Please note that in this part of the Atlantic you always have to wear a wetsuit due to the water temperature. A 3/2 (mm) wetsuit is advised from May to November. During the winter months, you should go for a 4/3 wetsuit and booties.
November to April can be considered as rainy season with up to 15 rainy days per month. June, July and August are usually the driest months of the year. Due to the micro climate it is often foggy in the morning, even in summer months. The average relative humidity is between 65% in summer and 78% in winter.
SURROUNDINGS / REGION
Characterization of surroundings/region
Matosinhos is in an urban center and nearby you can find some different regions and things to do and visit.
Guimaraes is a charming and historic city that makes for a fascinating day trip from Porto. Guimaraes is regarded as the birthplace of Portugal and this extensive history is reflected in the variety of national monuments and historic buildings found within the city.
Braga is a wonderful tourist destination that combines history and culture, with numerous outstanding tourist attractions. The city is often regarded as the religious centre of Portugal, and this is confirmed every hour when a cacophony of different church bells ring-out.
Situated on the edge of an extensive coastal lagoon system, Aveiro (uh-vey-roo) is a prosperous town with a good-looking centre and a youthful, energetic buzz. It's occasionally dubbed the Venice of Portugal thanks to its small network of picturesque canals. But where the Italian city has gondolas, Aveiro has moliceiros – colourful boats traditionally used for seaweed-harvesting but now used for canal cruises.
Around 280km from Oporto is a very popular destination in Galicia Spain. World Heritage Site since 1985, for centuries Santiago de Compostela has attracted visitors and pilgrims from all over the world. It is Galicia's most cosmopolitan city, but it takes it in a matter-of-fact way, which is why from the very beginning you feel like you are a part of it
