Surfing Arrifana

Arrifana is a surf beach in Aljezur, Portugal, with 1 surf school.

What level is Arrifana for?

Arrifana has no fixed level, and that is the question Surf Booking answers every day: the same sea suits a beginner and does not suit an advanced surfer, or the other way round. On this page the sea at this beach is read hour by hour and by level — beginner, intermediate and advanced — for the next 7 days, and the verdict is this beach's, not the region's.

What is the bottom like at Arrifana?

The bottom is mixed sand and rock. It helps to know where the rocks are, especially at low tide.

When does Arrifana work best?

Arrifana is an exposed beach that picks up much of the Atlantic swell, so it works often through the year. It is usually best with swell from NW-W. The beach faces West.
