    Great morning in São Pedro. Definitely the best this year. Sun & small waves. We were the first to arrive there, so, for an hour, the beach was ours! Afterwards it started to get a little bit crowded, but we already had a smile on our faces. It was a great weekend.

    Finally, sunny days, with nice waves are back! We went back to Caparica, and although we weren’t it the right spot, we’ve managed to get some fun. Later on, we’ve seen some pretty good surf in nearby beaches. In this picture, you can see Miguel, a surfer from Ericeira, getting some action.

    As the swell keeps pumping big waves all over the place, surfers can look for different surf spots. Sometimes with the big eye of the Portuguese navy.

    A big swell it’s hitting the Portuguese shore. Windguru predicts a 3.6/6.6 meter waves for the next few days, so this may be my last post.

    Just to remember the last time I hit the water. Sigh… it was last year… (no, it’s not me in the photo)

    After a mini season surfing in São Pedro, Sunday we decided to go back to Costa da Caparica in a search for better waves. The conditions were good, small waves, good wind, not too crowded… and if it weren’t for a small leg injury, it would have been a great surfing morning. But when there’s…

    Last weekend there were no “giant” waves as expected, but there were some pretty good waves to have some fun. Enough waves to have another edition of the Estoril Surf Festival. The photo above is from the Skimboard championship, in São Pedro’s beach (Estoril). The Longboard European Championship will take place on the 13th and…

    Everywhere is the same. All over the world and in every language. There will always be a bunch of local surfers that don’t want anybody else on their front yard. Obviously, they love to go on surf trips to their neighbour’s front yard, but that’s a different story. Some of the best days I had…

    This morning we’ve decided to go back to Caparica to see how things were, after the changes. It was a strange day of surf, but we’ve seen some guys having a ball. Like the guy on the photo, for instance. It’s Paulo Jacinto with a pretty cool surfboard from… Paulo Jacinto Surfboards. Check out his…

    Today’s surfing conditions weren’t the best, but I really wanted to get in the water, and ten days had passed since my last surfing day, so… No more excuses needed. Woke up at 7AM, left my girl in bed and went surfing. This picture was taken after the surfing session, in Parede’s beach, where I’ve…

    Coming this weekend, the Forum Algarve Four Oceans – European Longboard Tour 2008. It will take place in Faro, and seems to include a Retro surfboards competition and Stand Up Paddle demonstrations. Who’s coming? More info at Conquilha . (One thing I can’t understand is the lack of information, particularly in English)

    Perfect waves at São Pedro. If I wasn’t so tired, and so out of shape it would have been a beautiful morning. But it was nice, though. A special note to the number of surfers in the water. There were less than ten when I arrived. There were more than fifty a few hours later.…

    Skeleton Bay, Africa – A Google Earth Challenge II discovery An amazing wave. I didn’t had to time to search more information about this spot, but this is amazing. This guy, Cory Lopez, on his first wave of the day, surfs for 1min and 21 sec. I’m still drooling. I can believe that after a…
