Wanted Board Rentals provides surfboard rental services and related equipment within Lisbon and surrounding coastal areas.


2. Booking and Payment

When placing a booking through our website, customers are required to pay a 50% deposit to confirm the reservation.

We aim to keep our cancellation policy clear and fair.

Free Cancellation

Customers may cancel their booking up to 120 hours (5 days) before the scheduled rental date and receive a full refund of the deposit paid.

Late Cancellation

If the booking is cancelled less than 120 hours (5 days) before the rental date, the 50% deposit will not be refunded, as the equipment has already been reserved for the booking.

No-Shows

If the customer does not appear at the agreed time and location without prior notice, the deposit will be retained.


5. Rental Period

The rental period begins at the agreed pick-up time and ends at the agreed return time.

Customers are responsible for returning the equipment on time and in the same condition in which it was received, excluding normal wear caused by appropriate use.

Late returns may result in additional rental charges.

During the rental period, the customer is responsible for the rented equipment.

Customers agree to:

  • Use the equipment responsibly

  • Avoid leaving equipment unattended in unsafe locations

  • Return all rented items at the agreed time

  • Inform us immediately if any damage occurs

Any damage, loss, or theft of equipment during the rental period may result in repair or replacement charges according to our Damage Policy.


7. Damage Coverage Option

This coverage protects against certain accidental damages as described in our Damage Policy.

Damage coverage includes:

  • Small and medium dings

  • Broken leash

  • Up to two broken fins (must be returned)
