Surf Portugal - Quick Facts
LOCATION: Europe
POPULATION: 10,500,000
NATIONALITY: Portuguese
LANGUAGE: Portuguese ( but almost everyone speaks English)
CURRENCY: Euro

Portugal has a very mild climate with solid surf often with offshore morning breezes are extremely common, making it a popular surfing destination for surfers from inside and outside Europe. Portugal has a huge variety of waves and swell size and as a result makes an ideal surfing location for surfers of every ability. It is a good place to learn to surf with lots of places offering surf lessons and packages.

Situated west of Spain, Portugal picks up north, west and south swells, making surf conditions very consistent. During winter the swell size is around the 6ft mark but can get to 15ft or more, making it a spot for those looking for challenging surf. There is surf throughout the summer months and you can expect waves of 3-5ft.



There are many different waves and surf over the whole coast so a bit of research before you go is a good idea (see the Stormrider guide Europe link at the bottom of this page). The area around Peniche is ideal as the peninsular gives the opportunity to make the best of the weather conditions. A couple of waves to check out while you are surfing in Portugal are Pedra Blanca, Supertubos and Coxos.

wave wacth portugal

Wave watch finally arrived to portugal. We already had te portuguese version of it, it is the beach cam, and it's great, ( its available in www.beachcam.pt).

for the last few months i've been surfing a lot...at least for me is a lot. I usually surfed one maybe 2 day every week, and now its something like 10 hours every weekend, and at least one more session during the week.

And my evolution has been great..i'm now having true fun inside the water..and i started to feel that now i'm really enjoying the ocean at 1% off i can take from it.

this weekend i went to ericeira..and for everybody that already know what they are doing inside the water is amazing.

For everybody else... my suggestion is costa da caparica..and if you want i can evem give you contacts for a great surf school.

for now here you have the wave watch preview
