Azores
Azores
The Azores is an autonomous region of Portugal that consists of 9 islands. Most surf spots can be found on the islands of São Miguel and Terceira and what – besides amazingly stunning landscapes – makes the journey to the Azores worth chasing the surf far away from Portugal’s mainland are its quality waves and uncrowded lineups. During winter time sets on the Azores can get quite big and strong and a certain level of experience is recommended.
Beginner Level
The term “Beginner Surfer” refers to a surfer who has only recently begun taking surf lessons and starting to become familiar with the sport’s fundamentals, usually surfing a long soft top surfboard. After a few hours, a Beginner Surfer is able to maintain balance, paddling and catch some whitewater waves. In the end, an Advanced Beginner can catch a wave, get up on the board, and ride the breaking wave straight toward the beach.
