Who made this guide

I live in Ericeira and I surf these waves. This guide is what I’d tell a friend coming over for a week: where to paddle out, where not to, and where to eat afterwards.

I’m a travel journalist and I write for magazines in Portugal and abroad. I’ve covered international surf events, and when I was younger I even entered a few national contests.

Questions

What level is it for?

For people who already surf. Each spot sheet gives the level, so you know where to paddle out and where you’re better off watching.

How do I get the guide?

By email, straight after you pay, with the guide as a PDF and the map link. If it hasn’t arrived within ten minutes, check your spam folder or write to me at info@marleneonthemove.com.

Do I need data on my phone?

Not to read the guide: the PDF stays saved on your phone. The map opens in Google Maps and needs data. The guide has a link to a discounted eSIM.

Can I print it?

You can, but it was designed for a phone screen. Each page is one phone screen.

What language is it in?

English and Portuguese. You get both versions.
