Coastal Surf Seekers. Surf-curious remote workers drawn to ocean-view workspaces, easy beach access, and a laid-back coastal lifestyle in a renowned Portuguese surf town.
Ocean Views. Panoramic sea views from both private rooms and the coworking space create a uniquely inspiring, dream-like environment that guests consistently highlight as a defining highlight of their stay.
Surf Culture. Surfing defines the coliving's identity, with on-site equipment rental at the lowest prices in town and readily available surf lessons making waves accessible to all levels.
Beach Proximity. The ocean is just a 5–10 minute walk away, making spontaneous swims, peaceful strolls, and sunset watching a natural and effortless part of daily life.
Nomadico Ericeira is a surf-and-work coliving spread across 2 homes — the Sea View Hub and Laura's Home — in a charming Portuguese coastal village and world surf reserve. With ocean views, a pool, fiber-optic WiFi, and a dedicated coworking space, it blends productive remote work with laid-back surf culture, shared dinners, and a vibrant expat community.
Nomadico's guiding principle is to build community with people, not for people. At Ericeira, all homes are connected as one community — beyond spontaneous sunset and surf plans, weekly events are co-created with everyone's ideas, guided by a dedicated community manager who keeps the energy flowing and makes sure guests feel right at home.
Days flow from morning surfs and cowork sessions to shared dinners that bring everyone together. Weekends often mean surf lessons at Ribeira d'Ilhas, hikes to Coxos, or day trips to Sintra and Nazaré. The community finds its rhythm in the balance of the sea: active, social, and adventurous, while remaining grounded in meaningful connections and shared experiences.
Nomadico kicked off in 2022 when founder Bill fell in love with Madeira at a local guesthouse — it had everything except a community of nomads, so he built one.
The Ericeira location grew out of that same vision: teaming up with local partners — Linette, who manages the Sea View Hub, and Laura (and Chais), who swapped city life for sea breezes and opened their guest house to share their love for travel, surf, and community — to turn underutilized local homes into vibrant coliving spaces for remote workers and digital nomads.
Ericeira is a charming Portuguese coastal village and World Surf Reserve on the Atlantic coast, about 40 km northwest of Lisbon. The town is known for its cobblestone streets, traditional whitewashed buildings, vibrant surf culture, and a thriving digital nomad scene. The area offers a relaxed, community-oriented atmosphere with a mix of local Portuguese life and an international nomad crowd filling the cafés and streets.
The coliving sits on the south side of Ericeira, offering ocean views and direct proximity to the sea. Foz do Lizandro beach is a 10-minute walk away, and the old town center with its bars and restaurants is about a 20–25 minute walk. Guests describe the location as peaceful and close to nature, with a viewpoint and street fitness area right across the street.
Guest reviews highlight the balance of tranquility and accessibility — many describe it as a 'perfect location by the sea' with plenty of peace and quiet, while noting the town center requires a short walk or a cheap Bolt ride (around €3.50). Lisbon is only a 40-minute drive away, making it easy for weekend city escapes.
