Intermediate : Nothing to surf today. Rest those arms.
Today's score by level (at the day's best, out of 100)
Bolonia and its monumental dune are exposed to W–SW Atlantic swells, with a degree of filtering from the Strait of Gibraltar's geography.
Autumn and winter deliver the best conditions, with long powerful swells from the north.
Good level required. You can stand, paddle and read a peak. When it fires, better know what you're doing.
Easy beach access, parking usually nearby. Ask locally about seasonal currents.
Wear an appropriate wetsuit. Scout the currents before you paddle out. Respect the locals and right-of-way. Check weather and tides.
Bolonia is rather recommended for intermediate surfers. If you're a beginner, prefer a surf school, a small swell and a suitable tide, or look for a more sheltered nearby spot.
The ideal wind at Bolonia comes broadly from East: it's offshore, which helps shape and hold the waves. A strong onshore wind generally degrades conditions.
Around Bolonia, you can also check conditions at Los Caños, El Palmar, Ancão. Compare the scores, wind and swell direction before choosing where to surf.
