Surf Spot Leitfaden
Coxos Ericeira
Inserted in a landscape that has remained pristine since it began to be frequented in the early 1970s, the Coxos wave is the one that best symbolizes the spirit of local surfers and the values by which the World Surfing Reserve is governed: protection, preservation, sustainability. It is formed by a reef whose bathymetry presents a smooth and uniform slope up to the middle of the bay. It has a classic pointbreak configuration, with its break line following the coastline from beginning to end. It is always a strong wave that presents different sections and works with various swell directions, and in ideal conditions provides tubes of several seconds in length. The dedication of the locals to this wave was the initial spark that triggered the whole application process to become a World Surfing Reserve
