Guincho

Wing Kite Advanced

An exposed Atlantic beach near Lisbon where the summer Nortada blows strong and gusty side-offshore over sizeable swell and cold water. It is a demanding wave spot, not a learning beach. For experienced riders who want waves and power; beginners in the area go to the lagoons at Óbidos or Albufeira instead.
