Sheltered bay south of Aljezur with a high-quality right-hand point on the north side. The Algarve's most reliable winter wave.
Sheltered beach beneath cliffs just east of Cabo de São Vicente. Quality lefts and rights when it's too small or too windy elsewhere.
Cliff-bound beach just north of Cordoama with hollow, fast peaks. Picks up huge swell and shouldn't be underestimated.
Powerful beach below dramatic cliffs north of Sagres. Heavy peaks when the swell is up — for confident surfers only.
