Esteiro is a beach break located in a scenic area that offers surfers a decent spot for catching waves. The environment can get a bit crowded during the summer months, especially with tourists looking to enjoy the sun and surf. It’s a relaxed vibe overall, but be prepared to share the waves when the crowds roll in.

The surf here is pretty consistent, with good quality waves that usually favor the low tide. You'll find lefts breaking off the peak in the middle of the bay, but rights are also available depending on the swell. Esteiro works best with a northwest swell direction, handling sizes up to 3ft (about 0.9 meters). The wave breaks over sand, making it a safe option for many. For the best experience, aim for a southeast wind, and you’ll find the waves are best at low to mid tide. It’s a spot suited for intermediate surfers, so make sure you’re comfortable in the water before paddling out.

Keep in mind that despite the sometimes busy atmosphere, Esteiro does not offer beach facilities like showers or restrooms, so plan accordingly. Just grab your board and have fun riding the waves!
