Good winter surf
From November to April this is simply a great spot for surfing, with a big variety of waves. It does however have the worst localism in Portugal with lots of trouble making locals.

Anyone that knows the spot: Have you ever experienced strong currents in this spot?

Wicked winter
Used 2 come here every summer... last few years it aint that good... no more beach(sand) and the ocean (july/august) is flat most of the time.. and then this winterday(december) i finally saw some incredible, some sick waves!! Well worth it! (check out the last foto's from nr16 - !)

Praia do Castelo
Bom sitio para todos os surfistas. Ondas que atingem 1 metro, poderosas, ordenadas, propocionam um bela sessão de surf. Ideal para bodyboards.

SOUL
The mellow waves, the bars, the beautiful girls and the relaxt athmosphere, unforgetable. EWhen you go there, take an old car and don't bring all your belongings, it's to tempting for the locals that actually life in townships at the beach.

good spot for bodyboards!
I've surfed there few days in june 2001. I was on trip in Lisboa (I'm french).
This is a quite good spot. The wave is powerful hollow and very fast. The waves I've surfed were 4 to 6 feet high.
If you have balls, you can make easily aerial on this wave!
But be careful landing can be rude.
Locals are difficults to deal. I've repected priorities but I've been taxed a lot of times!
Anyway it is a good experience and the spot was good.
If you go to Lisboa try this spot!

Cova do Vapor
Try out the only world class quality wave in the Costa da caparica area, Cova do Vapor, be wise and respect the locals cuz they won t respect you anyway, but if you catch Cova early in the morning you might catch the launching pads of you life, careful on the landings it´s a wedgy wave, for body-boarding!In the low tide you can get some sick left barreling tubes, good for surf but still very hollow!It s still kind of a secret spot but easy to find!
