Praia Área Medio Swimming Forecast

Praia Área Medio scores 72/100 for swimming today at its best ability level (expert). The beach faces S. A small, 100 m semi-sheltered cove on a ria's south shore, with a mixed rock-and-sand bottom, white sand, and calm water, set among attractive vegetation. Sheltered from Atlantic swell, it suits swimming and calm-water paddling rather than surfing or kitesurfing. No known dangers are documented, but there is no lifeguard cover and only minimal facilities. Entry and exit over the mixed rock-and-sand bottom are likely easier around mid to high tide.
