Description

Rabo de Peixe - Azores Rabo de Peixe features a left-point break over a reef bottom, characterized by hollow, fast, and powerful waves. Located in the village of Rabo de Peixe, it offers instant access with public facilities available. The spot works best with swells from the North and NorthEast, particularly under South or SouthWest winds. While the wave quality has diminished due to the construction of a jetty, Rabo de Peixe still provides a unique surfing experience. It primarily breaks at lower tides, with the potential for larger swells to produce sets further out. Surfers must navigate around rocks and urchins, and localism can be an issue due to its popularity. Access involves parking at the harbour wall and paddling out from the ladders, making it a convenient yet rugged spot for those seeking adventure in the Azores.
