Praia da Bordeira Spot Guide

At the southern end of Praia da Bordeira the clifftop car park overlooks a left hand point break which peels over sand in front of the rocky headland towards the rivermouth. Best from low to mid on the push, it can produce long, quality, walling waves. As the tide fills in, the rivermouth can turn on with hollow, punchy rights. Looking north the huge beach has sandbanks all along, becoming increasingly empty. This is an exposed beach frustratingly susceptible to winds. Overall one of the region's top spots.
