Guincho · spot guide
Why choose this spot?
Moana teaches surfing at Guincho, which official tourism information also identifies with windsurfing and kite. Compare the different conditions each sport needs.
How to read the conditions
For surf, read period and wind alongside wave height. For wind sports, also assess gusts and the selected launch.
Getting there and meeting up
For Moana, use its Praia do Guincho / Estrada do Abano directions; the general beach marker is not the school meeting point.
Which coastline does this cover?
The score compares general conditions. Guincho’s breaking waves, tides and currents require a local assessment.
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.
