Popular destination for the Lisbon surf community, this huge expanse of sand is home to some quality waves. The northern stretch has regular groynes that trap sand and help sculpt reliable sandbars. Waves are either long walls for top to bottom surfing, or short and hollow. Can be heavy in bigger swells. A regular contest venue. Each section has a committed crew - further south the crowds thin and water quality improves.
