google earth Coordinates
lat=37.7603587634, lon=-8.74000678

Opened for guests from july 21st


The farm is located at “Costa Vicentina” where this nice mellow family of surfers and yogis Deco, Filipa, Martin, Mathews and Luca live. With the help of Casa Vinyasa and friends, they are making a project that will aloud guests to come, stay and learn to live a more relaxed and mellow life style.

Our Mission is to bring people together with Ashtanga Yoga, Surfing, Arts, music, education and sustainability. To stay with us at the yoga surfcamp the daily Yoga class is the only must. After Yoga we propose many activities that our guests are free to join, learn or share if they want. We want to make sure that you and the people living in the land can have privacy to enjoy the tranquillity and quietness of Alentejo.

It is your option to engage with the people and the land, you can come Practice Yoga and go to the beach all day if you feel like. But you can also stay, read a book on the tree house. Take rest at the hammock etc. You can join us and help building the camp and learn permacultural skills. The environment is communitarian and we encourage people to relate and be creative doing things together from cooking and cleaning, working the land, to building, playing Music etc. but it is spontaneous and optional, as long it is flowing, you take.

Workshops:

We integrate Ashtanga Yoga classes with specific workshops (list coming soon)

Yoga:

Daily Morning and afternoon Mysore Style practice with Authorized Teachers Tarik van Prehn, Pamela luther and assistents.

Daily Dinamic Yoga style by Filipa Martorel.

Surfing:

We invite people to learn surf with us in a relaxed and natural way, that means, we give you a wood surf board and teach some basics, the rest is You and Nature. If you prefer you can integrate Mil-Fontes surf school they will pick you up at the camp after Yoga practice.

Healing therapies

You can book Thai and Ayurvedic massage if you want… you can also learn to practice it…

Camping:

We have an eco-camping site for 20 people only; we provide the tents on booking, eco-toilets, showers, and cooking area. We have solar and wood ovens and some gas ovens for cloudy days. There is a traditional brick oven for making bread, pizzas etc.

We are creating different environments in the land so you can enjoy your time alone in the property or engaging in group activities.

Food:

We encourage people to consume organic products only; we are currently working on the soil… so for this year we are not producing any fresh veggies. There is some local organic production but it is limited. We go Lisbon once a week to buy organic food, You can make a list and we can buy for you also. If organic products is not a must for you there are many super markets and local shops where you can buy your food. We discourage people to cook any non vegetarian food in the camp. There are many traditional local restaurants where you can eat non-veg if that is the case.


We encourage people to prepare food and cook together, you can book your place with meals included if you want. You can also buy and cook for your self. If you follow a specific diet or have any food intolerance etc. you must take responsibility for and prepare the food for your self. We will use organic and vegetarian products and dairy products also.

Please contact us for any questions, we will be posting pictures, prices and travel info soon.

Cre8tive Soulutions permacultural project

After two months of hard work... the magic Quad is ready to flow... or fly I hope... 10 more days to go when the resine becomes more solid...

Yogasurf hand craft workshop

Cre8tive soulutions is the name we gave to the creative energy generated by daily traditional Ashtanga Yoga practice that flows from the soul and transforms it self in wonderful ecologic art crafts. The project integrates Surfing, Yoga and permaculture, it is mainly educational with the view of a healthier life style and sustainable living. We welcome any one willing to learn to teach or to share this life style with us.

The hand crafts workshop goal is to develop and research ecological and low impact materials to be used in surfing and yoga products, using that as an educational tool for young and old, using surfing and Yoga as a practical and philosophical basis where everything unfold. We are currently making wood surf boards and the organic bee surfing wax. After the workshop is finished we will develop art made from surfboards leftovers. Organic clothing, skate boards, hand surfboards for body surfing, cork yoga mats, surf and yoga bags, cork wet suits etc. the workshop is integrated in a permacultural project where for example the wood powder is used in the eco-toilets to become fresh humus for the farms veggies and plants.

If you want to join us this summer to practice Yoga and Surfing please leave a message or send an e-mail to yogasurf@gmail.com
