Description
It´s a place for all backpackers, surfers, people travelling alone or in small groups.
Our hostel, totally renovated in the late 90´s, is composed of 3 mixed dorm rooms for 4 guests each and 2double room, a fully equipped kitchen and two bathrooms. It allows travellers to have a good night´s sleep, to prepare their own meals, to do the laundry etc.

We have a nice lounge where you can enjoy a DVD or simply relax in the company of a good book. We also offer you 24 hours free internet, and surfboards and bicycles to rent.

Peniche is privileged in several aspects, one of which is its wonderful seaside. This Peninsula is known worldwide for its perfect conditions for surfing. Here you can surf every day whatever the direction of the wind or swells. It´s perfect for all kinds of surfers. If you´re a beginner we can help you find the perfect surf school to improve your surfing. If you´re already an expert, you should come and enjoy the miles of great waves along our coast.

The road to the Carvoeiro Cape is an unforgettable sight with exotic and rare scenery and geological formations, designed by the sea and the actions of time which have created a work of art. The Berlangas Islands are always present within this vast panorama.

Peniche, land of fishermen, has magnificent seafood.. Its specialities are fresh fish, Fish Stew and the famous "Sweated" Lobster or a simple grilled sardine.

The Region has many colours: the green of the vineyards, the blue of the sea and the golden sands of the beaches. It's a territory full of intense luminosity where the sea coast and the countryside pair up to offer a pleasant climate all year long.
