Description
Cantinho da Baia - Praia do Baleal
Cantinho da Baia is a fun intermediate beach break featuring both right and left-hand waves over a sandy bottom. This spot works best at high tide during a rising tide with a northwest swell and favorable winds from the northeast, east, or northwest. Access is straightforward, with parking available near the beach bars and instant access to the surf.
Known as the 'corner of the bay', Cantinho da Baia offers a lively atmosphere, especially during summer months when surf schools populate the area. The crescent-shaped beach comes alive with clean waves, making it a reliable choice for surfers. While it can get ultra crowded in August, the laid-back vibe attracts both locals and travelers. The ideal surfing conditions are typically found in autumn and spring, providing a great experience for those looking to enjoy the surf and social scene.
