Hazards rip along the pier on bigger days · fishing boats and launch ramp in the water · keep clear of the fishing port and boat launch · boulders at the south end of the beach · crowded when the bigger spots in town are maxed out

Shared forecast The offshore forecast here is shared with Calada, Coxos, Foz do Lizandro, Matadouro, Pedra Branca, Praia do Sul, Ribeira d'Ilhas, São Julião. Wave models resolve about 8 km, so neighbouring beaches read the same swell. What separates them is orientation, seabed and tide, not the forecast.
