Surf spot guide · Alentejo, Portugal
Exposed Tróia beach break with inconsistent short lefts and rights on a sandy bottom.
Tróia is an exposed beach break on the Atlantic-facing Tróia Peninsula in Alentejo, rather than in Lisbon proper. The sandy-bottom wave produces short lefts and rights but is inconsistent. Southwest swell and northeast offshore wind offer the clearest setup. Dangerous rip currents require attention, even on days when it looks beginner-friendly.
