Praia da Cruz Paddleboard Forecast
Ribeira da Azenha · Portugal
Praia da Cruz scores 79/100 for paddleboard today at its best ability level (expert). The beach faces NW. A remote, NW-facing Atlantic beach in a natural park, long and sandy with a low cliff and pebbles at its base. A beach/sandbar break with no reef offers surf and bodyboarding in a wild, uncrowded setting. At high tide the sand narrows sharply, so low-to-mid tide suits access best; the pebbles are then a footing hazard. The northern end is a naturist zone since 2019. Lifeguards cover the bathing season, with year-round patrols beyond it.
