Praia da Calheta beach Canoe Forecast

Calheta · Portugal

Praia da Calheta beach scores 74/100 for canoe today at its best ability level (expert). The beach faces SE. A purpose-built artificial beach on Madeira's south-west coast, enclosed by twin breakwaters that create a flat, sheltered lagoon — calm water suited to swimming, snorkelling, canoeing, kayaking, paddleboarding, and windsurfing rather than surf or kite, which are practised nearby at Jardim do Mar. Access is free; diving is prohibited except in designated areas. Lifeguards are present in the main bathing season, and the beach holds Blue Flag accreditation.
