dawn patrol or chasing the last rays of sunset.
While not always in the mainstream surf media, the beaches of Bom Sucesso and Foz do Arelho are a well-kept secret among pros. These are some of the most sought-after spots for World Tour surfers to train when the circuit passes through Peniche, with memorable sessions by legends like Kelly Slater and Sebastien Ziets documented on YouTube.
Beyond these local gems, a vast stretch of sandy coastline from Bom Sucesso to Almagreira Beach (Atouguia da Baleia) boasts some of Portugal's best sand-bottom breaks, offering countless epic sessions regularly captured by professional photographers. A short drive further south leads you to the famous Lagido peak in Baleal, an excellent wave for progressing from beginner to advanced levels.
The Bay between Baleal and Peniche is another inexhaustible source of fun spots, even featuring the location where Kelly Slater famously landed the first documented 540°! Around the Peniche peninsula, its unique geography almost guarantees an offshore spot no matter the wind direction, ensuring optimal conditions for surfing. Continue south, and you'll hit world-class waves at Molhe Leste and Supertubos, delighting locals and professionals alike.
But the wave hunt doesn't stop there! Countless more surf spots are within an hour's drive south of Casa da Luz. Head an hour north, and you'll find Nazaré, globally renowned for its monstrous waves at Praia do Norte. While famous for record-breaking giants, Praia do Norte also offers waves of all sizes and acts as a wave magnet, often providing overhead surf when other areas are flat.
