Aveiro
Aveiro is a beautiful coastal city as well as a region in Portugal known for its picturesque canals, colorful moliceiro boats, and stunning beaches. While Aveiro may not be as famous for surfing as some other Portuguese coastal destinations like Peniche or Ericeira, or the Algarve it still offers some opportunities for surfing wide beach breaks.
Beach Break
Areas in the ocean where the waves break over a sandy bottom are known as beach breaks. The waves at beach breaks are constantly changing because the sand is often shifting because of tides, currents, and storms. You can be surfing flawless peeling lefts one day and close-out waves the next at the same surf spot. The surf break could be in one location one day and 200 yards along the shoreline the next. The constantly shifting bottom produces a very unpredictable and dynamic surf break. Because they have a softer and safer bottom than reef breaks, beach breaks are excellent places for beginning surfers to practice.
