Description
Leça - Leça da Palmeira, Portugal Leça features a beach break with both right and left waves over a sandy bottom. The spot works at all tides and is best with swells from the North, Northwest, and West, complemented by winds from the Southeast and East. Be cautious of rocks and pollution, especially near the dock on the left side. Located near Leça da Palmeira, this surf spot is easily accessible within 15 minutes from Porto. While it caters to beginners with a laid-back vibe, it can get crowded on weekends. The waves can be fun and ordinary, offering opportunities for barrels on good days, particularly in the morning with offshore winds. However, be prepared for challenging paddles and strong currents. If conditions are flat, it’s likely that other nearby spots are too, so checking the surf forecast is advisable before heading out.
