Waves at Aldeia Da Pedralva
The southwestern corner of the Iberian Peninsula offers a great variety of surf breaks and the warmest climate in Europe. The small, lively town of Sagres is well located to take advantage of the wide swell window of Cape St-Vincent, where the west and south coasts meet, creating a perfect corner for both beginners and experts to revel in the fun waves.
Average wintertime swells on the west coast are around 8-10ft, with 12-15ft maximum, whilst summer rarely goes flat and can get up to double overhead. In larger swells, the south coast offers perfect shelter with offshore winds. The Southern Coast is usually flat in summer but delivers great conditions in winter and the shoulder months.
Aldeia da Pedralva partner surf school offers surf lessons and surf guiding for surfers of all levels!
