Stormrider Description
Stretching away to the south of the Tejo River is a 30 km strip of coast that is the most consistent zone for Lisbon's surfers. The northern section of this coast is built up and a number of jetties provide variety and stability to the sand bars. Look for the low tide lefts at Covo do Vapor and Rio plus the 7 jetties referred to as CDS. Further south, check Praia da Rainha for average, open beachbreak.
Polluted, crowded, rippy, locals at Vapor and parking charges apply.

This graph shows the percentage of days that had a ridable wind swell (7 seconds period or more) or groundswell (10 seconds period or more) of over 3ft. It also shows the dominant wind direction. Not all of these days will neccessarily give great surf, and very short lived wind swells or longer period secondary swells may produce surf not recorded, but it gives a clear idea of the seasonal trend and a rough guide to the chances of scoring something ridable.
