Costa da Caparica - Portugal Costa da Caparica features a beach break with both right and left waves over a sandy bottom. The waves are known for being fast, powerful, and fun, making it suitable for various skill levels. The spot works at all tides, with optimal conditions arising from swell directions of Northwest, West, Southwest, and South, complemented by favorable wind from the North, Southeast, and East. This extensive stretch of coastline offers ample space for surfers, with the best banks often forming near walkways and dune cut-throughs. While the surf can be enjoyable on small to medium days, it may close out during larger swells, so monitoring conditions is crucial. Access is straightforward, with parking available near local amenities. The crowd tends to be busy during the week and weekends, but the atmosphere remains relaxed, especially outside peak season, which runs from September to May. Various boards, including shortboards and longboards, are suitable for this versatile surf spot.
