Ben 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.

On the 27th June, Beej and I will be taking off for Peniche,Â PortugalÂ for a week’s surf trip. It will be my second time inÂ PortugalÂ (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 daÂ ConsolaÃ§Ã£o, 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!
