Surfing São Julião

São Julião is a surf beach in Ericeira, Portugal, with 1 surf school.

What level is São Julião for?

São Julião 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 São Julião?

The bottom is sand. It is the most forgiving bottom for learning and for wipeouts, though the sandbanks shift through the year.

When does São Julião work best?

São Julião works with the right mix of swell and wind on the day. The beach faces West.
