The beach
Between the striped houses and the open sea
Costa Nova has a sandy bottom, regular waves and a lagoon on the other side for when the sea is big. We choose the peak by tide and wind; if conditions aren't right, we move your lesson at no cost.
The meeting point is the orange van by the Bar da Praia, ten minutes before the start.
