don't book in advance..
.. we booked part of a house from one of the surf schools and they really screwed us on the price compared to what others getting the same package only paying on the spot was paying. You can always find a nice little peak in praia do baleal for youself, and its really good for learning. Keep your eyes open for spots and waves to your liking along the bay, and go in the high tide. If you wanna buy gear, go to 58 surf shop. Really helpful and definitely the best around.

the surfcamps are ruining a place that once was known for soul surfing.
Surfing for sale.

Best looking people , best location , best summer surf spot . The other camps are full of men , 58 surfcamp ( germans ) and Penichesurfcamp ( english hooligans ). DONT FORGET BALEAL SURF CAMP

i stayed in peniche for a week in october 2001, the weather was good and the surf was consistant. supertubos didnt work while we was there but baleal and lagide was good fun. if your running out of money, its a good place to end your tour. the surf wasnt crowded and the locals were friendly.

Don't generalize Germans
You are certainly right about some of them. They are agressive because they have to pay much money for something you always have. The most important thing is to tell them peacefully the rules of priority of the waves. When I began surfing is used to have problems as well but now I am an open-minded person which respects the enviroment and the locals. So there is at least one German who is not what you call a bastard
