Praia da Ilha do Farol Swimming Forecast
Farol · Portugal
Praia da Ilha do Farol scores 79/100 for swimming today at its best ability level (expert). The beach faces SE. A remote, ferry-only barrier-island beach in a protected natural park, its long south-southeast Atlantic shore producing an exposed, rarely-crowded right-hand beach break — mostly flat in summer, most consistent in May, best on a falling mid tide. The lagoon-facing shore is calm and waveless, with no currents. A nearby tidal inlet has very strong currents and should be avoided. Lifeguards operate in summer near the lighthouse; nudism is not permitted here.
