Praia Azul is a surf beach in Santa Cruz, Portugal.
Praia Azul welcomes surfers of different levels, from beginner to more experienced, depending on the sea state.
The bottom is sand. It is the most forgiving bottom for learning and for wipeouts, though the sandbanks shift through the year.
Praia Azul 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.
