About the beach

Prainha

Small sandy beach at Baleal, with short rights and long lefts; one of the easiest waves in the area. Works from mid to high tide. Good for lessons.

Surfing Prainha

Prainha is a surf beach in Peniche, Portugal.

What level is Prainha for?

Prainha 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 Prainha?

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

When does Prainha work best?

Prainha works with the right mix of swell and wind on the day. The beach faces Northeast.
