More about Fonte da Telha surfspot

General: The waves tend to be smaller at this sleepy resort than at Costa da Caparica, so it can be a good option when the swell jacks up. Sand banks are fickle - can occasionally be excellent, but low may close out and high can can be a shore dump - best in between. Loads of room to explore. Tides: Not dead low or dead high Size: Waist to head high. Wind: NE, E Swell: Big NW or W, SW Bottom: Sand Paddling: Easy when small, can lack channels as size picks up. Spot Rating: Long stretch of cliff backed beach with shifty peaks. Tends to lack really defined banks but can have fun walls that close-out at high tide.

Good for all abilities.

Plenty of car parks in town, and parking places along the beachside road heading south.

Best December to February.

Crowd Factor: Lots of room to spread out. Local Vibe: Relaxed.

OK, can be polluted after rain

Rips when bigger.
