Today's score by level (at the day's best, out of 100)
Central Ericeira beach — accessible and fun. One of the most accessible spots in the area, a beach break that works at all tides. Great for surf schools and intermediate surfers improving their technique.
Autumn is the queen season. Winter brings the big sessions, spring stays very quality.
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.
Foz Lizandro 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 Foz Lizandro comes broadly from East: it's offshore, which helps shape and hold the waves. A strong onshore wind generally degrades conditions.
Around Foz Lizandro, you can also check conditions at Cave, Pedra Branca, Ribeira d'Ilhas. Compare the scores, wind and swell direction before choosing where to surf.
