Located in South Algarve, Portugal, Lagos is a fun beach break that offers up some good peaks with faces for carves and hacks. The waves here can be tricky to surf and break for up to 50 meters over a sand bottom. Good range for beginners to advanced surfers across the beach.
What are the best surf conditions for Lagos?
Gets good between waist high and double overhead. We recommend riding a longboard when smaller and a shortboard when the size picks up. This break is suitable for all levels of surfer. The surf here usually has a wave (5/10) and will generally have a crew on it, especially in summers (7/10). The best winds are from the Northwest or Northeast. The best swells are from the South, Southwest, Southeast, or West. Works on a mid to high tide best.
