Praia do Almirante Reis Windsurf Forecast

Praia do Almirante Reis scores 60/100 for windsurf today at its best ability level (intermediate). The beach faces S. A small, south-facing urban pebble beach in central Funchal, artificially created between two rock groynes that form a sheltered lagoon. It suits calm, quiet swimming and sunbathing rather than watersports - kitesurfing in the bay is directed to a beach further along the coast. The pebble bottom and steep entry into the water warrant swimming shoes. No on-beach facilities, though a promenade with bars and restaurants runs alongside.
