Praia dos Mosteiros is a surf spot located south of town, known for its scenic beauty and laid-back vibes. It features a righthander wave that offers different conditions depending on the tide. While it’s not the most famous surf spot, it can still provide a good session for those looking to enjoy a cruisey day in the water.

The wave at Mosteiros works best with a west swell and can handle sizes of up to 3 feet (about 0.9 meters). You can expect some fun point breaks that peel nicely to the right. The best time to paddle out is during low, mid, or high tide, so you have flexibility there. The wave can pack some power in the pocket, especially on a steep performance wall, but be mindful of the shallow areas that can catch you off guard. This spot is recommended for intermediate surfers who are looking to refine their skills.

There are some basic facilities at the beach, including a lifeguard, showers, and restrooms, which make it a bit easier for surfers spending the day here. If you’re planning to hang around, there is also camping nearby that can add to the convenience of your surf trip.
