Surfing in Praia da Consolacao, Peniche, Portugal
June 23rd, 2009Ben Copping and I are off to Praia da Consolacao this Saturday for a week’s worth of surfing and relaxation. The beach is situated just south of the fishing town of Peniche, about 80km or so north of Lisbon in Portugal.
There area is blessed with quality breaks of all kinds including, reefs, beachies, points and even some big wave spots.
Forthcoming surf trip to Praia da Consolação, Peniche, Portgual
May 16th, 2009On the 27th June, Beej and I will be taking off for Peniche, Portugal for a week’s surf trip. It will be my second time in Portugal (the first being back in August 2007) and I am hoping we will get some good rides.
We are going to stay at Casa D’Arriba near Praia da Consolação, just down the coast from a spot called Supertubos. Those of you who can’t speak Portugese can probably guess what that means? If not there is a little picture below to point you in the general direction. Fingers crossed we’ll get some swell. I think we’ll both be happy to get something resembling at least half the size of this wave!
