Free child care (2-12 years) during the morning training session has been highly appreciated and we are definitely repeating the concept this year. Be able to fully focus on your own training and then have some quality time with the kids on the gigantic playground that the beach actually is! We also have a children’s hangout area in connection to the dinner restaurant so parents can socialize with other camp participants after their children have finished their dinner.

Praia da Rocha is located at the coast of Algarve and has perfectly white, powdery, soft and 100 % dirt free sand. The beach is 1.5 km long and 250 meters (!) wide. It is a charming Portuguese coastal town, which has tremendously beautiful sunsets and the beach is surrounded by dramatically sandstone cliffs.

The accommodation is a stunning 5-star establishment called the Algarve Casino Hotel and is located right next to the beach. With its own access directly to the courts, it also features a large pool that you can use for recreation and relaxation while watching others train. The breakfast and dinner buffet is magnificent and the combination of high quality food paired with a spectacular view of the beach and ocean is nothing but magical.
