Location

Praia da Rocha in Portugal, located along the Algarve, is one of the largest sports beaches in Europe. This expansive sandy beach sits directly on the Atlantic and in close proximity to the beautiful, distinctive rocky coastline. Beyond beach volleyball, you can enjoy leisurely hours in the stunning ambiance of the cliffs. The beach provides ample space for sports activities, attracting numerous surf and other water sports providers. Where on earth if not there should we host one of our beach volleyball camps? On-site, we have various information about all other sports activities, and in the evenings, there are plenty of bars to explore if desired.

Monday to Thursday: Training (morning)
Monday to Friday: Tournaments (afternoon, all day on Friday)
Saturday: Departure after breakfast

Saturday serves as both the arrival and departure day of the camp week. At the beginning of your camp, you can check in with our event team from 3:00 PM and use the day to settle in, explore the area, or engage in free play on the courts. On Sunday morning, we offer an optional group excursion, or you can choose to use the courts for free play.

In the afternoon, starting at 3:00 PM, we officially kick off with a welcome session and our introductory tournament, providing a relaxed atmosphere for participants to get to know each other.


SPORT
Training sessions take place every morning from Monday to Thursday (in two blocks, allowing parents, for example, to train at different times). Various tournaments are held in the afternoons from Monday to Thursday. Friday is reserved entirely for our grand final tournament. You can participate for free in all our tournaments, whether with a camp pass or training pass, upon timely registration. And who knows, perhaps there will be an additional match between the coaches in the evening after the tournaments, which you can watch with a refreshing drink in hand. Of course, there are always enough courts available for free play during training and tournaments (for this, you need the camp pass).

Add-on: On Monday, outside regular training and tournament times, we also offer special beach volleyball workshops for a reasonable fee.

Events

Not only on the court but also beside the courts, we have a lot to offer at our Beach Volleyball Camp at Praia da Rocha. For those who haven't had enough after a long day at the beach, evenings bring the promise of sparkling bars and other vibrant venues. To ensure the special Beach me feeling lingers beyond the training sessions, we always aim to gather at a common location in the evenings to get to know each other better and exchange experiences. The local hosts always enjoy welcoming us and offer cool drinks in a laid-back atmosphere at fair prices. At the end of each week, we come together once again to turn the night into day and let loose at the legendary final party.

Those of you eager to explore the surroundings of Portimão may discover small wonderful beaches and charming towns with a fantastic atmosphere.

Additionally, you have the opportunity to play billiards in the spacious lobby, use the in-house pool or fitness room, or relax in the modern spa area. You can choose between different room types - whether single or double rooms, with or without sea views, or even a family suite - almost anything is possible here.

Things you still need to take care of

ARRIVAL

Generally, you are responsible for organizing your own arrival and departure. We offer transfer services between Faro Airport / Portimão train station and our camp. You will receive all further information during the booking process. For a quick arrival, we generally recommend a flight to Faro, or for those looking to save, Lisbon. (Good to know: From Lisbon, there's a beautiful and cost-effective train connection to Portimão. If flights to Faro are too expensive, you can make a detour via Lisbon and travel to our camp by train). You are also welcome to arrive 1-2 days earlier or depart later to secure your suitable or most affordable flight. In addition to cost savings, you also have the advantage of using our courts for some games or exploring the Praia da Rocha area 1-2 days before or after the camp. Transfer service available from Faro Airport and Portimão train station.
