Historical data

Location guide

Espinho, Portugal, is quite the hidden gem when it comes to the world of surfing. Situated in the northern part of the country, it boasts a striking beachscape that sets up a perfect stage for avid surfers. As a famed surfing spot, it attracts both locals and tourists from across the globe looking for a thrilling and challenging surfing experience. One of the reasons why Espinho holds a special place among surfers is the consistent surf breaks it presents throughout the year. Thanks to the offshore winds blowing from the east, the waves break to their right, making it an ideal spot for regular foot surfers. Due to the unique position of the beach, the surf is finest during the low tide, which is when the right-hand side waves are particularly long and exciting. Surfers would agree that one of the challenges of this location is the strength and power of the waves. The Atlantic Ocean doesn't hold back when delivering formidable waves, which can range anywhere from 1 to 3 meters in height on good days. It is this attribute that makes this spot a haven for experienced surfers seeking the thrill of riding the powerful hollow tubes. Despite the powerful surf, Espinho's sandy bottom also makes it relatively safe, helping to mitigate the risk of injuries from colliding with a sharp reef or rocks. This, however, does not discount the importance of taking safety precautions. The strong rips and currents can sometimes make it tricky for even the bravest of surfers. Last but not least, the quality of the water in Espinho is noticeably clean due to the town's active efforts in maintaining and preserving the natural environment. While paying a visit, surfers often share their appreciation for the clear, sparkling waves that let them engage in their passion with an added peace of mind. In conclusion, Espinho is more than just a beautiful coastal town in Portugal. It's a stage where the dance with the Atlantic Ocean's powerful waves takes place. It embodies both the thrill, and charm that makes surfing an unforgettable experience.
