CSC
01 / The idea underneath

We make it
hard
on purpose.

Every wave pool sells the same thing — easy waves, on demand. We are not interested. Take the hunt, the paddle-out, the difficulty out of surfing and you are left with competence in a box: availability, and connection to nothing.

The pool is not here to protect you from the ocean. It is here to prepare you to use it.

The Cove is training. The Atlantic — twelve minutes away, cold and honest and indifferent — is the exam. We keep the effort in, because effort is the only thing that builds a real surfer, and a real life. We don't cross the ocean. It lets us through.

We don't sell belonging. We attract the people who already carry the water, and let everyone else rise to meet them.

Easy makes tourists. Hard makes members.

03 / Location

On the Cascais coast.

Minutes from the Atlantic, half an hour from Lisbon. Close enough to live around, far enough to feel like its own coast.

04 · The founding offer

Three ways in.

One club, three memberships. Reserve your founding place with 10% today and pay the rest monthly across ten years, from opening. Founders hold half the opening price — the lowest the club will ever offer.

Founding
Local
Opening €60,000 · Founding €30,000
€250 / month
10% today — €3,000 · then €250 × 120 months from opening
or €30,000 in full (save €3,000)
Full club and Cove access, at member hours and member rates. The everyday membership. No residence.
Founding
Traveller
Opening €120,000 · Founding €60,000
€500 / month
10% today — €6,000 · then €500 × 120 months from opening
or €60,000 in full (save €6,000)
Fourteen residence nights a year for ten years, first pick of peak-season weeks, and the widest guest allowance.
The monthly is the purchase instalment. On top, €100 / month in club dues (CPI-linked) — bringing the all-in to €350 · €475 · €600 a month across the ten years, after which the purchase is complete and only the €100 dues continue. Each membership is limited to 1,000 households. Membership is held in your name for life. A membership instalment plan — not a cancellable subscription, and not an offer of a financial instrument.

06 / The year

The tide sets the calendar.

The year turns through three seasons, each with its own reason to be here. Residence weeks move with them — take them yourself, share them with family, or release them to the club.

Sun Peak
Summer · Jun–Sep

Long days, warm water, the family here. The weeks everyone wants — held by priority and rotation.

Swell Peak
Autumn & winter

The Atlantic wakes and the real surfers come. A different peak, for a different tribe — and December, a second summer.

Dawn Peak
Spring & shoulder

Quiet mornings, clean lines, the coast to yourself. The easiest weeks to book — and for many, the best of the year.

How the weeks are booked

Traveller books first — first pick of the Sun Peak weeks, by rotation.

Global books next — Swell or Dawn Peak by default, and Sun Peak when open.

Sun Peak rotates year to year, so no member holds the same summer week forever.

If you can't use a week

Give it to your family — your week, in their hands.

Release it to the club — any value returned is on the terms in the rules.

Split it — part now, part later, rather than one fixed block.

07 / Your membership

Held in your name. Kept for your family.

A membership is not a subscription and not a room. It is a lifetime membership, registered in your name — your place in the club, with access for you and your household to everything the club is.

Held in your name

A lifetime membership, registered in your name. It continues for life while the membership remains in good standing.

Transferable

Transfer it or pass it to family — subject to club approval, full payment and the membership rules. A 10% transfer fee applies.

Beyond the residence years

The residence nights run ten years. The membership continues beyond them, for life.

The details

Dues — €100 a month, CPI-linked, funding the club. Not credited back.

Household — principal member, partner and children through age 24. Young Adult membership is available from 25, subject to approval.

Use & costs

Usage — Wavegarden sessions from €60/hour (subject to final pricing); residence cleaning and service charged when used.

After year ten — residence stays become separately bookable and payable; membership continues for life.

Land owned outright, permits in place, masterplan locked; the 62-module Wavegarden Cove is the largest in Portugal, built on technology proven worldwide. Founder terms are limited to the first 500 accepted applications and close 30 March 2027 — whichever comes first. Reservation and membership are governed by the membership agreement, including withdrawal rights and remedies for material delay; the reservation becomes non-refundable only after any applicable statutory withdrawal period. Indicative; not an offer of a financial instrument.
08 / The invitation

You do not buy
your way in.

Cascais Surf Club is by invitation. Members bring members. A committee decides. The water does the rest. There is no purchase button — only a protocol.
