Spot guide

Surfing São Sebastião

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

What level is São Sebastião for?

São Sebastião 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 Sebastião?

The bottom is rock. It calls for extra care and local knowledge, especially at low tide.

When does São Sebastião work best?

São Sebastião has partial swell exposure: it works on many days but benefits from a bigger swell or a favourable direction. It is usually best with swell from W-NW. The beach faces West.
