Praia Rosa is a surf spot located in a beautiful setting that attracts surfers looking for a range of conditions. The beach is known for its decent exposure, especially at the northern end, where surfers often find a crowd. It's a popular spot, so be prepared for some company on the good days.
The surf at Rosa can be enjoyable, especially for beginners. The best swell direction is Southeast, with waves also coming in from the East and South. The beach handles swell sizes well, anywhere from about 0.6 meters (2 feet) up to larger conditions. You'll find both left and right-breaking waves, which break over sand. The ideal conditions are with low to mid to high tide and a west wind, making it easier to catch some fun waves.
If you’re a beginner, you’ll find smaller swell rollers at the southern end, making it a great place to practice. It might get crowded on weekends and good surf days, but if you’re looking for less crowded options, consider checking out Praia do Luz or the area back towards the port.
