Moledo do Minho is a surf spot located in northern Portugal, known for its scenic views and variety of surf conditions. It's not the most popular surf destination, which means you might find some space to breathe compared to more crowded beaches. The area has a laid-back vibe, making it a decent choice if you’re looking to catch waves without the hustle and bustle of larger tourist spots.

The best waves at Moledo typically come from the NorthWest, but you can also find swells from the SouthWest. It handles swell sizes from around 2ft (0.6m) and can be a good choice for intermediate surfers. You'll notice it tends to break over sand, and at the southern end of the beach, there's a reef that produces some fun lefts when the conditions are right. Expect right-hand waves mainly due to the river that creates a sandbar. For optimal surfing, low to mid tides work best, and if the wind is coming from the SouthEast, you’re in for a pretty solid session.

Even though the spot might not be super consistent, there are times when the conditions line up perfectly for a great surf day. Since it is influenced by the river, currents can vary, offering both challenges and opportunities depending on the day. If you’re looking to explore a different surf experience away from the bigger crowds, Moledo do Minho might just be worth a shot.
