SURF CONDITIONS
Breaks directly at the main spot and at nearby spots
Carcavelos was one of the first breaks to be surfed in Portugal and due to it`s proximity to the center of Lisbon it`s usually very crowded. Fairly consistent surf throughout the tide and works with a wide variety of conditions. The predominant N/NE wind blows offshore here, making it a good option when the surf is too big and the wind too hard at the Ericeira/Peniche coastline.
Seasonal conditions
Summer (May - Sep) water temperature- around 16C air temperature- around 30C waves- meddium
Winter (Oct - Apr) water temperature- around 10C air temperature- around 16C waves- big
Crowd factor and local people
The lineup, and the beach, do get incredibly crowded, especially on the weekend, since Carcavelos is great for expert and beginner surfers alike. If you do know what you’re doing and need space, the nearby Parede offers a much more challenging rocky bottom break that’s perfect when the swell’s in.
