Why choose this spot?

How to read the conditions
Do not use wave height alone: read period, wind and local tide context alongside the waves actually breaking at the beach.
Getting there and meeting up
Use Praia de Carcavelos for the beach and Avenida Marginal for the school; confirm the meeting section.
Which coastline does this cover?
The beach marker is an approximate forecast reference. The score does not assess your surf level, the current sandbank or the tide.
The map marker is a forecast reference, not a confirmed beach entrance or parking location. The model may not resolve local differences within the coast. Coast orientation is unverified, so the score has no coast-relative direction adjustment. The wind’s source direction is still shown separately.
