Description
Cagalhotos - Portugal
Cagalhotos features powerful right-hand waves breaking over a sandy bottom. This spot requires a north swell to connect the outside waves with the inside, creating long rides. It is located 1 km south of Espinho Casino and is accessible via a short walk (5-15 minutes).
The atmosphere at Cagalhotos is unique, situated in front of a fisherman village where nets often cross the lineup. While the waves can be fun, be cautious of the pollution from a nearby river. The spot works best at low and mid tide, with rising and falling tides, and is ideal when the wind blows from the southeast, east, or northeast. Expect few surfers during the week, but it can get crowded on weekends. Be aware of localism and man-made dangers such as buoys.
