Surf Spots in Portugal

Map showing Portugal

Surf spots in Portugal get a lot of swell:

There's likely to be swell year-round  because of Portugal's geographic exposure to the North Atlantic weather patterns.

Surfing has only caught on in Portugal in the past 20 years and there are plenty of uncrowded, remote waves, waiting to be explored...as the per-capita number of surfers in minimal compared to the US or Oz, and many other countries.

We've listed the waves we know about, and we have geo-coded some of them.

For accurate surf forecasts, please geo-code your spot and send it to us...at present, many of the markers identify the beaches, but not the exact location of the surf spot.


If the particular wave you are interested in is not yet visible as an active link, or not listed or not accurately pinpointed....and you think you can share some local knowledge about it ....go ahead and add the wave to our database, or send us the correct geo-coding

Add your own information about the wave and any photographs or epic video footage you may have!
