On the West Coast of Portugal, just an hour from the capital, Lisbon, our camp in Santa Cruz is the perfect location for campers to enjoy sun, surf and adventure.
Santa Cruz and its beaches are a great base for our Adventure and Surf Camps. Each camper will be sure to make the most of this beautiful setting choosing between one of the two base program options.
The newly constucted residence provides campers with comfortable, spacious en-suite apartments. Our private swimming pool is always a camper favorite after an amazing time at the beach.
Village Camps - International Summer Camps - General Introduction - Welcome to Camp
Dear Counsellors and staff of VC, I would like to thank you for the great care and wonderful experience your team had provided to my son. He had so much fun in the camp, and was happy with the meals and clean facilities. The counsellors are caring and professional. The daily journals and photo updates enabled parents to feel comfortable from the beginning to the end of the camp. This has been a good opportunity for my son to experience a different culture and meet new friends. Thank you again!

It is several days later and our son is still talking about Village Camps. He had so much fun, has learnt a great deal, met loads of new people and made many new friends. As a matter of fact, as we were leaving the camp last Saturday, he did not really want
to come home with us. Thank you to the Village Camps team!
