Meet the team

Ericeira Surf House is run by Noora, Raymond and Erwin. Two Dutchies and one Finnish girl, all with a passion for surfing and good life. With different backgrounds in hospitality, tourism, surfing and snowboarding, we decided to take the leap and go for something we really like. What once began as a small joke, grew into a dream and this dream is now reality.

Our goal was to create a place where surfers and surf-minded people can have a relaxed holiday. Not a surf camp with tents, queues for the showers and sand everywhere, but a luxury house with all possible amenities for surfers who have outgrown surf camps.

We aren’t happy when you aren’t happy. That’s why we’ll always do our best to make sure you feel at home and will have a blast while staying with us. If you have any questions, please let us know.

Raymond

Ray has worked several years in a boardshop in the Netherlands and knows everything about surf equipment no matter if it’s wind, kite or wave related. He started surfing a decade ago and has been hooked ever since. Being the oldest of the team, he knows how to relax and will make sure you have the same chill factor once your holiday at Ericeira Surf House has started. His ingedrients: sun, surf, friends, home made pizza and a beer.

Noora

Hailing from the North, from Helsinki, Finland, Noora got bitten by the surf bug in 2007 in the brown waters of Scheveningen in the North Sea. Ever since, she spent all her holidays surfing. Trips to southern Europe, down under and Indonesia assured her that the lifestyle around surfing is the way to go.

With a background in the hospitality and having worked on different surf camps, Noora knows how to make one’s holiday complete.

Erwin

Erwin used to live his life around snowboarding in winter and surfing in summer, but after a bad snowboard accident he had to change directions and focus only on surfing. Having worked as product manager for different (surf) tour operators, he fell in love with Portugal. The climate, food, people and waves: it’s just perfect, especially in this part of Portugal. He knows what surfers are looking for, loves to be in the water and will make sure you do the same, even if you don’t want to.

Bram

Chef

Bram grew up in the Caribbean where he spent most of his time in the water windsurfing and surfing. After a trip to Ericeira Surf House, Bram decided to move to Portugal to continue his passion for surfing and work with the surf house crew. He is always down for a surf and ready to share his experience. With a background as a chef you won’t forget his awesome food and drinks, served to you with a big smile and island vibes!

Paula

Masseuse

If you are sore from surfing, a massage is the best way to relax your muscles. And that’s why Paula visits our house at least once a week. As a certified physiotherapist, Paula knows exactly what she is doing and makes sure you will be ready for another day of surfing. If you didn’t fall asleep in the meantime.

Sami

Surf teacher

Our surf teacher Sami used to be a professional surfer from Ericeira, before he eventually started his own surf school. He knows the different beaches and surroundings like no other and his team will make sure you’ll get the best possible surf experience, no matter what your level of surfing is. Sami has worked as a surf coach all over the world and is a certified lifeguard, so you are for sure in good hands.
