Costa Caparica, South of Lisbon.

This is where I did most of my surfing on the Portugal trip ...... fun clean waves. It never got much over 3ft but there was the odd bigger set that came through making the shorebreak nice 'n heavy!

The local surfers here were very good but the atmosphere in the water was friendly enough - so long as you gave them respect. The fishermen that fish off the big rock jetties seem to hate surfers though. There was a big fight on the beach with a local fishermen grabing a longboarder by the throat. It took four people to calm him down and prevent anything more serious. Yikes.
