Bica surf guide

Bica is a surf spot located in the suburb of São Pedro. It's known for having two right point breaks, with Bica being the first one you hit coming from the west. The wave here can be pretty long, making it a decent choice for longboarders. While it might look appealing most of the time, it can be a bit more hit-or-miss once you're actually out there. Just a heads-up, it tends to get crowded, so be prepared to share the waves.

The optimal swell direction for Bica is from the west, but it can also handle swells coming from the south and northwest. This spot works well with swell sizes around 2 feet (about 0.6 meters) and breaks over uneven reef and sand. The waves tend to be right-hand point breaks, which is something to keep in mind. For the best sessions, aim for low tide and when the wind comes from the northeast. It's worth noting that this spot is more suited for intermediate surfers, so if you're still getting the hang of things, you might want to consider your options.

As a fairly consistent spot on Costa Estoril, Bica can work well throughout the year, but don't expect perfection every time. The combination of the setting and the wave type can lead to some fun rides, but it might not always live up to your expectations, so stay flexible with your surf plans.
