Praia da Foz do Arelho Swimming Forecast
Foz do Arelho · Portugal
Praia da Foz do Arelho scores 73/100 for swimming today at its best ability level (expert). The beach faces NW. A dual-character beach where a lagoon meets the Atlantic: an exposed, WNW-facing ocean side with a powerful, inconsistent sandy break, best on a west swell at mid tide; a sheltered, flat-water lagoon side suits beginner kitesurfing, windsurfing, paddleboarding and sailing. The two are split by a hazardous tidal breach channel and rock shoals. Kitesurfing and windsurfing aren't officially permitted ocean-side in the main bathing season (15 June-15 Sept).
