Additional Surfing Infos
 When then swell reaches 1.5m, the point break left in the harbour starts working; respect the locals you will have no problems, but when the aformentioned harbour left starts working it can get really stressfull in the water.
It's completly flat during the summer, and only works with the not so common southerly swells, that appear mainly with stormy conditions.
  Overview
  Atmosphere It can be a cool atmosphere, if you surf in weekdays, during the morning, when you can enjoy nice waves in a very beautifull town.
  General Nice spot, the beachbreak is average quality (can get really bad or really good...), but the harbour left pointbreak is a really good wave; in the 2000/2001 winter we got classic 3m waves there!

wrong description
Hey wannasurf, you changed Sesimbra's description, now it's incorrect. The wave breaks at the worst case at least 50 days a year, and as much as 100 in a good winter. It's definetely not 1 star, 2 minimum, but realisticaly it's a regional classic (3 star). So put this as it should.

not bad
Good when south stormy swells hit the coast... maybe it's the only plave where u can surf at all. Water is very polluted, please keep your mouth shut :-))

sesimbra sucks
Peço imensa desculpa plo que venho aqui dizer,mas ja cono outra pessoa referiu, aquele fotografia de um bodyboarder a fazer uma esquerda perfeita,e mentira.vivo perto de sesimbra e quando (mto mto raramente) sesimbra da ondas passo sempre por la e dou uma surfada, mas nunca vi ondas tao perfeitas como aquela da fotografia. alem disso akela nakele dia devia estar mto frio e e imposivel alguem surfar d calçoes e d lycra.ESte spot tal como outros no wannasurf deviam ser retirados, visto que ondas raramente aparecem.e deixem se da onda parva do localismo.tudo e de todos.respeitem e serao respeitados. Boas ondas atenciosamente:anonimo
