Poça surf guide

Poça is a surf spot that offers a mix of conditions suitable for many surfers. It's known for being fairly consistent, especially around mid-tide, and it's definitely more user-friendly compared to nearby Bolina. The vibe here is chill, making it a popular choice among local surfers and visitors alike.

The surf at Poça can be described as a mix of reef and sand breaks. It works best with a swell from the west, but you can also catch some fun waves from the south and northwest. The spot handles swell sizes around 2ft (about 0.6m), and you’ll find the waves break both left and right. Generally, the take-off can be a bit hollow, leading into a mellower wall, which is great for intermediate surfers looking to work on their skills. Ideal conditions usually come with a northeast wind and mid-tide, so check the forecast before heading out.

When you're at Poça, you can expect some uneven reef sections that add a bit of challenge to your session. Make sure to keep your eyes on the swell and tide patterns to maximize your experience. Overall, it's a solid spot for those wanting to catch some waves and enjoy a laid-back surf day.
