Description
Arrifana - Portugal
Arrifana features a powerful right point break with a sandy bottom interspersed with rocks. The waves can reach heights of over 4.5 meters, presenting a challenging experience for advanced surfers. The spot works well at all tides, with optimal conditions during rising and falling tides, making it a reliable choice for those seeking adrenaline-pumping surf.
Nestled in a picturesque crescent-shaped bay, Arrifana is popular among both locals and tourists, often frequented by surf schools. The beach provides some shelter from larger swells, making it accessible for a range of surfers, from beginners to seasoned pros. However, caution is advised due to rips and submerged rocks, particularly near the point. The prime surfing season is winter, especially from December to February, when swells peak. With easy parking and quick access from Aljezur, Arrifana remains a favored destination for those looking to ride its formidable waves.
