    So im going to portugal next week and I am going to get a board over there (anything from 6'0" to 6'6") instead of bringing or posting one and risking the damage a baggage handler could do to it.
    does anyone know any good shops in the south that has a good selection but isnt overpriced for tourists, I have looked online and all I can find is lagos surf center but I would like to look around anyway when im there. ill be in Algarve near aljezur but ill be getting there from Faro airport and I can pick one up on the way so anywhere nearby would be great
