The Wave
North-northeast offshore wind and south swell are the clean pairing.
Treat it as a low-commitment town-beach check because it can stay tiny even when the forecast looks promising.

Albufeira
Albufeira is the Algarve town-beach surf check: sheltered, rare, and defined more by its city frontage than by wave fame. When it does break, it is a simple left-leaning beach wave that only really matters to locals and visitors checking the coast after a south swell. Get the latest surfing conditions, forecast, and tide details for Albufeira in Algarve.
