Praia da Rocha in Portugal in the Algarve is one of the largest sports beaches in Europe. The huge sandy beach is located directly on the Atlantic Ocean and in the immediate vicinity of the beautiful, typical rocky coast. Accordingly, beautiful hours can be enjoyed away from the beach volleyball in the great ambience of the cliffs. The beach offers an incredible amount of space for sports activities, so that many surfing providers as well as providers for other water sports can be found here. If not here, where else should we organize one of our beach volleyball camps? On site we have various information about all other sports possibilities and in the evening you can find one or the other bar if you want.
Here you can find more information and impressions about the beach in the Algarve: Praia da Rocha

In Portugal, you will be at camp with up to 22 other participants per week. The group size has been deliberately kept small to create a family atmosphere and give all participants maximum beach volleyball input. This gives all participants and the Beach me team time to get to know each other and exchange ideas before and after training.
~ 46 participants per week

Food
Our hotel prices all include half board - a delicious and rich breakfast buffet and a varied dinner buffet with local and international dishes are therefore included. Each dinner also includes a soft drink, a beer or a glass of wine for you. Lunch, however, is not included in the hotel price. For this we have a cooperation with a restaurant directly on the beach. The lunch offer of Casalinho awaits you with fair prices and a direct view on our beach volleyball courts. Water is available for filling on the beach during the entire camp. To save the environment from plastic waste, please bring your own water bottle to the camp (alternatively you can purchase a water bottle from us).

Events
Not only on but also off the court we have a lot to offer at our beach volleyball camp at Praia da Rocha. Those who have not yet exhausted themselves enough after training in the morning can explore the surroundings of Portimão in the afternoon, for example, with small dream beaches and beautiful small towns with great flair, simply relax on the beach and lookforward to relaxing bars and other locations in the evening. So that the special beach me feeling remains after the training, we always try to go to a common location in the evening to get to know each other better and to exchange ideas. The hosts always look forward to the Beach me crew and offer cool drinks in a relaxed atmosphere at fair prices. At the end of each week, we turn the night into day again and really let it rip at the legendary closing party.

Climate
The best time to travel along the Algarve is from April to November. In April/May it slowly gets warmer, temperatures hover around a pleasant 20°C and there is almost no precipitation. Also the sea heats up slowly and has a refreshing 19°C at this time. Best conditions for relaxed beach volleyball training.
Accommodation
Hotel Jupiter
The Hotel Jupiter is in no way inferior to the Hotel da Rocha in terms of proximity to the camp. Here, too, you sleep in a 4* hotel a stone's throw away from the great beach and the fields. In addition, you have the possibility to play billiards in the spacious lobby, to use the in-house pool or fitness room or to relax in the modern spa area. You can choose between different room types - single or double, with or without sea view or even family suite - almost everything is possible here. Even if you are traveling alone, you can share a room if necessary. We will then try to book you in a room together with another participant.
If you have any questions, just contact us. You can also find more information about the hotel here:

ARRIVAL
In general, the arrival and departure is organized by you independently. We offer transfer services between Faro airport / Portimão train station and our camp. You will receive all further information in the booking process. We are always happy to help you find suitable flights and/or other transport options - just send us an email or call us. For a quick arrival we generally recommend a flight to Faro or for budget travellers Lisbon (Good to know: From Lisbon there is a nice and cheap train connection to Portimão. So if the flights to Faro are too expensive for you, you can make a detour via Lisbon and travel to our camp by train).
+++TIPP+++
You can also arrive 1-2 days earlier or leave 1-2 days later and secure your suitable or even the cheapest flight. Besides the cost saving you have the advantage that you can use our fields for gambling or explore the surroundings of Praia da Rocha 1-2 days before or after the camp.
