Praia do Guincho Kayak Forecast

Ponta da Galé · Portugal

Praia do Guincho scores 77/100 for kayak today at its best ability level (expert). The beach faces W. A wild, exposed Atlantic beach break in a natural park, with a sandy, shifting-sandbar bottom and rocks flanking both sides of the bay. Surfable year-round, best September-May, while strong summer N-NW winds make it a venue for kitesurfing and windsurfing rather than surf. Entry/exit are hard due to strong currents, rocks and gusty winds, unsuitable for inexperienced swimmers. Kitesurfing is restricted to after 18:00 in summer. Lifeguards patrol in summer.
